"During our Corporate Castaways event it was wonderful to have everyone actively involved. There was a mix of strength, logic, trivia, and strategy, which created balance in the teams and in everyone’s participation. Since this event brought associates from 11 Milestones locations together, it was a great opportunity to create a social setting for networking. I had feedback that people were afraid of the term "teambuilding" (eg. do I have to close my eyes and fall backwards?) but throughout the day, everyone agreed that it was a great event, a lot of fun, and they trusted each other without feeling pressure. If I may quote Mastercard, I would say the experience was priceless."

[for Frequently Asked Questions please click the FAQ > button below]

Involve your team in a competitive high-tech, modern-day treasure hunt. Teams are given GPS units that are pre-programmed with navigational information for each location, called Waypoints. Utilizing the GPS units and designated team skills, each team collaborates to find these locations and complete a series of activities at each location.

Each Waypoint location can vary from the simple to the very challenging. To navigate to each Waypoint the team must create a plan, execute it, and reach the final goal utilizing their pre-designated skills. With the aid of the Canadian Outback Adventures & Events Hosts, this becomes an amazing opportunity to observe team behavior and to discover what your team needs most to function at the next level. This experiential learning program will also highlight interesting locations surrounding your event location and is a lot of fun!

The Geocaches in this program can take many forms. For example, teams may be looking for a buried item on a sandy beach or a hidden dry bag hanging from a tree, or can take the form of a lock box containing a challenge the team must complete, or even a staff member with instructions to complete a physical activity. The form of the Cache depends on the environment in which the event is run and is subject to change.

Please contact one of our friendly and knowledgeable representatives to discuss your situation and vision. Need a detailed proposal right away? That's our specialty.
