Just to let you know about a camp we ran a couple of years back which proved
quite popular with the boys and the leaders. It was a camp with a theme based on
the TV programme "The Crystal Maze".

Each day was themed around a "zone" such as medieval, future, ocean etc. Each
zone contained physical, mental , creative and mystery challenges (camp
programme activities based on the zones theme).

Points were awarded to the teams in the form of gold credits (painted card
squares) which were posted into a sealed team box. Point deductions for poor
daily inspection results, bad behaviour, etc, were made by the award of silver
credits.

On the last day of camp the team points were calculated (gold minus silver) and
the camp points prize awarded.

One main advantage of this programme was that you didn't have to think of three
or four days worth of activities based around the same theme.

Phil.
