Minute To Win It - Corporate Team Building Activity in Mississauga



Hi everyone, it’s Dolena here from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events, ready with another corporate update.

We are in Mississauga this evening with a large marketing company competing with one of my favorite events – Minute To Win It. They had a large group of 100 sales and marketing reps who have lots of energy and outstanding team spirit. This group was very competitive, which made the event so much more high energy and fun. I would say they were competitive to the point where they started playing very creatively to try and score more points. It was all in good fun and our Canadian Outback staff had a blast working with this group. Some of the crowd favorite challenges were “On the rebound” and “Suck It Up”. We finished the event with “Chip Flip” where one representative from each team had to stay in the round to earn more points by flipping poker chips from their elbow to their hand. This was a blast because it was do or die and head to head. Overall, this group loved the event and it was the perfect way to end the long day of meetings.

Team Pursuit - Corporate Team Building Activity in Banff



This is Kristen with another corporate event update.

Our latest event took us out to Banff National Park for a Team Pursuit. This event was for a destination management company out of Toronto. They were hosting an annual conference for over 400 people. This event only accommodated about 65 people and had teams utilizing technology on their smartphones to complete a series of challenges that tests skill, physical ability and mental capacity. Teams had a great time in their rooms doing the challenges, working together, and ultimately, winning their golden ticket to find out where their dinner was.

Crime Investigators - Corporate Team Building Activity in Mississauga

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

Today we are in Mississauga with a team of tech solutions experts who needed a meaningful office escape that was dynamic and fun, but still challenged them to put their heads together. Crime Investigators was the event of choice and it proved to be the perfect match for a team of logical and highly analytical thinkers. When they arrived, they were split into special investigation units and briefed on a mysterious crime that was committed in the hotel. As a group, they had to visit multiple crime scenes, document evidence, search for clues and rendezvous with an informant who had valuable information. As the day went on, our investigators worked as a team to piece together what happened and ultimately solve the crime. Once each group thought they had their culprit, they had to present a media briefing, outlining their version of events. Sounds easy? You might be surprised.

Crime Investigators - Corporate Team Building Activity in Woodbridge

It’s Dolena from Canadian Outback Adventures and Event with another corporate event update.

Today we traveled to Woodbridge to the head office of a tire company to run the Crime Investigator event. 14 executives participated after a full morning of meetings. It was funny for them to see their office space transform into in area filled with crime scenes. They really enjoyed running around as investigation experts. This group was incredibly fun to work with and had super high energy. They were very detail oriented and investigated every inch of each crime scene. They were also very competitive, to the point where they were playfully trying to throw the other teams off by setting up suspicious items at each crime scene. They had a great sense of humor. It gave everyone a good laugh and they all demonstrated great team work and excellent collaboration. This event was a great way to change up a regular work day at the office and incorporate team bonding before the New Year.

The Apprentice - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto

Hello, it’s Dolena from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

Today we are downtown Toronto working with a national banking company on The Apprentice. We had a rather small group today, 7 people, who are VPs of different departments. Although it was small, we were not lacking in fun and creativity. One of the goals for this event was to practice collaboration while working together. I have to say, this was definitely achieved today. Both teams did an excellent job of sharing ideas and coming up with the ultimate children’s bike. One team created a technology pony bike while the other had a Minnie and Mickey Mouse bike. The decorations were well thought out and unique, but it was the pictures in the end that really made the scores close. Everyone worked together and participated in a way that suited their skills. What also motivated these teams to do a good job was that these bikes were being donated to a local mother shelter. All around, there were good vibes and positive teamwork.

Crime Investigators - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto

Hello, it’s Dolena from Canadian Outback Adventures & Events with another corporate event update.

Today we are in North York, Ontario, at the Black Creek Pioneer village where a local tech company has to solve a crime with our CrimeInvestigators event. This group of 25 proved to be very analytical. They examined each crime scene very carefully and collected all kinds of evidence. Some of which had nothing to do with the case, but this group showed you could never be too detail oriented. We received gum, scrap paper, basically, anything in their reach, showed up in our forensics lab. This group demonstrated major focus in the last bit of the activity where they calculated their findings and put together their final report. I think we may have found a great fall back career for some of the participants. By the end of the event, everyone was laughing and enjoyed the final presentations. Overall, this group had a great time and loved finishing their work day off with a unique team building event.

Minute To Win It - Corporate Team Building Acitivty in Toronto



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

Today we are at a hotel and conference center in Toronto where we hosted a group of 80 finance professionals. This was the group’s first international summit and we got to meet participants from Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the United States and from all across Canada. Our Minute ToWin It event was perfect for bringing everyone together and pumping energy into the group before their evening dinner and awards. Teams got to run through 12different games that were equal mix of challenging and silly – Elephant March, That Blows, Face The Cookie, Stack Attack, all the classics were there and players got to see how well they fair in games that are much more difficult than they look. Competition was stiff and as it often does, everything came down to the final nail-biting rounds to decide which team would walk away with the title.
