Our programs help build trust among the team, and require team members to support each other physically as well as emotionally.
Program participants from Hand2Paw strengthened bonds and grew stronger as a team after just a day with OB Pro.

"I was really excited to work with Outward Bound and see our people build team building skills, leadership skills, and strong relationships with each other. It's amazing what can happen in such a short time. I see them come through this program with a deeper sense of empathy for one another because of the shared experience. They trust each other in a new way and they can work together more strongly and collaborate."

- Sara Schwartz, Development Director, Hand2Paw

"Pipeline" is a classic team building activity because it actively encourages communication, problem-solving, and coordination among team members.

Rock wall climbing requires a high level of trust among team members, as well as communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills to successfully navigate the challenges of the climb. Participants need to rely on each other to achieve a shared goal, which can foster stronger bonds and improve team dynamics.

This winter, we're offering challenging, hands-on group activities inside our location at The Discovery Center in Fairmount Park, including our 40-ft high climbing wall. Or if you're looking to hold a team-building retreat this winter at your location, we can come to you! With either option, you'll get the same team-building expertise Outward Bound is known for, but at a fraction of the cost. Contact Outward Bound Professional today >
