Rain or Shine

Monday night's activity...

Every night after dinner there is a special activity, Monday we had the LT Hunt.
In past years, the Leadership Team and some members of staff would position themselves around the camp. Monday it was raining on and off while we were eating so everything was wet and it was ready to rain again.

The awesome program staff adjusted things and now the LT and Staff were spread throughout the main lodge.

Each cabin was given a list of unique facts. The cabins, as a team had to guess which unique fact went with which person.

The catch: the cabin must act, mime, motion, or whatever it takes other than talking to the LT.

So it would go something like this...
  1. cabin moves together as a group (or is wrangled) to find an LT that is available.
  2. cabin chooses a fun fact from the sheet that they think belongs to the LT.
  3. cabin members, without taking, do what ever it takes to clue the LT into understanding what they are doing. (after many different attempts)
  4. LT figures out what they are acting out and says 'yes, they chose the right one' or 'no'. Sometimes you get more than one turn.
  5. the cabin team moves on to another LT until the time runs out.

Here are some of the clues. You may want to ask your camper about it.

  • Garrison Keillor was my dinner mate.
  • Last month I was hiking in the Alps
  • Two medium pizzas in one sitting is my style.
  • I have a black belt.
  • If I were a fruit, I would be an orange.
  • Onomatopoeia is my favorite word.
  • Zip-lining in 3 countries is my fame.
  • I have ridden a dolphin.
  • ...
No LT members were hurt during the LT hunt...
