Our teambuilding scavenger hunt was a rip-roaring success! Bridget Leenstra, Novazyme Pharmaceuticals, Oklahoma City, OK

I want to share with you that the hunt was a huge success! An idea to consider >> Everyone dressed the part (including Senior Leadership.) Our "Dynamic Detectives" arrived with trench coats, hats, and magnifying glasses. The "Does and Bucks Hunting Partying" arrived in full hunting gear (we live in Maine ~ so use your imagination!) Our team albums are a testament to the great day of teamwork, fun and learning ~ and may come back to haunt a few people (HaHaHa.) Thank you for sharing your creativity. You truly have a gift! Sincerely, Monica Russo, MHA, Director of Operations, Practice Partners, Portland, ME

My teambuilding murder mystery Friday afternoon was a huge success!  My employees had a great time!  The actors did a great job and everyone participated in gathering the clues and trying to solve the mystery. Two pegged the killer and we stumped the rest! It was a great teambuilding exercise. Thank you! I think I will do the same thing next year...and I will definitely recommend you to the other managers in my company. Thanks! Kathleen Dufraine, Capmark Services, Atlanta, GA

I just wanted to let you know that Our Town Teambuilding Scavenger Hunt was a complete success. While we were met with a little hesitation and feelings of "this couldn't be accomplished" it was soon realized that you can accomplish anything when a team works together (and have a lot of fun doing it, I might add). We had comments like "I don't know when I have had so much fun". To see how creative some of these teams could be was beyond anything we ever imagined. We took Office Managers, the Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operating Officer and all were willing to do whatever it took to get the job done (we have pictures to prove it). I can't compliment you enough on your product and the ease of customizing it to our needs. I will certainly keep some of your other products in mind for our next meeting. Again, my thanks in making the employees that were in charge of this part of our seminar look REAL GOOD! - Kathy Anderson, Allergy Partners, Asheville, NC

Hi Susan, thanks for the follow up message, how surprising :) Just got back from our Board of Directors retreat where we did the hunt and it was GREAT! It was my first time facilitating a teambuilding event and I was a little nervous, but it went really well. I got a little hesitation from the group at first, but once they got into it, they were hilarious. It was fun to see the different characteristics of each individual surface. They added their own spin to things and impressed me beyond words. Great product!!! Thanks again, Kim O'Shea, Executive Director, Affordable Housing Management Association, Denver, CO

Operation City Slickers was a great success. Thank you for the tools and the great ideas. My team had a great time doing it and I think the exercise to a lot to bring my team together even more. Thanks again, Jodi Blomquist, Brentwood, CA

The "Operation Our Town Team Hunt" was a great success!!! Our group is made up of mostly men and I was very surprised to see how serious they took this event. They had lots of fun, met new people and best of all I looked like a hero for coming up with the idea! The event has been talked about all the way up to our corporate office in Philadelphia. Thanks so much for all of your hard work and follow up. I don't know how I will top this but if you have any ideas please let me know. Thanks, Tricia Bourgeois, ARAMARK Healthcare Management Services, Atlanta, GA

The When Nature Calls teambuilding activity was a great buy for us and has saved us hours of valuable time! Not to mention the cost was very reasonable for the contents and good use of our limited budget! Tina Houston, Denver, CO

Thank you sooo much for "What Happened to Sam Disney?". We were having a leadership conference with the theme of seeking out the people in our organization who have slipped between the cracks, those who are "missing". It was a smashing success everyone loved the kidnapping and the tie in to the theme of the conference. You really saved us as I bought the kit two days before the conference as last minute our original plan fell through! Thank you sooo much for you help. Jeff Van Hulten, West Bountiful UT

The Operation Our Town teambuilding scavenger hunt was great! The management team loved it. The pictures, collection, items, and the commercial were a lot of fun and an excellent way to incorporate team skills and values. I have let the word out to our corporate affiliates of the success and fun we had. The set-up time was not too bad with the thorough details and outline within the instructions for the hunt. Thanks again, Lael Hepworth, Administrator, South Salem Rehab & Specialty Care

Susan, we had our team hunt yesterday and it went very well. Each person felt that they had some significant take away. Many of our participants said they learned something new about one of their team members and the "bed time stories" were so funny that we all laughed until we cried. Thanks for the great hunt! Todd Gabel, Sunrise Senior Living, Dayton, OH

I am doing a team building seminar with my office team of about 16. Your Operation City Slickers teambuilding hunt is great. I was able to take what you had and make it work for me on a local version. Thanks again for you website and getting me started. Faye Kauffman, Apache Junction, AZ

The teambuilding program was great and much more comprehensive than I had thought it would be. We had a wonderful event that was made much easier by having this very detailed "handbook". I was very impressed with the amount of information and the creativity that went into package. Thanks! Rebecca Rhoads, The Guaranty Group, Oceanside, CA

