Team Pursuit Scavenger Hunt

Pursuit is defined as “to seek to achieve,” and that is exactly what your group will be doing while enjoying a fast-paced, fun-filled afternoon! They will be challenged mentally and physically with activities that will naturally enhance the team spirit and camaraderie of the group and each individual team. This is a good choice to hold at a hotel property or other fun locations.

The activity will begin with reviewing the characteristics of a successful team – and also unsuccessful teams. The group will then be divided into teams of up to 10 for a brief description of the afternoon’s fun. Each team will be given a pack of materials which will contain detailed instructions, maps and other materials that they will need on their “pursuit” of the team award. Directions and a description of the challenges will be given and a short time will be given for the teams to come up with a team name and a strategy for completing the challenges within the time limitations. The entire activity is based on decision-making, strategy, communication and team spirit. After the names are entered on the scoreboard – its off and running!

Challenge activities are varied and utilize different skills. Some are physical, while others will challenge the mind or the group’s strategy skills. Many of the activities require the participation of the entire team, but several may require the participation of only a few members. It is up to each team to effectively utilize their limited resources to accomplish as much as possible – and, of course, accumulate the highest score. All challenge activities are fun-based and require the use of at least one of the basic skills necessary for a highly functional team. The winning team will be the one who has most effectively communicated, planned, and coordinated their efforts.

After a rousing awards ceremony, connections to the actual work environment will be made, and each team will be asked what contributed to their success. Everyone is a winner, leaving with enhanced team spirit and a better knowledge of how to be a better team member.

Team Pursuit will be customized to the specific needs and interests of each group.
