Video Game Maze- Finale! - Boys & Girls Clubs (Mission Clubhouse)
GAME ON! Our last week with the Boys and Girls Mission Club was a blast! All the pieces came together for a pac-man inspired obstacle course that was fun for everyone.
The water and sky team finished their underwater tunnels with christmas lights, interior drawings, and reflective squishy material to complete the theme AND make it more comfortable to crawl through.
After crawling through the underwater tunnels, the video game players/tinkerers made their way up the sky tunnel covered in clouds to the tower. From the upper deck of the tower the tinkerers could crawl into the elevator zip-line mobile, flying under the bridge, and ending by running into Kai (our fearless human brake system!)
From there the obstacles really came into play…once each player left the elevator-mobile the ghosts started to chase them as human pac-men! Two tinkerers controlled the pulleys to move the ghosts from the staircase, doing their best to chase and catch the pac-men as they strategically made their way through the maze. Our tinkerers came up with creative and silly ways to avoid the ghosts, but some of them still got caught!
The Water and Sky team make the night sky with drills, christmas lights, and making tape.

Talent, playfulness, and creativity combined for a an inventive end to our 8 week after school session :-)
