Team Pursuit - Corporate Team Building Activity in Killeen, Texas

Hi, its Tawnya from American Outback Adventures & Events, here with another corporate event update.

Today we had a Team Pursuit for a group of educators in Killeen, Texas. The theme of their meeting was Leadership through Connection, and they were exploring how connecting with, and understanding others, could enhance their leadership abilities and skills. Team Pursuit was the perfect activity for this theme, as it challenges the teams to effectively communicate, strategize, and solve problems. Some of their favourite challenges were “The worst dance off ever”, “Drill sergeant impressions” and “The cha cha slide”. The competition was fun, but fierce, and the scores were close. Overall, a lot of laughter was had, and teams commented they learned a lot, such as identifying team member’s strengths, and completing challenges based on that.

Escape Room: Jewel Heist - Corporate Team Building Activity in Memphis

Hi, This is Emma from American Outback Adventures & Events, here to show off our newest event – The Escape Room: Jewel Heist.

For this challenge, teams are put together in a collaborative way. Instead of being against each other, everyone is going to work together to solve all of the clues and riddles presented to them. We do all these in 90 minutes before the jewel thief returns. Win or lose, participants are going to find out a lot about themselves and each other. Their strong suits will be showcased and they really have to rely on each other to solve the puzzles. No one person can do this event, but together, it is possible to find the jewels before the thief returns. This event is great for any sized group in any location. We bring everything straight to you. Just take a look at all of these photos and all of the hard work the participants were going to put in for the big payoff – finding those jewels.

Art Smart - Corporate Team Building Activity in Simi Valley

Hi everyone, this is Emma from American Outback Adventures & Events, and I wanted to share some photos and stories from one of my new favorite event, it’s called Art Smart.

This event is all about creativity. Teams get together, and with limited starting supplies, plan out what their art work is gonna look like. They then create an art quiz, and to earn additional funds to go to the supply store, where they can purchase all of the necessary tools to create their masterpiece. They get to work, all working, helping together to create the vision. Each of these had a theme. The 2 themes were either “Be Bold” or “Rise to the Challenge” and everyone’s artwork really reflected this. Teams put a lot of effort into their art and at the end, we had a gallery showing, and everyone walked around and voted for their favorite piece. This event is really great if you want a social event where people can mingle and talk. While the art is being created, everyone gets the chance to walk around the room, see what everyone else is doing and have a great time. It also works really well if you’re gonna be serving any food or drinks. This event can be accommodated in any sized room with any size group.

If you think that your team would love a creative event like this at their next event/gathering, please don’t hesitate to give us a call.
