All team building games, exercises, activities and adventures are conducted with the guidance of our creative, professional staff – each devoted to making your meeting or training program your best ever. We use highly trained and skilled facilitators with backgrounds in business, team building, industrial psychology, organizational development, education and the military.

From initial contact, to program presentation, to follow-up consultation – you will be working with the same people to ensure that quality and service exceed your expectations.

Our primary objective is to provide fun and effective team building games, exercises and adventures that meet your objectives.

The process for determining which program best meets your needs involves three simple steps:


1. Identify Your Objectives

We define our team building programs in three categories to help you match your objectives to appropriate program options.

  • Team Spirit Events 
…To celebrate your team’s success with style!
 Our skilled facilitators can stage a wide array of team building games and role-playing exercises, all of them structured to build teamwork among the participants. But they can also be played as a just-for-fun employee reward. Either way, the emphasis is always on building team spirit.
  • Strategic Challenges
 …To build valuable skills for your team’s success!
 Strategic Challenges are similar to Team Spirit Events but with a special emphasis on specific workplace issues. We deal with organizational problems that run a gamut from inter-company rivalries to developing teamwork in new or reorganized work groups. The emphasis is on team skills, so extensive debriefing is used to ensure the transfer of learning from our playground to your workplace.
  • Adventure Activities 
…To reward your team with fun and excitement!
 Adventure Activities teach teamwork in exciting outdoor settings. Our certified guides will take your team hiking or teach them the fundamentals of rock climbing or rappelling. In some locations we can even arrange canyoneering, white water rafting and offroad tours. Keep in mind that Adventure Activities may be seasonal and depend on suitable locations.

2. Select Your Program

Choose from one of our popular standard programs or let us custom design a program just for you.
