The Scenario:

Vanished! Without a trace. Deep in the Canadian wilderness, a team of leading scientists set out to locate a rare flower. Their mission complete, the scientists were headed home. But they never arrived. Your world-famous team is summoned for this incredibly challengeing search-and-rescue mission.

The Program:

• Your team must ultimately locate the scientists, treat their injuries, and evacuate them to safety
• Team members will be split up and be trained in one area of specialization that may include:
  • high angle rescue
  • rope stretcher construction
  • orienteering with compasses and GPS
  • wilderness first-aid and base camp management
  • radio communication
• Once the Search and Rescue begins all of these diverse skills must be integrated with precision and speed

Program Outcomes:

• Elevating team spirit and morale
• Creating “big-picture” thinking and generating interdepartmental collaboration
• Deepening a sense of responsibility, empowerment, and ownership
• Finding the winning balance between planning and execution
• Fostering effective communication
