Super Trikes: Team Building

Dear Party Planner:

I need to come up with a unique team building activity ASAP! We have done bounce houses, scavenger hunts and a casino party-- What else do you have for me? My boss decided last minute that we needed an activity for our 4th of July picnic.

Dear Cindy,

Let me tell you a quick story about my friend (and a Team Events client) Jack.

Jack never had a happier Christmas then the one when he got a shiny red tricycle. While he later graduated up to bigger and bigger bikes, he will always remember fondly the time whipping around his parent's driveway on that tricycle. Now that Jack is older, and a professional (-ahem- stuffy –ahem-) , he rarely got to act like a kid anymore. When did Jack have fun? Never! Work work work work…Jack was certainly becoming a dull dull boy.

A few months ago, Jack's assistant made him the happiest camper in town when he organized a team-building event that brought back Jack's favorite childhood memories: Super Trikes! Imagine a course designed by using cones and banners, where racers jump on their gigantic tricycles and race down the runway. Jack was happy--and your boss will be too!


Super Trikes is hysterical, requires everyone to work together, and really a gift for the spirits.(Safety first – each racer is fully protected, so no chance of any injury.) Watching my own boss beat the snot our of our VP by racing these tricycles in our company parking lot was one of the best days of my life. I’ve never seen the dude so happy! The Marquis DeSaad actually cracked a smile. Ahhhhh childhood dreams intersecting with career ambition…Nothing better!

So-- a unique idea..yes! Super Trikes! Easy to organize, a ton of fun and available on quick notice!

Enjoy
