Racing against the clock, gathering clues and facing risk versus reward challenges make for just another day at Doral Arrowwood. Or at least key elements of The Remarkable Race, the resort’s newest team-based activity.
The resort partnered with True North Teambuilding to offer the program, loosely based on TV show The Amazing Race for groups of 30 or more. Teams race against each other to find and solve a series of challenges while picking up clues and items along the way. Faced with roadblocks, obstacles and of course, the ticking of the clock, teams fight to finish first as well as collect the most points. Groups can customize the program based on company or meeting themes and have the option to hold it outdoors or indoors, making it available year-round.
Doral Arrowwood is not new to the creative, out-of-the-ordinary group activity options, often working with True North Teambuilding to offer culinary-, corporate social responsibility- and recreation-focused programs. Summer Camp Relay, Office Escape and Backpacks for Success and Bar Wars are just some group activities designed to add bonding, productivity and motivation to a group meeting or event.
The 369-room resort, located 30 miles north of Manhattan, features the Doral Executive Center, offering 70,000 square feet of meeting space including three amphitheaters and the Westchester Wing, with additional meeting and breakout rooms; a 230-seat restaurant; and a private entrance and dedicated parking.
