Few groundbreaking ideas are realized from the boardroom.

But what if team building didn't have to be that way?

Leave work at work, and immerse yourselves in a team building adventure with a purpose.

Groups will draw on creative problem-solving skills, clear communication, and fluid collaboration to conquer this quest. While exploring the city, they will choose point-earning tasks such as brainteasers, riddles, photos, videos, and other activities to complete. These opportunities nudge team members out of their comfort zones and allow players of all capabilities and mobilities to contribute to the team’s success. Other actionable takeaways include time and resource management, decision-making leadership and seamless teamwork. These skills are easily transferred into action at the workplace.

  • On Purpose is a well run operation that allowed our group to gain insights into Charlestons storied history while exploring the city on foot in an effort to complete the Holy City Wanderer scavenger hunt and win our Company Challenge. The technology was very user friendly and helped to improve the overall experience with fun challenges, some involving taking pictures and videos with our team. Definitely a memorable experience and one that I would recommend!

  • The scavenger hunt around Charleston was a great experience. My competitive side kicked in when we were divided into groups and had to race around downtown Charleston to solve clues. It was not like any other scavenger hunt I had ever done before. I had to rely on my teammates with their knowledge and skills to assist with figuring out the locations of places in Charleston. I learned so much about Charleston that I did not know before after the scavenger hunt was over. My team did not win but I had a tremendous amount of fun. I would participate in this scavenger hunt with On Purpose Adventures again if I had the opportunity.

  • On Purpose truly helped to make our global summit a massive success. I have no hesitation when saying it was the definitive highlight of the week. The impact of what they did has gone so far beyond our summit [...] the lines of communication and sense of camaraderie have vastly improved.
