Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. - Henry Ford.

We have many team building challenges to suit all companies, departments, groups, teams etc. or we can tailor make a package to suit your groups needs. Choose between a fun day of water and land activities or one of our team building wicklow packages as listed below.

• Activities
  We can include any of our activities in a program that suits your groups needs. List of activities: sailing, kayaking, canoeing, clay pigeon shooting, air rifles, archery, climbing Wall, orienteering, team tasks.These activities can be combined into a half day, full day or multi day program and can be designed for small of large groups
• Team Building Programs
  We aim to help your group work towards the same goal. Using skills they may not have used for a while - bring you back to your childhood perhaps. We hope by the end of their experience with us that communication between the groups has improved and that teammates have a better understanding of each other's needs and views. We have found that after a day with us the group have a better working environment and a refreshed drive towards their job and most of all a much happier, refreshed staff !
• The Traditional Challenge
  Designed using some of the older Irish games, each team will have to complete a number set games including hurling, Hay day, Turf toss, Gaelic football and more. This challenge will test people at their abilities to play the well known native sports as well introducing them to the lesser known traditional sports.
• The Da Vinci Code
  Just like Robert Langdon in the famous book, teams will work their way through a series of puzzles and codes to reach the prize. From fun and easy brainteasers to more challenging mental tasks, people of all abilities will want to get involved to help their team crack the code. First team to successfully crack the code will be the winners.
• The Cherokee Challenge
  This challenge will give you a taste of what it was like to be a native Indian. Each team of 6 will take part in a task; each task will allow them to gain some vital equipment. Such tasks as Canadian canoeing, Shotgun and Archery will test teams at some of the more subtle skills of Native American Indians
• In Door Team Building
  The Irish weather is not always as reliable as we would like and therefore we can offer groups the option of running their team building event indoors. We can tailor make a program to be run in one of our function or meeting rooms. This can be discussed with the group and the program designed to suit their needs. As with all our programs we would need to know numbers and needs in advance.

Testimonials from Parties in Avon Ri

Hi Conal,
I just wanted to thank you & all the staff for the great time we all had last weekend.
Truly we all really enjoyed our stay, the adventures were great fun, Kerry was lovely, accommodation in the houses is just amazing, so roomy and comfortable, for such a busy spot all the staff we met were very lovely and very helpful, and believe me this is usually not the case in the majority of places I stay in - so I really felt the need to say how refreshing it was to have such a great experience.
Also the food was extremely good, really good quality and prepared by people who care! Lovely!
Your location and facilities are truly unique, So thanks again, it was a great little holiday.
Best regards, Denise Moran.
