SUMMER PROGRAMS

Unique, original, fun Summer events you won't find anywhere else. If you don't see anything that strikes your fancy please go to our Team Building page for a complete list of team building programs, or our Entertainment page for a list of our corporate shows, or our Hunts page for a listing of all our exciting scavenger and treasure hunts. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us, and have a safe and enjoyable Summer.

 


SUMMER PROGRAMS


Wacky Outdoor Games:
We have been running this competitive event for several years now with much success. Our Wacky Outdoor Games is specifically designed so that everyone in your group gets to participate, regardless of their level of athleticism. Some of the games require physical skills while others require mental acuity or creativity. All of them require a desire to have fun! The motto of OUR games is... "Try for the Taupe!" Disclaimer: We are in no way to be confused with, or associated with any other organized sporting associations or institutions. Our games are a complete separate entity from ALL those other games ESPECIALLY (but not exclusive to) the one with the rings and the torch and the flame and stuff. Hell, we couldn't even have a torch if we wanted to. Not until the court order has been lifted allowing us to use flame again. We have no connection whatsoever with those other games and shouldn't be confused for them. For example... we don't even give out medals! We issue ribbons in Gamboge, Slate and Beige. If you are wondering what "gamboge" is, it's kind of a shade of mustard. But "Grasp for the Gaboge" doesn't really inspire the competitive spirit, so we will go with our new motto, "Try for the Taupe", even though none of our ribbons are taupe. So remember, no matter what anyone tells you, we are not affiliated in any way with any other games nor are we even similar in any way. Is that clear enough for you? Thank you.

The Great American Bike/Trike Giveaway©:
A philanthropic team building program for outdoors or in. In this feel good program teams compete and build bikes and/or trikes and then give the bikes to children of underpriviledged families.

The Beatings Will Continue Until Morale Improves©:
Aaauurgh! A half or full day of competitive team building pirate style. Games include: Walking the Plank; Sabre Fight; Cannon Loading; and Peg Leg Races. Whether it's a corporate outing or a family picnic this program works well for pirates of ALL ages.

The Incredible Race©:
This hunt has all the excitement of TV’s “Amazing Race” only without the international travel, the variety of cultures, the amazing scenery of distant lands and… Okay, okay. Who are we kidding? Our Incredible Race© isn’t as thrilling as jetting around the planet for a $1 Million prize but it is challenging, exciting and a whole lot of fun.

SurvivorS©:
Loosely based on the reality TV show our game has a number of differences, the main one being our program is inclusive rather than exclusive. Your teammates don't turn on one another and vote each other off. Instead teams work to save their teammates and keep them on the island. This fun, creative team building program asks tribes to Out Wit, Out Play and Out Think Out-of-the-Box!

Escape from Exile Island©:
Your teams have been sent to exile island. The only means of escape is to build a sea-worthy craft using the few materials available on the island, namely... cardboard! This fun, creative team building program can be run anywhere there is a body of water whether it be an ocean, lake, river, pond or pool.

SurvivorS© - Full day program:
Combine the above two programs (SurvivorS© and Escape from Exile Island©) for a full day of team building excitement.

The Tourney©:
Summer games your group will never forget. Participants will have a ball competing in such medieval sports as the death defying Jousting Match, the blood-curdling Dungeons of Rat Trap, and at least one person always loses an eye in the William Tell Crossbow Competition! Who knew the Dark Ages could be so much fun?

Team Carnival©:
This program is less structured than the Wacky Olympics or some of our other competitive team games. There is no schedule. Participants play the carnival games at their leisure and earn points for their team. We tally the points at the end of the day and announce the winning team.

Scalawags & Hooligans©:
Are you looking for scavenger hunt that focuses on trust, ethics and good sportsmanship? Then this is NOT the hunt for you! Scalawags & Hooligans© is a highly competitive hunt in which the winners are the team that cheated the best! Completely devoid of principles but loads of fun!

Spy Hunt©:
This is the original Spy Hunt©. A game within a game within a hunt, this is unlike any hunt you have experienced before. Do you accept this challenging mission? Good luck! This description will self-destruct in 30 seconds.



Corporate America's Got Talent©:
We provide a live band, the sound equipment, an Emcee and a panel of comedians as the judges. You provide the performers. What kinds of acts are we looking for? Anything from the sublime to the ridiculous. Musical acts and comedy skits are always welcome. But we also want those unusual acts like Fred in the mailroom who can accurately throw an envelope into a box from twenty feet or Sally in HR who does bird calls. Maybe you have a choir of people in Sales who can belch Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. Anything goes! And if you want to make this a truely memorable team building event we suggest taking the show to an audience who would really appreciate it... a retirement or seniors care facility. Many of these facilities do not have the budget to bring in entertainment. You get a team building program that helps bond your office and they get an afternoon of laughter, music and joy. It's a win/win!

Spy School©:
This is the original and highly successful Spy School© that has been facilitated in Europe, Australia and throughout North America. It has even been played by several US Intelligence organizations. A team building game of espionage that really gets your group mingling and having a great time.

Wheel or No Wheel©:
Imagine a game show with the intellectual challenges of Jeopardy, the team work of Family Feud, the chance of Wheel of Fortune and the thrill and risk-taking of Deal or No Deal. That's Wheel or No Wheel©.

To Kill a Spy©:
Been to a murder mystery before? Not like this one! We have a "Top Secret" formula for a brand new kind of mystery. It's a murder mystery AND a game of espionage in one. Which team will complete their mission first and win the "Nobody Does It Better" Award? This mystery game is a license to have fun!
