Team Building Programs - Maine Meetings - York Harbor Inn, Ocean Resort Maine

Taking the “bored” out of board room meetings – a seaside setting, sand castles, even chocolate, make the York Harbor Inn an innovative campus for your next conference

YORK HARBOR, MAINE - The York Harbor Inn team is always working to find new and exciting ways to engage meeting attendees. Recognizing that today’s businesses need to go beyond the boardroom, The York Harbor Inn is introducing new meeting forums to inspire team building and brainstorming – to break out of the traditional bored boardroom. For the summer and fall of 2007, The York Harbor Inn is featuring two new “think outside the bored room” group activities.

Team Sand Sculpting at York Harbor Beach
For outdoor enthusiasts, roll up your sleeves for “Team Sand Sculpting at York Harbor Beach.” Internationally known sand sculptor Justin Gordon will provide your group with an incredibly inspiring sand castle demonstration, then lead your group with hands on instruction. This fun but focused program can be adjusted to meet your particular group’s size and needs. Master-sculptor Gordon provides an entertaining and productive team building activity at our beautiful Oceanside location, just steps from the York Harbor Inn. The Team Sand Sculpting program includes all tools and materials as well as instruction and organized competition and awards. The key to improving your work relations may just lay in the sand, and a “dig in” day at the beach. Your group’s efforts will be immortalized in a team photo and each team member will receive a copy to take with them as a memento and reminder of the relationships built and strengthened by your event at the seaside.

In the Company of Chocolate
For groups with an interest in all things sweet and chocolaty, the York Harbor Inn now offers a decadent “In the Company of Chocolate” program. We all know chocolate holds a certain power over certain people. Put on an apron and learn to make fancy fine quality chocolates with your team mates. Your group will be invited into the charming kitchen of nearby fancy Chocolatier Susan Tuveson. There Susan will introduce you and your team members to the fine art of chocolate making. She does wonderful things using exciting ingredients like curry, juniper, cardamom and more. This seemingly sweet group activity may hold the secret ingredient to improving work relations. Your guests will receive a York Harbor Inn apron and a team photo as well as a batch of the most wonderful chocolates ever, as nothing tastes better than that which we make ourselves.
