  1. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Christian Youth Camp - Balloon Gauntlet Hit the Balloon through the gauntlet to the other team’s goal. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  2. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com IntroductionHit a balloon toward a goal and it doesn’t always go where intended. The same is often true in our pursuit of goals in life. But with teamwork and concerted effort we can make progress toward the goals God has laid out for us. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  3. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com • Game Materials • Inflated balloons. You might want to have several extras in case one busts. • A chair for each youth participating. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  4. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game Preparation Arrange the chairs in two rows facing each other. One youth is assigned to each chair. Each row numbers off, with those calling odd numbers being assigned to one team and the youth calling out even numbers assigned to the other. Odds are assigned an end of the gauntlet as their goal. Evens are assigned the opposed end as their goal. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  5. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Game Play A balloon is placed or tossed in the middle between the two lines of youth, an equal distance from each end. Each team (Odds or Evens) hits the balloon when it is within range. They can choose to hit it to another player, up, down, or across the rows. The balloon cannot be held or thrown but must be tapped or hit. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  6. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com When a goal is scored, the balloon is placed back in the centre of the two rows, an equal distance form the two ends and play starts again. If a balloon goes wide out of range it is tossed back in from where it went out. The winner is the team which has scored the most goals after a set period of time. www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

(Luke 13:32; John 17:4; 1 Corinthians 9:26,27; Philippians 3:13,14; 2 Timothy 4:7,8) • What are some of the goals we should have as Christians? (1 Corinthians 9:24,25; 2 Peter 1:5-8; 1 Peter 3:15; Hebrews 10:24,25) • What role does the rest of the Body of Christ play in setting our goals? (1 Corinthians 3:4-9) www.CreativeScavengerHunts.com

  11. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Camp Curriculum - Whale of a Tale Bible Studies based on the book of Jonah Only. This youth camp curriculum was designed to teach the basic truths of obedience in addition to evangelism in the context of a Biblical character. The advantage of going through a book and looking at one man's story is that we see not only the teaching but the example. It becomes much more real! -> Tell me about “Whale of a Tale” www.creativeyouthideas.com/resources/order5.html

  12. www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Creative Youth IdeasCamp Bible Study Series“Who Do You Say that I AM?” Jesus asked the disciples, "Who do others say that I am?" It was easy to answer because it required no conviction, no commitment, and no risk. But then he follows that question with another, "Who do YOU say that I am?" -> Tell me about “Who Do You Say that I AM?” www.creativeyouthideas.com/resources/whodoyousay.html
