Outdoors Camps

And speaking of relay races… here’s another classic summer camp activity. It’s the greased watermelon! There are several versions of this, but basically you take a good sized watermelon, coat it with shortening, toss it in the water (yep, it floats) and then you try to push it through the water as a relay. You can also set up two teams and play a little “soccer” with two goals. Lots of outdoor summer action in the cool water of the lake.
