BRIEFING
This custom adventure hunt has been created specifically for your group and your location. It will be a fun team-based competition that will challenge you, encourage you to explore the area, and get you to create unforgettable memories with your group. Our unique format that allows you to choose which challenges your team wants to attempt makes it easy for everyone to have fun and be involved. In this briefing we have provided some important information to help your team prepare for the experience. You can also contact the event HQ at anytime 24/7 via email at HQ@TeamBuildingAnywhere.com.
DOWNLOAD THE EVENT APP
Please download the Bonfyre app on any and all Apple or Android devices you plan to use during the experience. If you don’t have an Apple or Android device it’s not a problem at all. As long as someone on your team has it this free app will enable your team to submit your challenge pictures and videos for verification. It will also provide a direct line of communication between your team and our HQ if you should have any questions along the way.
You can click on the buttons below from your mobile device to download the app, or search your app store for “Bonfyre App”. It's a very simple and intuitive group chat app, but if you need some tips on how to use it you can access the "Help" tool under the Account tab in the app.
When creating your Bonfyre account, please use the same email address that the briefing email was sent to. Leading up to your event you can log in and find two separate group chats added to your account. One for all teams in the race, and a private one for only your team members. Join both and start corresponding with our HQ and your other team members.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Leading Up To Event:
Once you’ve downloaded the app, join any chat groups that have been created for your event. It may be helpful to submit a few test pictures or videos to make sure you’re comfortable using the app before the event starts.
The days leading up to the start are a great time to procure some fantastic team outfits or costumes. We encourage you to wear comfortable athletic attire and sneakers. You may be completing active challenges, traveling across a variety of surfaces, and could end up getting slightly sweaty/dirty/wet depending on the weather and what challenges you chose to attempt.
The Event:
By 3:45pm on Wednesday your group should all meet near the water feature within Romare Bearden Park in Uptown Charlotte (300 S Church St). See the picture with the red arrow.
Right at the designated start time of 4pm our HQ will post the link to the full challenge list in your private Team Chat and a PDF version will be emailed to you. The mobile website will include challenge descriptions and some links to information or videos that will help you complete the challenge successfully. The list will consist of custom challenges that are designed to bring you together through fun, meaningful, difficult, or slightly embarrassing experiences. Complete as many as possible, in any order, within the designated time frame. You’ll need to all stay together as a team throughout the event.
Some challenges may require a few basic supplies to complete them. Figuring out how to obtain these supplies somewhere in the area is part of the strategy so work together and use what you’ve got to get what you need.
The safety of your team and those around you needs to be your top priority. Please follow all state and local health guidelines and laws. Some of the challenges may require you to interact with local citizens and businesses in some way. Please represent yourselves and your organization well when you are out in the community.
After The Event:
The event will last for 2 hours, but as the end approaches, your team should make their way to Rooster’s Wood Fired Kitchen (150 N College St) so that you arrive there by 6pm for dinner reservations and a post-race gathering. Our HQ will have the full results of the event within a few minutes of the finish. Depending on what your group’s contact person has specified, we will either announce the team standings shortly after the finish within the mobile app, or we will provide that contact person with the results so that they can announce them in their preferred manner.
