Team members will toss the glove back and forth, taking a step back (distance set by watching the toss) after each successful toss. If the “referees” glove is dropped, that team is out. If the glove bursts, the team is out. Last team to remain wins. Notes: Although Lab gloves are pretty sturdy, we will pre-fill the thinnest gloves we can find up with water as much as we can. The potential for the gloves to pop upon contact are minimal, which is why the team is eliminated if the glove is just dropped. Coffee Cup Race: Number of People: entire team until cylinder is filled Equipment Needed: Coffee cups; 5x2L plastic graduated cylinders and one bucket of water Rules: Person #1 will scoop water out of the communal water cooler and get as quickly to the other end of the field as possible, without spilling much water out of the cup. They will pour the water into the graduated cylinder and run back to the start line, passing off the coffee cup to Person #2. Repeat this process until the cylinder is filled to the 2L mark. Notes: If your cup is crushed or gets a hole in it, you better run faster. Biohazard Sack Race: Number of People: 6 Equipment Needed: Large Red Biohazard Bags Rules: Person #1 steps into bag and jumps across field to team member waiting at the other side. They trade out of the bag in which person #2 jumps back down the field. Everyone repeats until the final leg crosses the finish line. First team to cross wins. Tie Breaker: Over under between the tied teams Number of People: everyone (must be equal numbers between the teams though) Equipment Needed: Filled water glove The team lines up in a single file line facing forward. Person #1 will pass the glove under their legs to person #2. Person #2 will then pass the glove over their head to person #3. This will continue until the last person in line gets the glove. Once the last person in line gets the glove they run to the front of the line and pass the glove under their legs to the person behind them. Once the person who started at the front gets back to the front, everyone in line sits down. The first team to complete the task and sit down is the winner. Have fun and Enjoy and take lots of pictures! --MPBGSA
