March 26, 2014 : General Team Building
Maximillion, along with our other event brands Wildgoose Scotlandand MadMax Adventures and Turnberry Adventures, offer a wide range of outdoor team building events and activities to suit different group sizes, objectives and budgets. To help you choose the right one for your team, here are our top five for Summer 2014:
It’s A Knockout
Now a team building classic, this inflatable fun event is as popular as ever. Nothing breaks down barriers more than seeing your colleagues dive through soapy tunnels and slide down slippery slopes. Our professional Compere provides hilarious commentary and, with the DJ and sound system playing the tunes of the summer, a high level of energy and light-hearted cross-team competition and bragging rights are guaranteed. Add some Whacky Races or a BBQ to create the perfect summer team away day.
Huntathlon
With the Glasgow Games now looming as the major UK sporting event of 2014, our Wildgoose Scotland Huntathlon challenge is designed to celebrate success and provides teams with a unique treasure hunt with a fun sporting twist. Armed with the latest Galaxy 3 Tablets, and utilising the latest GPS technology and a specially-designed app, teams will go head to head to battle it out and go for gold. This unique event includes a complete range of fun, sporting and Games-themed questions, challenges and tasks, triggered by GPS hotspots and designed to appeal to all teams and provide you with a great event.
Boot Camp
Our Boot Camp has had a makeover and now includes some fantastic activities for you to choose from to ensure your troops get put through their paces. Our very own Drill Sergeant welcomes the group and takes them through the first challenge of the day before the troops split and rotate around a number of different activities. Choose from: Camouflage & Concealment, Fire & Manoeuvre, British Military Fitness, Command Tasks, Air Rifle shooting, Army Song… to name but a few. And if the rotational activities aren’t enough you have the option of finishing your event off with a log race finale!
Country Pursuits
Always a favourite with corporate groups and leisure groups alike. From basicCountry Pursuits packages including activities such as 4×4 offroading in Land Rover Defenders, Quad Bike Safari and Traditional Clays, to bespoke packages including unusual activities such as Segways, Black Powder Shooting and Duck Herding, there’s something to appeal to everyone’s taste. Maximillion provides country pursuits activities from our Kirknewton Stables venue and our MadMax Adventures and Turnberry Adventures activity centres