We did the "Our Town Scavenger Hunt" this past Wednesday afternoon and it was a GREAT success. The teams were very enthusiastic throughout the hunt, and the results were both efficient and hilarious. It was a wonderful experience for them and I can see it created plenty of lasting memories for the company, as well as new acquaintances within the group. The albums will be great souvenirs, some extra pictures are being made into an office collage, and it was a really good way to start off this intensive planning session. So thank you very much! It was a very worthwhile teambuilding activity and helped to model the type of teamwork we are looking for in the company. Best wishes, Kensey Davis, Trilegiant, Norwalk, CT

We recently purchased Operation City Slickers. Great job! The instructions were easy to follow and everything was so easy to edit! I will certainly consider your company again for any team building activities. Thank you, Rachel L. Hayden, Navis Logistics Network, Greenwood Village, CO

I used your hunt last week for a teambuilding activity for my sales and marketing team. I can't tell you how much easier it was to put together once I downloaded your hunt. The format was great and so easy to use. I had already put together some clues of my own but it was nice to have extras. It would not have been the same had I not used your hunt clues and format. The event was a smash hit. Everyone had a great time and the pictures will be a great memento. The people who attended the event said that it will be hard to top this one for next years event. Thanks for the help! Melissa Kerr, Sales Manager, CareCredit, Anaheim, CA

I was looking for a teambuilding hunt for an extended period of time. I found many facilitators that operated out of large cities. These planned hunt quotes ranged from $2,500 up to $5,600. This was entirely out of my price range. I was planning to come up with my own hunt for our city. Operation City Slickers has saved me tons of time. I have really customized the hunt to meet the needs of my group; but your guide was the best $59.00 I have spent this year. Thank you for making my life easier. I just wish that there was a way that your guide would have showed up earlier in the process of searching. One of the things that I added to the hunt was that during the hunt the group is required to brainstorm 5 of our school's barriers to success. They also are responsible for proposing a solution to the barrier. Thanks, Edward J. Emmett Jr., Director, Positive Outcomes Charter School, Camden, DE

I received so many compliments on the organization & creativity of the project & I have you to thank!! Everyone had so much fun and there were many laughs! I'm very glad that I purchased your product! Thank you! Best Regards, Julie T. Morristown, NJ

We had our Administrative Scavenger Hunt yesterday and everyone had a blast!!! We had a lot of laughs and everybody enjoyed themselves immensely. As they say "a picture is worth 1,000 words" . . . And that was evident in the outcome of the scavenger hunt yesterday. Some of our management members participated as Captains, etc. and it was hysterical to see them dress appropriately doing a hula dances, wearing the glasses with the nose, eyebrows and mustache and really letting loose. We also have a couple ladies who work in our office who are 65+ and they enjoyed doing "something they unanimously considered fun" like sliding down a slide and swinging on a swing. The people in downtown Walpole, Massachusetts will never be the same; fire department, the local post office, the travel agency, the construction workers, the MBTA employees and the restaurant where we had lunch! We even brought the construction workers Coffee Coolata's from Dunkin Donuts to thank them for their willingness to have fun! Thank you, thank you, thank you for providing a kit that allowed us to not only have our employees work together as teams but also the fun we had on a beautiful sunny day! Sincerely, Wendy J. Silvia, Vice President, Woodland Partners, LLC, Walpole, MA

Thank you for your follow-up. We are very happy with our order, the directions are clear and helpful and then Murder On Maui story is well written. We will be using this murder mystery game at our company Luau in a couple weeks. We are very excited, as we have never done something like this before and feel it will be something different for the staff to enjoy, especially seeing fellow employees acting it out! Should be funny. I am glad I found your site and I am sure I will be a returning customer. Thank you, Kristi Hazzard, National Alliance For Youth Sports, West Palm Beach, Fl

We had our Our Town teambuilding scavenger hunt this past Friday, and it was a GREAT BIG success! I've been planning staff retreat type days for 7-8 years, and this easily had the most positive feedback. As many have clients have indicated on your website, it was easy to tweak your documents to add our own challenges or remove bits that didn't quite work for us. Nice idea > One example I'll pass along is how we replaced the bribing portion of the hunt with mini-challenges. If teams wanted to get assistance of any kind from the facilitator, they had 5 opportunities to complete a mini-challenge. If successful, they got the assistance. If they "chickened-out" or unsuccessful, they could use another of their 5 opportunities, but no team member could attempt more than one of these challenges. In summary, it took a lot of time to plan....but well worth our planning committee's time! Stéphane Daniel, HR Manager, Triangle United Way, Morrisville, NC
