Experience Perth whilst Team Building
This amazing team adventure is a fusion of group think, interactive challenges and a race against time across, through and over the streets, river and bustling CBD of Perth. The adventure includes multi sensory puzzlers, physical challenges, problem solving tasks, building challenges and interactive game playing. By using the template of The Amazing Race in conjunction with team dynamic training, the adventure has all the excitement of the TV show along with strong team growth components.
Building stronger teams
In a pre race facilitated session, each person identifies his or her personal ‘speed bumps’ that often hinder effective communication. Most are forced to make a commitment to change as more often than not it will have a positive effect on the rest of the team’s performance (immediately and in the future) thus creating stronger team unity and win/win scenarios.
Start (location tbc)
The experience begins with a fun brainteaser that helps spread the teams’ departure times by a few minutes. Teams are allocated a resource kit with travel vouchers, cash budget, maps and directions, as well as the rules for the day.
Once the race starts, each team makes their way by foot to the bus stop. Catching the first bus to Barrack St, team rivalry ensures the teams are all bustling to be first to arrive at the ferry dock, where they must locate a race facilitator to receive their first clue. Within the race clue envelope, teams will find instructions, directions, and a team challenge. The teams must successfully complete the challenge in order to receive a cash bonus that will enable them to use faster modes of transport throughout the race.
Leaving the cash bonus checkpoint, richer or poorer, the teams then follow the clue to their next destination, somewhere in South Perth, where they must locate an ‘American tourist’ and have their photo taken (as a group) completing a group challenge. They will then be given another clue envelope.
Following the directions in the clue envelope, they must navigate their way to check points on their way to Kings Park via the Narrows Interchange parkland by climbing up Jacob's Ladder (At each checkpoint the teams must collect proof of their arrival).
Checkpoint 1: They must collect all the famous names on plaques in the park.
Checkpoint 2: Record the number of steps on Jacobs ladder
Teams must then solve a brainteaser in a predetermined location on the foreshore between the Kings Park and the City. Teams must then SMS their location (using a number retrieved from the brainteaser) to the race coordinator to receive further instructions.
Teams will then be required to follow directions to the Ore Obelisk, where they must locate an event facilitator in the area, and as a team, construct and object that they will carry with them throughout the remainder of the race.
Following instructions from the facilitator will require the whole teams collective knowledge, and will give them the clue of how to best make their way to a well known hotel. The mad dash is then on, as the leading teams race towards their chosen transport option, and make their way to the finish line.
At any time during the race, teams may call an ‘emergency’ mobile number should they get lost, have difficulty locating clues, or have trouble finding transport. The teams that call the ‘emergency’ number will receive a time penalty once they reach the finish line.
Teams may choose to travel by foot, bus, trains, ferry or any other mode of transport, depending on time restraints, budgets, vouchers, and location and team decisions.
One Rule: they must always stay together as a team
This high-energy activity will ensure your team has a fun, thought provoking and team-bonding afternoon. The Amazing Race provides a sense of unity and a shared achievement that participants will be talking about for years to come.
