Secret Agent 007 - Corporate Team Building Activity in Portland

Hey guys! This is James with American Outback Adventures & Events with another event update.

Today we’re in Portland, and of all things, the sun is shining. It’s a rarity for Portland but it happened. So we took advantage of that. We had a group of entrepreneurs that came into the city and they wanted to experience Portland in a way that they might not be able to otherwise. So we took a little bit of team building, a little bit of sightseeing, and we combined it into a program that we call Secret Agent 007. Each team member is gonna be out in the city playing the role of a secret agent trying to take down the infamous, the infernal, the dubious Dr Black. Now, today these guys went out, they brought a lot of excitement and energy into the program. To dig a little bit deeper, we started out with an ice breaker, we had the group tell each other about their names, and then we transitioned from that into the code names that they were going to be using for the program, and then ultimately what their team name was gonna be. Names carry a lot of weight in this program. They headed into the city, they gathered their intel, they made their observations, they completed their tasks, made it back to headquarters, assembled their file reports, but in the end there could be only one. Regardless, they showed up with smiles on their faces, sweat pouring down their face and it was a great day had by all.

If you’re interested in scheduling your group for a meaningful team building outing or experience, check us out on americanoutback.net. We’d love to have you on the next one.

Secret Agent 007 - Corporate Team Building Activity in New York

Hi there, Shannon here with another corporate event update from American Outback Adventures & Events.

Today we did a Secret Agent 007 in the heart of New York City, Times Square. Events in New York City are always a little tricky, but we were able to highlight some pretty well known areas of the city, while facilitating a fun, analytical and engaging event. Teams visited Bryant Park, the New York City Library, and the infamous Knickerbocker hotel. They loved the agent skills tests we had them perform. The martini tasting, the target shooting, it was all a ton of fun. And of course, they were on the edge of their seats as we read off the real answers at the end of the event. This international group had a fantastic, successful 007 here with us in New York City.

Amazing Chase - Corporate Team Building Activity in San Francisco

Hi, this is Emma from American Outback Adventures & Events.

And I have just returned from doing our new Amazing Chase in San Francisco. This is a great city to get out and explore, there’s so much to see, do and just have a good time with your co-workers. This group got to visit Chinatown, the famous gate with the lion head, and then they headed down to the waterfront visiting the Embarcadero, Fisherman’s wharf, the Ghirardelli station where they got to do some chocolate sampling. That was an amazing challenge, we brought all the extras to the finish and everyone loved the chocolate. Towards the end of the event, when all the teams made it back, they were able to share stories and experiences and, of course, all the photos and videos were shared around after the event and I’m sure they had a good time looking back at the memories.

If you think that your company would benefit from an exciting adventurous event like this one, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Secret Agent 007 Corporate Team Building Activity in New York

Hi there! Shannon here with another corporate event update from American Outback Adventures & Events.

Today we had a custom Secret Agent 007 in Manhattan, New York city. Our client was a legal firm who we have worked with in the past. They bought out a local restaurant for the night to have a social night with their partners and associates. The night was optional, so all the guest list was expected to be about 65 people, we were not certain how many participants would actually be there before the event. We ended up with about 45 participants. This event was definitely custom to this group. The client wanted the 007 theme and activities but needed the event to entirely take place in 60 minutes and have teams of 6 to 8 people. What we did to accommodate the client tonight was that we picked out four 007 activities, target shooting, map reading, code breaking and Martini tasting. Each agent skills test had its own station and host to run it. Every station would have 2 teams at it at any given time and each set of teams would have 10 minutes at each station. Teams carried a passport with them for authorizing agents to mark if they had passed or failed that particular task. If they pass the test, they received evidence pertaining to a case under current investigation by our organization. After every team had taken their turn at each of the 4 stations, we handed out a final report for each team to fill out with the best of their abilities, analyzing the evidence they had collected. Well some of the stations had teams scratching their heads and even struggling, this group of analytics loved the challenge - another huge success for American Outback Adventures & Events.

What could be better than leaving your cold city in the fall and taking your awesome co-workers to Vegas? How about a 007 themed teambuilding event for the afternoon? Secret codes, poker, Martini tasting, they’re the perfect group activity for the Vegas strip. All wrapped up with some great team work, problem solving and a day of learning new things about the people you work with everyday.

They were of course rewarded at the end and everyone had a great time doing it.

Marybeth here from American Outback Adventures and Events with another corporate event update. 

Last week were at North Hills Raleigh, North Carolina running our Secret Agent 007 event for a bio-pharmaceutical development and commercial outsourcing company. These groups of 65 people gathered from across the world were given the mission to find Dr. Black’s new headquarters and bring him to justice. Teams needed to visit agents in the area to complete tasks in order to obtain information. Teams had to show their commitment to the agency by demonstrating their eye and hand coordination using Nerf guns and targets and performing their best impersonations. Teams also had to visit the restaurant, Mira, to taste and identify martini ingredients. The event was a perfect break from their day meetings and everyone really got into character and had a great time getting outside.

Secret Agent 007 Corporate Team Building Activity in Scottsdale

Hey everyone its Michelle of American Outback Adventures and Events with another corporate event update. 

We have just finished our Secret Agent 007 event for an insurance company in Scottsdale, Arizona.  We were able to complete this event at a golf course in the area. We had our undercover agents being our staff situated at different spots along the golf course and teams were able to go and interact with these people and say code words to receive very valuable information as part of our activity. The group themselves had a fantastic time and really got into the event, we had one team even paint their fingers gold as part of their GOLD FINGER team name. They really got, like I said into this activity and had a fantastic time utilizing all members of their team to put together and pool their resources and skills.
