Treasure Hunt
Some direction samples would be:
"Head ten paces o'er to the lake,
then look at the log with the mold;
Then head south and stop at the red painted rock,
Hurry! The treasure grows old."
You may have clues all through the woods, tacked up so nobody may remove them.
To add to the suspense, each team must carry a raw egg throughout the hunt. If they should break the egg, they must return to the lodge and sit one minute before they receive another egg.
Human Foosball
Large Groups Games
Use Pool noodle as hockey sticks, a ball as a puck, and chairs to make a goal. Split into two teams and assign numbers. Call out two number to run to the middle to grab the noodles and attempt to be the first to score.
Field Game- Extreme Soccer
Set up four goals in a cross shape, creating two intersecting fields. Divide into four teams, and use two balls to play two games of soccer at once.
Water Game- Watermelon Wrestling
Fill a kiddie pool with water, fill a bucket with Vaseline, and place a watermelon in the bucket. Divide into two teams, and choose individuals or teams to get in the pool, and try to get the watermelon to their team first.
