Activity Preview
Here are some favourite activities from past years that are likely to make a return:
Ladder Toss: Target practice that includes the 3rd dimension! Ladder Toss is a fun way to test your accuracy with some bolos and an elevated target with levels of points.
Mini Pickleball: Put your pickleball skills to the test with some friendly competition! Compete with your team to get 5 points as fast as possible. To gain a point, teams must rally 3 consecutive shots in a 2 v 2 fashion.
Squirt Bottle Relay: Don’t be afraid to get a little wet in Squirt Bottle Relay. You’ll be using a water-filled squirt bottle to propel your team’s ping-ping ball through an obstacle course of pool toys.
Bocce: Soak up the sun with this throwing and target challenge! Teams must get 3 points, by attempting to throw the bocce ball and hit the wiffle ball!
Cardio Pictionary: Participants will put their physical and artistic skills to the test in this cardio Pictionary activity! Teams will have one member move through the obstacle course to reach the white board at the end. They will then be given a word to draw on the whiteboard, while their team will have 1 minute to guess the word before the next team member can go. This is a head-to-head competition with the goal of being the fastest team!
Cornhole Tic Tac Toe: Welcome to Cornhole Tic Tac Toe! Team up and aim for victory in this exciting twist on the classic game. Strategize as you toss bean bags onto the Tic Tac Toe grid. But wait, there’s more! Take your shot at the Cornhole board behind the grid. Sink it through the hole and knock out your opponent’s bean bag from the grid to take the win. Quick thinking and precision are key to conquering this hybrid challenge!
Peer Pong: Face off against another team in a giant version of a classic game. Teams will compete to clear out giant buckets with volleyballs. Teams will have 2 volleyballs to start off with. Throwers will try to get the ball in the buckets by throwing from the throw line. Receivers will be behind the line on the other side of the court. Once they get a volleyball in a bucket, receivers will make their way to the bucket and carry it off the court. The player who threw the ball will then switch positions with the receiver.
Categories: Calling all wordsmiths! “Categories” beckons your linguistic prowess. This captivating game revolves around discerning common threads among words within designated categories. Working in teams, players strive to assemble four sets, each containing four words, while aiming to keep mistakes to a minimum—no more than four slip-ups allowed throughout the game.
Cheer Jacks: Cheer Jacks is based on the classic game of telephone, but with cheer-jack movements instead. One member from the team will be shown a sequence of the 4 different variations of cheer jacks and shows the next teammate and so on. Pass the movement on to the end and get 3 sequences correct!
Kan Jam: Try out this game involving Vancouver’s favourite pastime, Ultimate Frisbee. Part Target practice, part team defense, Kan Jam might be your new summer game.
More detailed information about the specific activities and rules will be available in mid-April.
