Our staff bought as many types of melon as you can
imagine- watermelon, cantaloupes, honeydews, santa claus melons, etc-
Walmart had a huge selection. Then we had a "Melon
Fest" in our rec room complete with cantaloupe bowling, a seed
spitting contest, a greased honeydew relay race/obstacle course, and
lots of melon to eat!!! We also had some auxiliary games like
foosball and air hockey going on. The seed spitting contest went
over really well with both sexes.
Instructions/Things Needed:
all the melons you can get.
bowling pins.
markers and tape measure for the seed spitting contest.
crisco for the greased melon relay race.
whatever items you need to to make a suitable obstacle course/relay
race.
good knives for cutting melons to eat.
Other Considerations:
People really liked that the food was healthy for a change.
It can be very messy- especially when cantaloupes explode when you
bowl with them. Go figure, right? Everyone loved the mess
of it all.
It appealed to both men and women a lot.
