The Whitewater Rafting thread made me realize that this was a good place to get ideas.

My company is looking for ideas for a corporate retreat for my (IT) department. I’m looking for a combination of team building exercises, extracurricular activities, etc, plus some meeting times too. The plan is to spend 2 or 3 days. I’m looking for some more ideas. Last year we went to Lake Lanier and spent a couple of days at Emerald Point. We went water skiing, and innertubing. Had a great time, but we want something fresh for this year. We’re tenatively planning something early August.

Here’s a couple of places I found.

Challenge course, pistol ranges, horseshoes, skeet, pool.

Horseback riding, Onsite adventure programs (whatever that is), preplanned team building activites.

Any other ideas?
