The Apprentice - Corporate Team Building Activity in Winnipeg

Hi everyone, this is Nick with Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

Today we are at a hotel in downtown Winnipeg, where we hosted 30 engineers participating in the Apprentice. The group had representatives from every Canadian province and territory for an afternoon that let them bond and fun and light hearted ways. Being engineering professionals, it was no surprise that the group’s attention to detail and safety and budget awareness was top notch. Some people might say, “You can take the engineer out of the office, but you can’t take the office out of the engineer” though don’t be fooled. These engineers got the chance to show their wild side, breaking into song to earn extra credit, cycling around the room and delivering some highly competitive, and often musical pitches. The enthusiasm was incredible.

Iron Chef Barbeque Challenge - Corporate Team Building Activity in Ottawa

It’s Dolena here with another corporate event update from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events.

Today we are in the nation’s capital – Ottawa, where a national auto shop company is participating in the Iron Chef Barbeque Challenge. This group of 45 was split into seven teams where they have to cook a four-course meal, create a menu, and a beverage, while filling the pressures of beating the clock. The teams delegated roles and heated up the park with their delicious dishes. It was a great opportunity for everyone to contribute to their team with their own unique skills such as time management, creativity, presentation skills, communication, and of course, their talents with the grill. We had some teams make their very own homemade candy which was delicious, and sauces, and some teams made their dishes look beautiful – totally restaurant quality. With everyone being from all over Canada in this group, it was a great way for colleagues to take a break from their meetings and get to know each other in a fun and unique environment.

Corporate Castaways - Corporate Team Building Activity in Jasper

Hi everyone! It’s Michelle with Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

We have just finished a Corporate Castaways at the Jasper Park lodge in beautiful Jasper, British Columbia. We did our event down by Lake Treefoil which is on property at the Jasper Park Lodge. This setting was perfect, very Tree’d area, with a gorgeous lake view, no wind and it was a beautiful day in Jasper. It was about 27 degrees, so the group had a fantastic time completing cerebral and physical challenges as a team. The group themselves were from a law office that has offices in Calgary and Edmonton so this was a good weekend away for them to come together as a team, complete a variety of team building events including our Corporate Castaways. The group themselves had a fantastic time, the participants had a lot of fun and really got to work together to solve the challenges and really help each other through every aspect of the day. They were a very encouraging group and we had all different kinds of departments with us on that day and they all got to work together and, kind of, have a fun activity. It was a little different than anything they had done before, so they were extremely happy.

Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto

It’s Dolena here with another corporate event update.

Today we are in downtown Toronto with a local company running the Amazing Chase. This group of 40 had a blast finding different locations in the downtown core and completing fun and unique challenges. This particular event had a customized route which allowed them to visit local hospitals that they have been facilitating projects with. This allowed the group to see firsthand their company’s local involvement. Some of their favourite challenges were singing “Barbie Girl” and “Hit Me Baby One More Time”, playing a game of “Leap Frog”, and building a human pyramid. There was no shortage of laughter with this group. We ended at a local pub where food and drinks were ready to be served for each team’s arrival. This high energy group thoroughly enjoyed themselves and loved being outside in the beautiful weather.

The Apprentice - Corporate Team Building Activity in Montebello, Quebec

It’s Dolena with another corporate event update.

Today we are in the gorgeous town of Montebello, Quebec, at the Fairmont Chateau Montebello, with a local pharmaceutical company. Approximately 150 people participated in the Apprentice bike build today. This group had a lot of fun decorating, building and pitching their children’s bicycles. This group doesn’t work out of their head office, which means they don’t get as many opportunities to give back to the community. So this event was a great way to do that because they donated 18 of these bikes to the Boys and Girls Club of La Salle. Half of this group spoke French which was great having a mixture of languages and our bilingual staff had a blast interacting and assisting everyone. Everyone had the chance to think outside the box, be creative and work with their colleagues that they normally don’t get the chance to. Everyone had so much fun and they were pleased with donating the bikes.

If you’d like to give back to your community in a unique way while also having a great team building experience, please visit our website and speak with one of our event solutions experts.
