We don't like to brag, but people love this experience! 

When Ken from Conoco Phillips told his team what they would be doing during their retreat, they laughed at him.  They said it would, well, we can't use that word.  Imagine the smile Ken wore the day after Canvas Creek when his team, 27 men and one woman, gave him a standing ovation because of the experience.  Imagine our smile when he called to tell us about it.  We like getting standing o's for people.  
It's a team thing.

Moments

Great Times

"I can't believe how much we accomplished today; I know so much more about my teammates and we have a plan for success for the coming year.  We could not have done it without you." ~ Thad, after team building/strategic planning" 

"As I was focusing on the area of canvas that I was painting, it suddenly occurred to me that perhaps I should step back and look at what everyone else was doing to see what I might add to help bring it all together! I wasn't painting as an individual; I was painting as a team member!  An Ah-Ha moment!" ~ Marna

"After being frustrated that my elements kept changing I realized I made this for the group to take from. If someone changes it, that was my contribution to the team; there was value in their addition." ~Eric

"I spent a lot of time thinking about the experience and I think it helped me deal with some of my feelings of insignificance and how I need to speak up more often." ~ Barb

"Thank you so much for such a wonderful team building exercise for these dynamic people. The activity really captures their enthusiasm and creativity and you do such a nice job of facilitating. I appreciate your observations about the team and I will be sure and pass them along to their supervisors. I am so glad we found you! What a wonderful activity!" ~ Lynda

"I’ve been to a lot of hand holding, Kumbayah-type team buildings. This isn’t like that. It’s more." ~ Quinn

"At one point it was something else, now the group has taken it and improved it. It was not for me to own." ~ Al

"In less than 2 hours you completely changed my life. I love it and I can’t wait to get my football team to paint on a canvas. Talk about having a play by play vantage point of who is who! WOW." ~ Coach D

"What used to be a fight is now a conversation.  I don't know what happened exactly, but we get along and we even enjoy each other now." ~ Jamie 

"It’s safe to disagree on the canvas because everyone is invested and feels a different sort of connection." ~ Cathy

"We are going to use Canvas Creek again. They can definitely take us to the next level." ~ John
