& Events
Maximum 12 participants per group. For larger groups please inquire.
Let's face it, the pandemic has dramatically changed the way we connect with the people we work with. Whether you are coming back to the workplace or have adopted a more flexible work set up for your team, getting together outside of the work environment to focus on connection and community is one of the best things you can do for your team and/or business.
Create a truly unique team building experience at Stable Places by getting out into nature and interacting with horses. Stable Places is situated on 2.5 acres surrounded by woods offering your team privacy and allowing people to fully relax into the experience. In our time together we focus on team communication, bonding, leadership and just plain fun which often translates into higher team morale and efficiency in the workplace.
At Stable Places we tailor your experience to meet your goals. Some groups simply desire a unique, fun shared experience to boost morale and develop connections. Others are looking for an opportunity to gain insight into strengths and areas of growth with a more comprehensive program of 2-3 sessions.

Why Horses?
Working with horses in team building offers unique insight into group dynamics. Horses are prey animals and rely on their social structures and instincts to survive. As teams are challenged to effectively communicate with one another as well as the horses to complete a series of tasks, patterns of communication are brought to light. All activities are unmounted (no riding), no prior experience with horses is necessary and those uneasy with being directly involved with horses can still actively participate. We often see that interacting with horses begins to externalize the dynamics of groups and allow for relevant conversations to follow naturally. Your event culminates with the team will have time to debrief or just hang out together around the campfire with the option of sharing a snack or meal together.
Scheduling
​
As with everything we do here at Stable Places, our guest experience is our top priority. Before bringing your team we have a brief meeting over the phone to learn about your unique work environment and what you hope to accomplish during our time. We find that groups of up to12 work best for our team building activities. If you are a larger company we suggest coming in groups/departments. We can’t wait to be a part of your team's growth!
