Greenville Scavenger Hunt Team Building

Few groundbreaking ideas are realized from a boardroom, cubicle or behind a desk. And while the office water cooler may be a central hub for uninspiring gossip, it rarely influences true team cohesion or productivity.

The Upstate Wanderer (USW) Scavenger Hunt with On Purpose Adventures transports employees out of the office and into a team building adventure with a purpose. USW is a GPS-based scavenger hunt that combines the power of play with strategy, communication, and personal ahas. High-tech, yet easy-to-use, the USW removes the pressure of awkward relationship building by fostering connections through real-life challenges and shared experience. 

Swap tapping computer keys for traversing upstate areas such as downtown Greenville, and growing suburbs like Greer, Travelers Rest, Easley or Fountain Inn as USW takes you through downtown streets and picturesque parks in search of clues. Hitting many of the upstate's unique hotspots, as well as the hidden gems known to locals, this adventure is full of local folklore, historical facts, and beautiful sights. You will experience what makes upstate South Carolina unique, while offering up fun with photos, videos, brainteasers, riddles, and comfort zone stretchers. 

Groups will draw on creative problem solving, clear communication, and fluid collaboration to conquer this quest.  Brainteasers, riddles, photos, videos, and activities will nudge them out of their comfort zones. Other actionable takeaways include resource management, decision making, leadership and seamless teamwork. These skills are easily translated back into the workspace and put into action.

Leave work at work, and immerse yourselves in a team building adventure with a purpose. The Upstate Wanderer Scavenger Hunt can help your team build and maintain a cohesive culture that lasts long after the adventure ends.

And, don’t worry, if it rains, we've got you covered.
