Question by joseph t: What is a good website to find group recreation games that are outdoors and are fun for college students?
I am in charge of recreation for the Baptist Collegiate Ministries event for freshmen on the first weekend after school and I am having some trouble coming up with games that go along with our theme which is “Warrior”. Can anyone give me some ideas? They can be messy games.

Hmmm. “Warrior”, hm?
I like Cooperative Games for big groups like yours–could your warriors win by cooperating with one another?
Here are sites with some ideas for you:

I was a religious educator and a scout leader and these games always worked better than I expected them to. The groups liked competing against the task, instead of against one another, if you understand my meaning. They worked and played hard to beat the clock or to achieve the desired goal.
Good luck to you with your warriors.
