Who Let The Dogs Out…At Farncombe

New Teambuilding Course At  Farncombe Estate
Ever wanted to yell MUSH! while leading a team of husky dogs along a snowy wilderness trail?

Well now you don’t have to travel to the frozen Arctic, as Farncombe Conference Centre, near Broadway, has introduced a new half-day team-building experience with participants learning the expert skills needed to handle a dog sled travelling at speed. 

Sled dog adventure specialist Arctic Quest joins an impressive line-up of teambuilding providers at the centre which also offers a diverse range of course and experience days throughout the year. Corporate and other groups can enliven their events with cupcake decorating and sheep herding, street luging or sushi-making. 

Vickie Pullin, managing director at Arctic Quest said: “Working with huskies is the perfect 
team-building experience.  Along with the sled handler, the dogs instinctively work as a team and respond well to the necessary trust and respect needed to get from A to B.  Participants quickly develop a bond with the dogs, very much akin to colleagues working collaboratively as a team in the workplace.”

For those looking to unleash their adventurous spirit, in just half a day a ‘musher’ will gain a real sense of teamwork and understand what the dogs are really capable of.  That’s all while driving a dog sled across the rolling Cotswold hills.  The day rounds off with a gathering around a roaring fire along with everyone’s tales from the trail.  

Jilly Jones, marketing manager at Farncombe Conference Centre, added: “Arctic Quest and the husky experience is an exciting addition to the already varied team-building programme.  We look forward to welcoming to the centre all those intrepid Arctic adventurers out there.”
