Hi,
One day outing will itself give you ample opportunity for team building. Make the outing entertaining so that each one attending enjoy and forget their official stress. Some basic planning is required, and also depends upon number of members attending, budget alloction or sharing etc :-
Selection of the outing place.
Like near to your place so that you can return back by evening.
Should be a picnic spot or a natural beauty for eg. beach, park etc.
Transport
A common transport should be used. If the journey is of more than 1 hour, organise introductions/jokes/personal life experiences/chorus singing in the bus, so that the bond starts building before reaching the spot. Ensure that no personal comments are made under any circumstances.
Organise team games, or entertainment programme which involves all the members attending, always encourage all even the looser, be a sport. Select team builders from the members and make them captain of any event you want to organise, they will bring team spirit automatically while playing the game.
Catering can be outsourced, ensure food should be of common menu for veg and non veg, the same can be selected before hand by floating a circular before departure for the outing. It will be better if the thing is cooked at the place of outing. All other amenities is also to be worked out like plenty of drinking water,cold drinks, snacks etc.
After the outing take feedback from each and all and note down their suggestions and advises, the bad experience and the good and improve more in the next outing.
Regards
