Looking for a teambuilding activity that goes
beyond trust falls and scavenger hunts? Beginning June 1, you can head to the
International Spy Museum for “Operation Spy,” a new hourlong
mission where as many as 15 people can act as U.S. intelligence officers out to
stop the sale of nuclear devices to rogue nations.
Based on a case drawn from actual U.S. intelligence files, the activity submerges guests in the world of espionage, where detecting double agents, digging through layers of deception, and making split-second decisions is literally the name of the game. Operation Spy feats include conducting video surveillance and a polygraph test, penetrating and escaping from a high-security compound, and cracking a safe to search for clues. The outcome for each group varies depending on the decisions made during the activity—some will save the world, while others will fail miserably. The museum charges $14 per person, though group rates will be announced later.
