7 Places in Forth Worth for Corporate Team Building

Team-building events are designed to help motivate people to learn to work more effectively in a team environment. Employees should be able to work on developing their own strengths and identify any weaknesses they may have. The purpose of team building is to collaborate rather than compete as individuals. More and more companies are incorporating team-building exercises into their workplace. Because of that, Fort Worth has new team-building events being added all the time. At Hiley Hyundai of Fort Worth, we know the value of teamwork and how these exercises can benefit companies.

Here’s a look at seven of the best places in Fort Worth for your next corporate team-building event.

Scavenger Hunts at Stray Boots

Scavenger hunts are popular team-building activities as workers need to collaborate to solve challenges that will take them all over the neighborhood. Employees get to know each other in a new way and learn the value of working as a team. That can increase morale and productivity.

Stray Boots offers several corporate team-building activities in Fort Worth, including the Downtown Forth Worth Scavenger Hunt. Teams will explore Sundance Square, the 35-block entertaining and shopping district. Highlights of the event include the Flatiron Building, Madison Square Park, Eataly, Irving Place, Met Life Tower, and the Supreme Court Appellate Division.

Mighty Mini Racers at PossibiliTEAMS

PossibiliTEAMS has numerous team-building options, including Mighty Mini Racers. Here, teams are required to turn regular wood blocks into miniature race cars. This is perfect for groups anywhere between 15 and 300 or more.

Groups are divided into “Pit Crew” teams where they need to work together to create a team name and their identity. They all participate in a set of energizing team games to earn the equipment and parts required to build their winning race cars. Once they collect all the parts and equipment, the teams will build their cars and enter the Big Race.

There are numerous other options for team-building activities as well, and events can be held indoors, outdoors, on-site, or at meeting facilities and resorts.

Pit Crew for a Real Race Car at Mario Andretti Racing School

If the idea of driving a real race car sounds exciting, consider a team-building event organized by the Mario Andretti Racing School. These events occur at the Texas Motor Speedway, home to NASCAR, IndyCar, Xfinity, and more.

Race car drivers rely heavily on their pit crew to make a win possible. Team building here can include pit stop challenges and custom competitions. Events are designed to build up team spirit while focusing on team bonding and leadership.

The Forth Worth Zoo is also an option for team-building events and activities. Participants get to have once-in-a-lifetime, up-close animal encounters while learning how to bond through a series of targeted team-building exercises. For example, your teams must answer trivia questions about your business to earn supplies. These supplies will be used to build an enrichment item that can be used by the zoo’s animals.

Teams will have the day at the zoo, spend time with the trained zoo staff, and then come together for a picnic lunch.

Chili Cook-Off at The Ranch of Lonesome Dove

If you have 20 or more people, consider a chili cook-off team-building event at The Ranch of Lonesome Dove. The ranch is located about 30 minutes away from Fort Worth by car. Each team will need to choose a mascot and chant. They will need to perform their chant in the competition.

Using bare ingredients, teams can earn additional ingredients by answering trivia questions, being the first to create their mascot and chant, showing well-defined teamwork, and more. Teams also have to develop a marketing plan and presentation for their chili. Judges will name a champion based on the taste, marketing plan, and presentation of the chili.
