SHARK HUNT!!
The Shark Hunt is a scavenger hunt game. The kids will be given a
'treasure map' for the event location and they'll have to locate
secret caches with stickers in them. Once all their maps are filled
with the stickers the Shark Master will bring out the Shark Grab
Box and each kid will pick a prize out of the Shark. Everyone
Wins!
CHICKEN CHUCKIN'
The kids are going to be using clucking chickens, mooing cows,
quacking ducks, oinking pigs, squealing monkeys, and croaking frogs
to score points on the dartboard. These are no ordinary animals. oh
no. These animals are slingshot animals! The kids will hook their
fingers in their beaks, noses or whatever, yank their legs back and
let them fly towards the target! There will be special prizes for
the highest scores and the Kid's Prize Table for everyone.
Parents... if your child(ren) will be playing the games please
let us know in your RSVP to ensure we have enough goodies for the
junior cachers. The entry fee for each kid's game is one new, child
appropriate prize per child (approx value $5.00).
