Goal of the Activity

Outdoor water-based fun experience, perfect for escaping the heat and reveling in the pure, childlike enjoyment of it all.

Description

Activity 1: Sponge Soak-Up.

Place buckets filled with water at one end and empty buckets at the other. Each team member has to run to the filled bucket, soak a sponge in water, and then run to the empty bucket to squeeze the water out. The team that fills their bucket the fastest wins.

4 Buckets, 2 sponges

Activity 2: Waterpong

Set up a table with cups arranged in a traditional beer pong formation. Fill the cups with water instead of beer. Split into teams and take turns attempting to throw a ping pong ball into the opposing team's cups. When a team successfully lands a ball in a cup, the opposing team must face a refreshing consequence—they get splashed with water! Keep the game going until all the cups on one side have been eliminated.

Table, 12 cups, balls

Activity 3: Water Bucket Cascade

Form teams of equal size and have each team sit down in a line, with their empty buckets. The first person in each line is given a filled bucket of water. Without looking, the first person must throw the water to the next person in line and so on. The objective is to fill your team's bucket more than the other team.

4 buckets

Activity 4: Flag Dash

Divide participants into teams and designate a playing area with marked boundaries. Place flags at various locations within the playing area. Each team equips themselves with water pistols filled with water. The objective is to capture the opposing team's flags and bring them back to your team's home base without getting wet. Players can shoot water at opponents to tag them. When tagged, the wet player must return to their team's home base before continuing. If a player successfully captures a flag, they must protect it while returning to their team's home base without getting tagged. The team that captures the most flags within a specified time limit or the team that captures all the flags first wins the game.
