Our team building programs are designed to increase communication, collaboration and most importantly trust. We want to help your team realize that their attitudes and actions have a lasting impact on the future of your organization, the team you are a part of, and ultimately each individual’s success.
Communication, leadership, and Innovation…these are just a few words which can be used to describe the Amazing Race. While our event is like the Amazing Race on TV, we are just using the idea of a race to create a compelling and fun reason to work together. We will be running this race as a team and if you have more than one team we can have your teams compete. Your team or team’s will face challenges that are visual, hands-on, and will involve trust building and problem solving. Some of these challenges are rescuing an eagle egg, whale watching, taking a blind fold hike and solving a group puzzle. We will ensure that your entire team will have the opportunity to play a significate role. Your team will collaborate to overcome a series of fun and challenging team building activities.
Group Sizes: 20-150 people
Time: 2 hours

It won’t take long to recognize members of your team stepping up into leadership positions as the team works together in order to complete activities. The Amazing Race is a series of short team building activities which are designed to engage the whole group toward collective success. This event will be catered towards your group’s needs and size, giving you the opportunity to set out your goals with one of our team building facilitators to ensure a memorable and successful experience.
NorthBay has four exciting 500 foot long zip-lines, which are a highlight for all NorthBay guests.

Our water zip-lines only run during our summer season and are dependent on tide conditions while our dry zip-lines operate year round.
