Daylight hours are increasing! Summer will soon be upon\u00a0us!<\/p>\n
Summer is a great time of year to enjoy the outdoors with your work colleagues in a fun team building\u00a0event.<\/p>\n
Here are my top six outdoor team building activities for summer in\u00a02017\/18.<\/p>\n
One of these may just be the perfect solution for your Christmas party, end of year team bonding activity or staff\u00a0retreat.
\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Introduction\/Paragraph 1″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″]<\/p>\n
Based on the popular reality television series,\u00a0Survivor<\/a>\u00a0is an ideal program for the summer\u00a0months.<\/p>\n The beauty of Survivor is its various activities and challenges can be tailored to suit the actual environment being used for the\u00a0day.<\/p>\n It can be adapted for almost any outdoor space whether that\u2019s a beach, park, bushland or sport\u2019s\u00a0reserve.<\/p>\n Everyone can participate regardless of fitness level and, like the\u00a0TV<\/span>\u00a0show, will combine strategy and skill until a sole survivor\u00a0reigns.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Paragraph 2″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left”]<\/p>\n As the name suggests,\u00a0City Scramble<\/a>\u00a0pits teams against each other in a race around a certain location – a\u00a0CBD<\/span>, a small town, a suburb, a precinct or even large\u00a0parkland.<\/p>\n That\u2019s what makes this outdoor team building program so popular. It can be adapted for any group depending on location and\u00a0budget.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a great way to experience a destination and learn about its landmarks, history and features along the\u00a0way.<\/p>\n Teams will have plenty of fun too as they navigate around the course completing challenge after\u00a0challenge.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Paragraph 3″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left”]<\/p>\n With plenty of inflatable activities, bright colours and obstacle courses,\u00a0It\u2019s A Knockout<\/a>\u00a0is a throwback to the popular 80s\u00a0TV<\/span>\u00a0program.<\/p>\n It is perfect for a flat outdoor venue such as a park or oval where numerous inflatable obstacles and novelty challenges can be set\u00a0up.<\/p>\n Maximising the great outdoors, it\u2019s a recreational program that promotes team interaction and plenty of laughter with an 80s\u00a0theme.<\/p>\n With Christmas coming up, it can be a good team event to include as part of end of year work parties that involve both staff and their\u00a0families.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image align=”center” border_radii=”on|11px|11px|11px|11px” _builder_version=”3.22.7″ src=”https:\/\/www.corporatechallenge.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Survivor.jpg” alt=”outdoor team building events ” title_text=”outdoor team building events”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Paragraph 4″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left”]<\/p>\n The summer season and beach go hand in hand especially in Australia. What better way to experience both than together in a fun team\u00a0activity.<\/p>\n Beach Olympics<\/a>\u00a0features a mix of recreational challenges that can cater for all fitness levels on the soft sand of a beach with the glistening ocean as a refreshing\u00a0backdrop.<\/p>\n Teams will battle for it out for gold in this high energy program. There are a host of activities to choose from so the event can be tailored for each organisation that does\u00a0it.<\/p>\n With the next Commonwealth Games coming up very soon in our own backyard in Australia, this might be a good program to theme your own company Games on a beautiful\u00a0beach.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Paragraph 5″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left”]<\/p>\n When there is chance of getting wet, obviously the best time to do this is in the warmer\u00a0months!<\/p>\n Raft Regatta<\/a>\u00a0is a test for teams in resourcefulness and creativity with the possibility of a splash at the\u00a0end.<\/p>\n This program takes teams through a whirlwind of recreational and problem solving activities with the ultimate aim to build a\u00a0raft.<\/p>\n The exciting conclusion is the raft race across a lake, creek or pool. Which raft will win, which will stay afloat and which will\u00a0capsize?<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Paragraph 5″ _builder_version=”3.18.4″ animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left”]<\/p>\n The end of year is a time of giving. The end of year is also a busy time for animal\u00a0shelters.<\/p>\n This presents an opportunity for groups to undertake a team building program for a cause in the great\u00a0outdoors.<\/p>\n2.
