We delivered one of our brilliant ‘Big Mix Up’ Quiz packages to Bridging Insights this week at Barony Castle. This was a fantastic event, and the clients were all up for a good laugh which made for an evening full of fun!
The two teams named themselves the ‘Daiquiri Daddy's’ and ‘Quizteama Aguilera’ — these names had us in stitches! Once the quiz began, everyone had their game faces on, ready to tackle each thrilling round. The energy in the room was tremendous and it was clear that everyone loved being a part of their team. Great effort everyone!
Evening Events Paired with Team Building
One of the best features of our Evening Events is that we are able to adapt our packages to suit any vibe, occasion, or crowd, which means we can ensure the clients will be in their element! Our clients at this event had a range of different strengths which really shone through from each member as the night went on. It is always great to have a range of different activities for the groups to embark on so there is something for everyone to excel at!
Pippa carried her team in our ‘saying what you see round’, which may sound easy, but can actually be quite challenging! It was so funny to see the rest of the team cheering her on as she led them to get the most points during that round. The dance moves from everyone in the room were electric and it was amazing to see everyone enjoying themselves.
Highland Games at Barony Castle
We took the Bridging Insights team through our excellent Highland Games event package the next day. Barony Castle has brilliant grounds which means we are able to deliver outdoor events in style. Our Highland Games package consists of different Scottish-themed activities and highlights different attributes of clan members from the original Highland games. This event always shows team spirit, and the team at Bridging Insights were brilliant at cheering on their team and showing their support.
The teams changed their previous team names to clan names ready for the games — the teams now were McDaiquiris and the Archegos. The McDaiquiris were especially outstanding at the Welly-Throw and gained a whopping 8,400 points for their team! This was down to great communication and strategy. On the other hand, the Archegos really shone at the Caber Toss and gained 7,600 points! Great effort from the teams.
Scottish-Themed Events Bring People Together
In the end, the McDaiquiris snagged 1st place for the Highland Games, coming in with a grand total of 37,000 points! This was a tremendous effort and definitely one for the Event Collection Hall of Fame! All in all, we had the best few days working with Bridging Insights and taking the teams through different activities that focussed on team building, but in a fun and relaxed way which ensured everyone could enjoy themselves. We can't wait to work with Bridging Insights again in the future!
Combine a Quiz Night with Outdoor Team Building
This two-day format — an evening quiz followed by a full day of Highland Games — is one of our most effective combinations. The quiz breaks the ice and gets people laughing together, so by the time the Highland Games begin the next morning, the competitive spirit is already at full throttle. It's a formula that works brilliantly for corporate away days and multi-day retreats.
