TEAM BUILDING ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO GET EVERYONE ON YOUR TEAM WORKING WELL TOGETHER AND MOVING TOWARDS THE SAME GOALS IS TO CONDUCT REGULARLY TEAM BUILDING MEETINGS.

Good teams incorporate teamwork into their culture, creating the building blocks for success.”

Team building meetings can be critical components in establishing your team culture, which is a key element to productivity and success. They also let you bring everyone up to speed on what’s happening and why, which helps strengthen team communications, boost productivity, and streamline processes.

PRIMARY GOALS FOR TEAM BUILDING MEETINGS Foster a collaborative team environment Align everyone’s efforts Unify distributed teams

A group becomes a team when all members are sure enough of themselves and their contributions to praise the skill of others.”

There are many team building things to do in and around Costa Mesa including art workshops, biking, kayaking, outrigger canoeing, paddle boarding, rock climbing, sailing, and more. Here are two ideas: Rockreation Whether you want to get out of the office, have some fun together, work on interoffice relations, or anything in between, Rockreation is a great place for your corporate outing. Choose from corporate climb time or a full team building experience.

VOLUNTOURISM

ENGAGE. . .

Today, more than ever, corporations and associations are looking for meaningful ways to engage their meeting attendees with the destination by involving them in much needed humanitarian work.

However, not all organizations are created equal, and there is no one-size-fits-all project.

Travel Costa Mesa’s destination sales executives can help match your organization to one of our local charities. To find the right fit ask yourself:

What are your organization’s values?

What is your organization’s structure?

What is your budget and parameters?

How many participants are expected, and what are their limitations?

What are some additional ways to get involved?

Here are some charitable and community service organizations in Costa Mesa to consider for voluntourism:

Project Hope Alliance’s mission is to end the cycle of homelessness, one child at a time. They provide a holistic approach to solving challenges and addressing all aspects of life—educational, psychosocial, developmental, and financial. The nonprofit organization can accommodate 8-10 people at their facility or unlimited group size at an off-site venue.

1954 Placentia Ave., Ste. 202, Costa Mesa, 949.722.7863, projecthopealliance.org, vsher@ projecthopeallicance.org

Committed to developing deep and meaningful client experiences, the OneOC team of nonprofit professionals offer a range of service solutions connecting nonprofits and businesses, allowing them to strengthen the communities they serve. Group sizes vary, as does donation and time commitments.

1901 E. 4th St., Ste. 100, Santa Ana, 714.953.5757, oneoc.org, info@OneOC.org

The mission at Knots of Love is to warm the hearts and heads of those experiencing traumatic hair loss. Volunteers lovingly hand-knit and crochet caps for those struggling with treatmentinduced hair loss, as well as tiny neonatal blankets for fragile new lives in incubators.

SUSTAINABILITY

ECO-FRIENDLY COSTA MESA Named a LEED Gold City, Costa Mesa was recognized for sustainability achievement and a Tree City USA community in California by the Arbor Day Foundation. The city’s Department of Energy and Sustainability develops and implements programs that reduce its carbon footprint, increases resource efficacy, and minimizes waste. Costa Mesa was also one of the first cities in Southern California to provide a citywide organics recycling program, which aims to divert 50 percent of solid waste from the state’s landfills by converting the city’s green waste and food scraps to renewable natural gas.

One of the first eco-friendly retail and dining campuses in the country, The CAMP (2937 Bristol St., Costa Mesa, thecampsite.com) is designed with tanks, filters, and percolation wells underneath the parking lot that treats stormwater before it’s absorbed into the soil and underground water storage.

Around the property, there are 12 gardens growing herbs, fruit, and vegetables so the restaurants can source locally grown ingredients for their dishes. You’ll find a curated collection of eco-friendly and ethical brands.

the OC Fair & Event Center Farmers Market (ocfarmbureau.org) each Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Eco Now (930 Bristol St., A102, Costa Mesa, econowca.com), is located just across the street from The CAMP at The LAB Anti-Mall.

As Orange County’s first zero waste shop and bulk refill station, it offers plenty of plastic-free options and refills for everything from laundry detergent to shampoo. The friendly staff are happy to answer questions for those who aren’t familiar with zero waste or plastic-free living.

Foodies and home design enthusiasts alike will be in heaven at SOCO & The OC Mix (3313 Hyland Ave., A18, Costa Mesa, socoandtheocmix.com). Purchase a bottle of olive oil or vinegar from We Olive & Wine Bar and receive a discount when you bring your empty bottle in for a refill. Don’t forget to try the amazing flatbread pizzas and salads, too. Savory Spice Shop is also a resident here, where you can select spices by weight or purchase prepared jars that are additionally refillable.

EAT WELL

PARKS

Dr. Yasmine Mason founded Fermentation Farm (1125 Victoria St., Ste. R, Costa Mesa, fermfarm.com) in 2014 with the fundamental belief that a “Healthy Gut = Healthy Life.”

More than just a fermentation kitchen in Costa Mesa, they specialize in probiotic-rich and restorative foods that are necessary for proper gut and immune system and overall body wellness. Fermentation Farm offers a variety of educational classes including making bone broth and kombucha, fermenting vegetables, and more.

Costa Mesa shares some of the best natural parks to be found in Southern California. Open year round, Talbert Regional Park is a unique nature preserve that has nearly 200 acres of scenic landscape that’s perfect for hiking, biking, jogging, walking, a picnic, or just simply taking a breath of fresh air.

Savor seasonal fresh produce, live music, local meats, eggs, juices, sweets, nuts, sauces, dips and more every Saturday at SOCO Farmers Market (farmermark.com/soco). Shop everything local from seasonal produce to fresh flowers at

Fairview Park in Costa Mesa offers 208 acres of open space, including bluffs, an extensive trail system, and vernal pools—seasonal wetland pools that home distinctive and often endangered plant and animal species.

The park is home to several species of wildlife, including the burrowing owl, the snowy egret, white-tailed kites, and the American bittern.

Fairview Park’s greenery also includes California’s official state grass, purple needlegrass. Meanwhile, the 49-acre TeWinkle Park features a soothing lake with play areas, ball fields, tennis courts, and picnic areas.
