Because Rogers, Arkansas, has a bounty of attractions for a variety of interests and is a hub for corporate events of all sizes, it’s the perfect destination for meetings and events with engaging team-building excursions. Consider the following fun and thought-provoking activities for your next professional gathering.

Indoor Ideas for Team-Building Activities

The talented instructors at Paint Your Power know that art-based activities encourage creativity and cooperation, so they offer convenient customizable packages for corporate outings and private parties. These immersive art experiences include all art supplies and materials, step-by-step guidance from a teacher, and music by a DJ. 

Birdie and Brews is a community-driven space with a pour-your-own-beer wall, golf simulators and other entertainment that encourages patrons to connect. Book a few of the venue’s bays for your group (each one accommodates six players) and take advantage of the catering options available or bring your own food. 

K1 Speed, an indoor go-karting track, offers two-hour team building and bonding experiences for up to 30 individuals that include activities designed to improve employee morale, communication and connectivity. Or if you prefer a more casual outing, the track also offers “arrive and drive” races for smaller groups (reservations are recommended for crews of eight or larger).

For an all-inclusive experience without the hassle, reach out to Top Golf, which offers packages that include game play, food and drinks—and a dedicated staff to ensure your group has everything it needs. Consider the team-building package, three hours of golf and a schedule of other activities designed to build trust and cooperation and challenge your team to think strategically.

Outdoor Team-Building Activities 

Encourage co-workers to collaborate by organizing a scavenger hunt through historic downtown Rogers, a hub for culture, shopping and dining. Potential stops include The Railyard Bike Park, Honeycomb Kitchen Shop, The Rail — A Pizza Company, Rogers Historical Museum, Daisy Airgun Museum and Onyx Coffee Lab. 

Group water sports to promote collaboration and trust, and there’s no better spot to get out on the water than Beaver Lake or Lake Atalanta. Rent kayaks, paddle boards or tubes at Beaver Lake Outdoor Center or SUP Outfitters. Or if your crew prefers to stay on dry land, plan a group biking excursion with help from Phat Tire Bike Shop or Highroller Cyclery. 

The outdoor pros at 37 North Expedications, which provides expert-guided hikes and custom adventures in Northwest Arkansas, can help you put together a memorable group hike in the Hobbs State Park-Conservation Area. Unplug together in the wilds of the Ozarks and partake in activities that emphasize trust, problem solving and communication.
