HOW TO GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR BIG SMOKE DAY

TLDR: Booked a scavenger hunt? Get ready for an unforgettable team day. Come prepared for the weather, wear comfortable shoes, charge your phone, embrace friendly competition and communicate with your team to maximise fun (and points). With everything organised by Big Smoke Events, all that’s left for you to do is dive in, get competitive and enjoy the experience.

You have booked one of our scavenger hunts. Congratulations, you are getting closer to one of the BEST team-building corporate days you could experience! Dare we say, our team building day could be the best day of your entire life.

You are going to love your Big Smoke day out.

We want to make sure that you get the most out of your day with us. Everything is in place for you and your teams to have a great morning, afternoon, or evening. To make this easier for you, this blog includes everything YOU need to do to ensure this is your best day yet!

First things first, come prepared. As we run scavenger hunts all year round and English weather is very unpredictable, you need to make sure you are prepared for the day and the weather ahead. So – without fear of sounding like your mother – that means:
·      Wear comfortable shoes
·      Bring a hat & sun cream
·      Bring a coat
·      Bring an umbrella
·      A FULLY CHARGED PHONE (this is the most important one, as you need to send all your photos and videos back live)

The next thing to do is to get competitive. It makes the scavenger hunt MUCH MORE FUN! It certainly adds an extra spark amongst the teams as you end up frantically trying to complete all 30 of our challenges. Remember, only one team can be the winner. So, to receive eternal glory from the Big Smoke and bragging rights in the office, you really do want to get competitive and take home the winning prize.

Our last tip to make sure you get the most out of your Big Smoke day is to communicate with your team. This is a team event after all. Play to your strengths and incorporate those around you to guarantee maximum fun and maximum points.

This is probably most important when it comes to winning, which, of course, is the main aim.

To ensure the day runs nicely and smoothly, we plan a start and end location, arrange the teams and challenges, and leave you to have fun.
With these helpful tips and reminders, you will be ready for all of the challenges you are about to face. We look forward to seeing you take on the Big Smoke Events!
