Team Building Event Swb Beleuchtung GmbH
As a team guide for CityHunters, I had the pleasure of leading a special event on November 21, 2024, at 4:00 pm: 46 colleagues from Swb Beleuchtung GmbH met on Langenweg in Oldenburg to set off on a Geocaching tour together. The energy was palpable — curiosity, team spirit and excitement for a shared adventure set the tone for a great experience.
After a brief welcome and an explanation of the schedule, the teams received their tablets with the CityHunters app. I went over how tasks appear, which clues matter and how the scoring works. The groups were then formed: seven teams started the competition for the highest score and headed off to explore the city center.
Our route took the teams past familiar Oldenburg landmarks — a view of Oldenburg Castle was a must, as were stops near the Lambertikirche and the Oldenburg State Theatre. The mix of sights and tricky challenges made the Geocaching a great team building experience in Oldenburg.
The weather showed its rugged side, but rain and fresh air could not dampen spirits. On the contrary: the typical North German November weather inspired perseverance, good humor and a strong sense of togetherness. Teams solved puzzles, completed creative tasks and collected points — sometimes loudly exchanging ideas, sometimes focused and working in rhythm.
I was reachable by phone throughout the tour to answer questions or sort out technical issues. After exactly two hours everyone met back at Langenweg for the awards ceremony. There was a buzz of excitement as the points were added up.
The podium: Team Abfahrt took first place decisively with 225 points. Second went to The Winner with 180 points, closely followed by Hell's Bells with 165 points. Congratulations to all teams — every contribution helped make this team building event a success.
Moments like these show why a team building experience in Oldenburg is so valuable: it brings together shared experiences, fun and collaboration in a place full of stories. I am already looking forward to the next adventure and more unforgettable hours with new teams in Oldenburg.
