Instructions

1. Crack the Code - a code locked box in a separate room can be unlocked using morse code clues spread around the hall. Neither the clues or the box can be moved.
2. Don't Break the Egg - drop an egg from the highest height possible without breaking it.
3. Biggest Balloon - blow the biggest balloon whilst blindfolded.
4. Potato Bridge - build the tallest bridge that can hold a potato using the resources given.
5. Spot the Difference - try and remember the table of objects after one piece has been taken away.
6. Eat the Digestive - place a digestive on your forehead and try to get it to your mouth and eat it without using your hands.
7. Tallest Tower - build the tallest spaghetti and marshmallow tower.
8. Bucket to Bucket - transfer as much water from one bucket to the other without touching either of them, using the resources given.
9. Speed Cracker - in their groups, the scouts get two/three crackers each and have to eat them as quickly as possible in relay.
10. Sticky Notes - one scout from each group is chosen to cover in sticky notes. The most amount of body covered in sticky notes in the time limit wins.
11. Find Me - a leader or chosen scout hides in the field and time each team how long it takes to find them.
12. Speed Knot - tie a reef knot as quickly as possible.
13. Teabag - throw a teabag into a mug from the furthest distance.
13. Secret Challenge - the scouts will not be told this one is going on. Every time a scout says the word "what", they gain a point.
