Guided by a Tide Map and Tidal Tracker, participants will navigate interconnected challenge stations inspired by BMS’s home courses, collecting Crown Fragments and clues that must be pieced together in the final mission.

Just as every sunrise signals the promise of a new day, BMS Week: Sunbound marks both a celebration of the Business Management Society’s 40-year legacy and the beginning of its next chapter.
