Description
Smugglers
Game Description: Smugglers is a late night competition between four teams (villages). Each team will be provided with a set amount of cargo in which they must smuggle to a central location. Each night the game will run from 10:30 pm to 3:00 am. Only two cabins from each village will be allowed to carry out the mission per night. The Game will run consecutively starting Monday going until Friday night. Units will start in their villages and will have to locate their stash which will be marked with their respective colors. Each unit will take the cargo and attempt to smuggle it across ÛÏNight WatcherÛ territory and into safe haven which will be marked by a glow in the dark box. The box will be located in a different area every night and clue may or may not be given about the whereabouts of the box. Watch out! Players must watch out for the ÛÏNight WatchersÛ. If caught by the night watchers, the unit caught must go to the dungeon for the night. Males: Tree house. Females: Wigwam. The units cargo will also be forfeited for the night and no points will be awarded. Campers and Staff will need to go back to vllage to get their things to spend the night in the dungeon. Cargo may change forms between nights. One night your unit maybe carrying tennis balls, the next a canoe!
(A Note on Night Watchers)
Night watchers are the last people that you want to run into. Night Watcher syndrome is a condition that turns normal counselors into patrol maniacs between the hours of 11:pm and 3:00 am. These kind hearted people are transformed into hunting machines who will find you, take your loot and send you to jail. Night Watcher’s territory is usually in the heart of camp and the headquarters is a eerie tent marked by dismal and grizzly trophies and décor. Night Watchers usually ply music in their quarters when they are there. If you don’t hear music Watch Out, they are on the loose! When scavenging for loot on the move, Night Watchers bare a Red Light and are usually silent so watch for the red light. Night Watchers WILL NOT POP OUT AND SCARE YOU!!!!
