Changing Tides Team Building

Point Reyes Outdoors has developed a unique program that combines the benefits of team building exercises with on water experiences.  This day of fun-filled challenges is suitable for any group students, scouts, schools, families and even adult organizations. The course is easily adapted to your group’s dynamics, abilities and desires. Our facilitators create and maintain a safe environment for all activities and a comfortable atmosphere for discussion of the day’s events.

The day’s activities are designed to encourage creative thinking, problem-solving, and removal of group inhibitors.  Different activities promote different roles for each participant and all participants have opportunities to act in leadership roles as the day evolves. After each activity and at the end of the day, the group will have the opportunity to discuss and assess what they experienced, what they observed or learned, and how these things apply to their lives.

The day begins learning about the appropriate gear for kayaking and basic paddling techniques. With these skills in hand we ready ourselves to launch the kayaks. Once on the water, we will spend some time just getting the hang of it, talking about the natural history of the area and paddling on the bay.
