For many businesses the new year is a time to re-group with the management team and set goals for the year. Most people (including some staff here) don’t know that AGENCY 360° keeps a satellite office in Fort Custer State Park, near Kalamazoo (and <ahem> Bells Brewery) in Michigan.
Last week, I dropped in on the team there, including our CFO, Director of Photography and Director of Risk Management. Goal for the meeting:
- conceive of a dynamic and effective team-building activity
- execute and document said activity
- review results and share with extended team members
- propose activity to clients (as appropriate)
So we present: CarSledding.



This sequence shows the “Jump” or “Ramp” portion of the CarSledding activity. (Not recommended. Subsequent back-flat landing not pictured.)
Activity needs:
- car
- rope (for towing)
- saucer sled
- Consent/Hold-Harmless forms (optional)
Optimal speed: 23 mph
Optimal road conditions: snowy
Optimal clothing: padded
