Team Building

---

The Build-A-Bike ® Team Building Workshop and charity event is a fun, challenging program. Participants are divided into smaller groups to solve specific challenges in order to build bicycles for young children from the YMCA, Boys and Girls Club, or another worthy children’s charity in your local area!  For many of these kids, this will be the first bike they will have ever owned, and your gift means so much to these young people. 

Want to have an absolute BLAST on your next team building adventure?  Then the Ace Race ® Mini-Golf for Charity is for you. Participants build a mini-golf course out of non-perishable food items, such as Macaroni and Cheese boxes, canned goods, and spaghetti sauce jars.  These items are donated to a local food bank at the end of an event. This philanthropic team building event organizes your participants into small groups. Each group acquires “materials” to build a single hole of a custom golf course right in the banquet hall or meeting room.  Each team competes to see who can complete the course first. 

This is the original teddy bear team building event! Each participant has puzzles to solve and codes to decipher in order to acquire the resources that they need (part by part) to build a series of custom teddy bears, bunnies, cows, cats, etc. 

With an examination of individual personality types, participants explore the strengths and talents that they add to the group. When we tap into those strengths, we all accomplish more! The bears are donated to Ronald McDonald House, a children's hospital, or fire department.

The aMAZEing Builders Team Building event is our newest philanthropic team building activity, and it is quickly becoming very popular with our clients. The main focus of this team building program is to improve communication — both verbally and non-verbally — among team members. Participants must navigate through a self-made obstacle course blindfolded, while other team members give them directions. It is fast-paced and hilarious. The event donates dog toys or school supplies to local charities. 

The Camaraderie Quest team scavenger hunt is a high-tech treasure hunt that is custom-made for your group and location.  Each  team is given an iPad. Using the iPads, the groups must problem solve, and work together taking group photos and videos. At the conclusion, we collect the iPads  and score the results. A donation to a charity is made on behalf of your company.  (This event can be done without a donation to a charity)

Unfortunately, your fantastically wealthy Great Uncle has just passed away. However, he has left a will with specific instructions that his entire fortune is to be inherited by his one, true heir. Now, you just have to prove that you are this heir. Your uncle’s attorney enters the room and plays a somewhat tongue-in-cheek video last will and testament video, The audience is divided into small teams, and the race is on. The briefcase contains a six-digit lock, and the first team to open the case wins. Unlike most escape room challenges, the goal of this activity is for teams to solve the puzzle. (Most escape rooms are created so that teams are more likely to fail.) The fun here is that when teams work together and communicate clearly with each other, they solve the puzzles more quickly. (This event can be done with a charity donation)

I’m In It to Win It begins with an introductory icebreaker activity that organizes the group into small teams. The host (emcee) then explains each of the activities and shows a visual example. Then, groups are allowed time to practice each activity and determine which team member has the best chance of completing the task quickly. Then the competition starts. Each team starts at a different activity. In addition, teams score points based on how fast the designated team member accomplishes each task. The host tallies the score after each round. Finally, a champion team is crowned. 

Ready for a little adventure? The Charade — Murder Mystery team building event starts off just like any other group activity — with some fun exercises designed to improve communication. However, before too long, something goes terribly wrong! One of your executive team falls to the floor — a victim of murder! Everyone in the room is a suspect, and your group is divided into CSI groups to try to uncover the mystery. Each team has to search for clues, interrogate witnesses, and check alibis to discover the culprit.  The biggest challenge, however, is discovering which clues point to the murderer and which clues were placed on the scene to throw you off the scent.
