PTB Giving Back To Communities

We have various different charity events for teams to participate in, including Bicycle Building, Stuffed Animal Building, Mini Golf and many more! At the end of each of these events we have a collection of items that are then donated to local charities. Through these events we were able to donate to children in times of need.

In the last year we donated:

• 47 bicycles to local fire departments and Big Brothers Big Sisters
• 33 stuffed animals to local fire departments and hospitals
• 200 bags of school supplies
• over 500 lb of canned foods
• 1,000's of Random Acts of Kindness
• $10,000+ spend on local business'

Locally owned and operated in New England

We are a group of fun-loving outdoors people. Having fun and personal growth has always been an important element of life.

Our humble beginnings started with spending family time outdoors and geocaching on weekends. Using a handheld GPS to find a hidden treasure was a fun and exhilarating activity. 

After New Hampshire Chronicles aired a story on our family geocaching adventures, the concept of Portsmouth Team Building events was born. It only made sense to incorporate technology with outdoor team building. Adults need to have some fun especially getting to know each other outside the office. Incorporating our events into company meetings has been an amazing combination.

After starting Portsmouth Team Building into 2012, we created New England Team Building and expanded out to several other locations. Even though we conduct the outdoor team building all year round, we also have unique indoor team building events. In 2017, we've expand into Portland and Boston. In 2018, we open our corporate location in downtown Portsmouth NH.

We want every experience to be memorable, unique, and relatable back to the business world. Allowing employees to participate in these events in an informal environment allows them to get to know each other on a much deeper level. 

We do hope you join our adventure too! :-)
