CHELSEA PIERS INTRODUCES NEW PIER TO PEER SCAVENGER HUNT

TEAM BUILDING EXERCISE DEVELOPED TO CHALLENGE THE MIND

((New York, NY – June 26, 2003) – Building on its extremely popular corporate team building program, Chelsea Piers unveils its newest program this month, Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt. Developed in response to companies requesting non-traditional team building activities, Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt encourages team members to work together to earn the greatest number of points while creatively solving clues about the historic Chelsea Piers. Although all the answers may be found at Chelsea Piers, teams must move quickly because they only have a limited time to explore the 30-acre sports village.

Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt is unique in concept and location. No other team building program has such an expansive facility to use as a tool. Chelsea Piers is so comprehensive that companies can start in a traditional meeting room at the Piers, participate in Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt and then end with a catered lunch or boat ride around Manhattan - all without leaving the complex.

“We are very excited to introduce Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt,” commented Mollie Marcoux, First Vice President of Strategic Planning and Business Development at Chelsea Piers. “It is very different from the traditional idea of team building and the facility here at Chelsea Piers affords us the unique opportunity to create this kind of program.”

In addition to Pier to Peer Scavenger Hunt, the Chelsea Piers team building program also includes Mini-Olympics Games and Experiential Games. Mini-Olympic Games, for the sports orientated, requires employees to organize teams and compete in sports such as basketball, rock climbing and sand volleyball. Experiential Games, geared towards problem solving with some physical and/or mental challenge, include popular games like River Rapids, Trust Walk and Spider Web. All three team building formats offer companies and groups a custom-designed program that focuses on the leadership and team skills essential to any successful organization.
