MVP: Most Valuable Planner of Your Colorado Team Challenge

Planning an effective and inspiring Colorado team building event isn’t as easy as waving pompoms at a high school football game. As the planner, you are tasked with the challenge of not only figuring out what will inspire, build trust, and encourage your group to work together, but also choosing the perfect place that reflects your corporate culture … and meets your budget. Let meetingpages help with these 5 ideas that can effectively fire up the troops and ignite just this.

A Rising Tide Lifts All Boats

From boating tours to white water rafting, sailing away on an exciting adventure can do wonders for building comradery and boosting morale amongst your team.
Pueblo Riverwalk offers a one-of-a-kind experience with narrated historical tours on the Pueblo River excursion boats, serene Gondola rides, or exciting pedal boats on Lake Elizabeth. Plan a gathering to follow at the Boettcher (Natural Area), Lake Elizabeth Pavilion, Gateway Park and more. With many venues located along the lovely Riverwalk offering private boat rental and pedal boats, and the variety of tempting local eateries along the way, you are sure to find the perfect one for your group.

Colorado Adventure Center provides an unforgettable experience with guided white-water rafting adventures, zip lining and canopy tours, biking alongside the Colorado River, and more.  With convenient river locations near Denver, Vail, Winter Park, Summit Country and Vail, the possibility for excitement and a team bonding experience are endless.

Increase Your Teams Drive

Get the team in gear at Podium Karting centrally located in Denver, Colorado. This adrenaline pumping world class go karting and racing experience offers your team a professionally designed course, accurate lap timing, and well-maintained safety gear and equipment. Wind down afterwards in private event space that offers catering options and many amenities. This isn’t an arcade game and it’s certainly not the highway at rush hour either, but the real thing, revved up to meet your goals. After channel your inner lumberjack during a 60-, 90- or 120-minute axe-throwing session at the onsite premier axe throwing bar, Axelrod’s, where instructors will show your group how to use standard aces to hit the target as well as play different games. Then relax, in one of the venues private event spaces.

Prefer to boost morale on the “greens”? Then let the games begin — tee up a best ball scramble golf tournament at Colorado’s premiere golf club Fossil Trace Golf Club, located in Golden, Colorado. Or ace the course in mini golf at Colorado Journey Miniature Golf centrally located in Littleton, Colorado. All skill levels are welcome in these fun adventures outside the office.

Horsing Around

There’s nothing quite like a ranch to inspire teamwork. Combined with great food, comfortable accommodations, and a rustic atmosphere, your team will long remember this type of outing.

C Lazy U Ranch presents your group with the opportunity to experience a real ranch, learning skills that only cowboys know, such as how to throw a lariat and herd and move cattle. Other team-building activities include horsemanship classes, ropes course, zip line, amazing races, and roping. Spacious comfortable rooms, gourmet dining, and on-site spa for sore muscles completes the package.

Built in 1938, Devil’s Thumb Ranch Resort & Spa is located at the foot of the Continental Divide. There’s no end to the opportunities for your team to get out and play, with horseback riding, zip line tours, hiking, mountain biking, fly fishing, and more. A vast menu of dining options is perfect for hearty appetites, while accommodations range from lodges to cabins, a bunkhouse to an inn. The relaxing spa is the perfect way to end the day, rest and rejuvenate.

Nothing Builds Trust Like a Challenge

Epic adventures await your crew at The Edge, Denver’s top-rated Zipline Tour. Featuring ten thrilling and exciting zip lines that fly over one and a half miles, your team will speed along at 50 mph on some of the state’s longest and fastest cables. Choose from the Sky Trek, a 4-story, 110-element aerial trekking course, the Adventure Tower with 13-elements of climbing, free-falling, and rappelling or choose to unleash the warrior inside with the Ninja Course as seen on TV. And decide, who’s the fastest on your team?

Or venture over to Canon City, Colorado to Royal Gorge Zip Line Tours where your team will traverse over a mile of cable on 9-11 lines, with the last line offering you the chance for dual racing.

A Homerun Hit Every Time

Nothing says, “we appreciate you” like a day spent at the ball game. Hot dogs, peanuts, and ice-cold drinks just naturally go great with the boys of summer hitting one out of the park at UCHealth Park. Take your team to the ballgame at Rocky Mountain Vibes, an independent baseball team of the Pioneer League, a Major League Baseball Partner League. Get a great group rate and watch the Iowa Cubs in their 20th season. Book a group outing and receive discounted tickets, video board & PA recognition, group seating, discounted food and more. Be sure to take plenty of photos at the field with your group as a special way to remember your day.
