Scavenger Hunts
You can't go wrong with adding a scavenger hunt to your group's activity itinerary. From the classic clue and collect option to the digital photo scavenger to the newest GPS scavenger hunts. All options can be customized to include featured products or concepts from your group's conference agenda. Groups will be broken into small teams; groups will go to the same clue locations however each team's first location will different.
Note: Bike rentals may be limited during peak summer season. Per person pricing assumes that teams will consist of 5 people per team.
Classic Scavenger Hunt- This can be as simple as a list of items to find and collect or we can include clues that must be deciphered that lead the participant to destinations and they must then go to those locations to collect information or collect an item.
Photo Scavenger Hunt-Each team will be issued a digital camera and a limit on the number of photos they can take during the scavenger hunt. Each team will have clues that lead to destinations in Suncadia and must take a photo of their team at that location. Creativity and team spirit are taken into consideration!
GPS Scavenger Hunt- Each team will be given instructions on how to use the GPS unit and then each team will be given sets of coordinates to different locations. The teams will compete to get back to the start after collecting all their teams' prize items from each destination.
Amazing Race Team Challenge
We know that all groups' participants have diverse interests and abilities and finding the right teambuilding event can be its own challenge. This event takes into consideration all these diversities and we guarantee your group will be talking about it long after the event ends. Each team of 12-20 people will receive a bin that contains a binder that consists of clues to various locations, 2-4 mental puzzles and a scavenger hunt list. Each clue leads to a location on property (walking, biking, or driving distance) and will list a specific number of participants that must go to that location to participate in an activity. The activity will not be divulged but the clue will indicate whether it is a physical or mental challenge. Each team must strategize how to get to each location, how to deploy their team to accomplish all the activity stations, find all the scavenger hunt items and complete their mental challenge sheets. Did we mention there is time limit? All aspects of this event are scored to ultimately lead to a final score for each team.
Wacky Olympics
Involve your group in a series of team challenges of a not so serious nature. Guaranteed to have everyone laughing and interacting but don't be surprised if this just for fun activity becomes just a little bit competitive!
Pool Olympics- a water-based version of our popular Wacky Olympics. This option is based on pool availability and some seasonal and time of day restrictions may apply.
Note: Director of Recreation or Swim & Fitness Manager must approve prior to booking this event.
Suncadia's "Sweet Spot" Challenge
Hitting the Sweet Spot is more than just a reference to a sport player's success! In today's business climate finding personal as well as collective success consistently within your organization is no small feat but when you do, that sense of accomplishment is no less rewarding than a major league player's home run record! We realize not everyone is a sports fan but everyone loves the feeling of accomplishment and success. We are going to take the traditional sense of hitting the sweet spot to a round robin style event that encourages individual and team success through a series of fast paced sports activities. We will stage a variety of sport and field activities and each team will participate in each activity throughout the course of the event.
Survivor Challenge
Does your group have what it takes to be the ultimate survivor? This competition will test your teams' ability to act quickly, chose team members based on their potential strengths to the team and work together for success in the various events. All players must be utilized in team exercises and the players may not be used more than once for an activity that requires only a few players.
Build a Boat Regatta
Need a team activity that requires your group to process a problem, strategize the solution or outcome, communicate using all the team members' input and work together to complete the project? The problem: must build a boat that will support one member from their team paddling the length of the pool and back. Strategize: create a plan to construct the boat using only the materials provided (cardboard, duct tape and a few other miscellaneous supplies). Communication: the entire team is involved in the process and must use at least one idea or suggestion from each person in the construction of the boat. Teamwork: everyone contributes to the construction of the boat, works on the teams' marketing plan or slogan and is a part of decorating the boat.
Note: Program is based on pool availability and some seasonal and time of day restrictions may apply.
Canoe or Kayak Obstacle Course
Your group will not stop talking about their experience after this event that is as entertaining for the spectators as it for the participants. Individual or team competitions take place on our lake near the Amphitheater. Our staff will set up a tournament style event or we can offer a variety of challenges.
