Team Building Activities in Simcoe County
We are very fortunate to live in a four-seasons county with an abundance of recreational activities, both indoor and out, offering team building activities that are sure to build effective working relationships, strengthen teamwork, and boost morale. Here are some of our favourites.
Axe Throwing
Take part in an one of the fastest growing and exhilarating experiences around. Iron Nation Axe Throwing provides a safe, warm and exciting environment where people can experience the sport of axe throwing. If you’re looking for a unique, memorable way to have fun and build camaraderie, Iron Nation is a great place to do a team building event. Even the faint of heart who may start off feeling intimidated by the idea quickly learn that it is safe, fun and empowering. You don’t have to be a Viking to get in on the fun and excitement. Explore your competitive side, cheer on the rest of Iron Nation, and bring in food to complete the experience. Participants are given thorough instructions and coaching on how to safely and accurately throw an axe. Groups will be taught games and guided through a round robin tournament.
Rounds Ranch Farm Adventures
Incorporate some western-style adventure into your team building. Navigate maze adventures, enjoy horse-drawn sleigh or wagon rides, or build teamwork skills with contests and competitions. The Rounds Ranch’s Event Coordinator will customize your event and do all the planning, so you can sit back and enjoy! Team building events at the Ranch consist of an “A-MAZE-ing Race,” taking teams through a number of challenges to test their skills. Include the entire line-up for the ultimate western experience, or custom-selected activities to suit your group’s preferences…they cater to please.
Treetop Trekking
Participate in a variety of challenges and activities designed to build team spirit, and improve problem-solving and communication skills. Choose between the Survival Challenge program designed to build leadership skills and team spirit or Low Ropes to help unite teams and bring out hidden strengths. Group Dynamics may be used as a pre-cursor to more involved team building activities or to help newly-formed groups with icebreakers chosen by professional team building facilitators who will select activities based on your group’s goals. All of their team building programs include a group discussion to help teams identify which new skills have been developed and how these can be applied in the workplace.

A little wine, a little paint, and a whole lot of fun awaits you at Canvas and Cabernet.

Whether you’re trying to lift the curse of the evil genie in order to attain freedom, are being held captive in the bow of Blackbeard’s ship, are attempting to retrieve the lost jewel of Zanzibar before the warlord gets to it, or are trying avoid being lost forever in Cyberspace, your group is destined for fun. Following your escape, enjoy a full menu and café.
Culinary Workshops
Challenge your team’s culinary skills in the state-of-the-art kitchen facilities at Georgian College, where culinary team building and cooking events aim to turn the heat up under your team’s success. Events range from two to eight hours in length, and can accommodate groups with as few as 10 and as many as 70 participants. Choose from a variety of cooking themes that can be customized to meet your team’s needs. It’s delicious fun done under the guidance of professionals to help enhance communication, increase creative thinking, build trust, and promote teamwork.
When you take some time to get out and play, chances are the result will lead to increased productivity, a boost in team morale, and all around better working relations.
