Our Event Team Leaders

Chris Cassone, the heart of Treasure Hunt Adventures, has brought orienteering-based programs to the NY metro area since 1982. He developed the Treasure Hunt for Scouts who were having problems learning map skills. Soon, schools were asking for his multi-day sessions on interdisciplinary orienteering. In 1990 he produced his first corporate event for Pepsico and since then has led over 10,000 corporate leaders from over 35 Fortune 500 companies in team builders.

In 2012, Treasure Hunt Adventures became a truly international team building company when Chris led Chevron’s China Energy Leadership Team in a full day of exercises on Hainan Island in the South China Sea. In addition, Harvard Business School’s Orientation Day which included 900 incoming MBA candidates set new standards in team building with such large numbers.

An experienced facilitator, a nationally competitive orienteer and an entertainer with a knack for pizzazz, Chris splits his time between New York and Los Angeles, bringing his fun corporate team bonding events throughout the country and now, the world.
