Random Acts Of Kindness - Corporate Team Building Activity in Vancouver



This is Kristen with another corporate event update.

It’s late February and our latest event took us out to Vancouver, British Columbia for a Random Acts of Kindness event. Luckily, we had a beautiful, sunny day in the city. This event was held for a large group of IT consultants. Utilizing the Canadian Outback App, team went out on to the downtown Vancouver community and made a difference by performing simple acts of kindness. This event was perfect for the group as everyone in the group was international. Random Acts of Kindness was a great way for the group to get out and explore the unfamiliar city.

Crime Investigators - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



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

Today we are in the heart of downtown Toronto, working with an investment company for our exciting Crime Investigators event. This group of 20 really enjoyed it, because it allowed them to work with people in their team that they don’t necessarily always get the chance to work with on a day to day basis. You could clearly see the enthusiasm in this group as they created the fun team names, like “Inspector Gadget” team, and “Detective Murdock” team. We setup some very fun crime scene locations for this event, one was at the top level of a parking garage, we had one at a park, out at Tim Horton’s, and the group loved the variety and is excited to get out and walk around after a morning of meetings. This group was very detail oriented while searching the scenes as we had several funny items show up at our forensics lab in the end. There were paper clips, grass, umbrellas, and even a first aid kit and a cowboy hat were found. The presentations at the end proved this group was very creative and showed that everyone demonstrated excellent team work and collaboration.

Wild Goose Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



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

Today we are in downtown Toronto with some economic developers running a custom Wild Goose Chase. This group of 80 had a long day of meetings and wanted to end on a fun note while keeping everyone engaged and motivated. At this company’s conference, they had exhibitors from different organizations included in the chase. Teams had to interact with boot staffs to earn the big points in this game. They completed fun photos and video challenges using the Canadian Outback App as they ran in and around the hotel area. This is an excellent opportunity for teams to get to know some of the products and services these exhibitors were showcasing while also building team cohesion and having a good laugh together at the same time. The challenge submissions proved that this group was very creative and competitive. Everyone especially loved the challenge that brought them out to Nathan Philips square and taking awkward family photos.

Custom Event - Corporate Team Building Activity in Toronto



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

Today we are downtown Toronto with a pharmaceutical company. Today’s a special event because it was completely customized to fit the client’s needs. We called it “The Collaboration Games”. We had approximately 125 people split into 14 teams. They all came together as a team to complete trivia games while we asked True or False questions, Pictionary, and Charades. Then we played a series of warm up challenges where everyone on every team participated in solving sports puzzles, and discussing plates into baskets.  From there we had a head to head winner take all tournaments, where teams battle their way through big and bold challenges. One of my personal favourites was watching teams wear silly costumes and take turns riding a children’s bicycle. It was super fun. This group had the most energy and team spirit that I’ve ever seen before. They all supported and cheered each other on as each team was playing for points that would translate into dollars for their own team’s local charity. Overall, this group loved the event and was the perfect way to enhanced their meetings in a fun and philanthropic way.
