Guest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 I hate obstacle courses as well, every time we did it the circuit got smaller and smaller, so we don't do them any more but do a sponsored search instead. We give each child a sheet with a picture of things on, eg elastic band, sweet wrapper, stamp etc. They take this home and collect the things on the sheet. People sponsor them to collect the things, with 20 children we raised £148. Easy money. Mind you some years we don't raise as much!!!!! Hope you can understand the above, my fingers keep making mistakes, no wine involved I promise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beau Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 Good luck with that one Hali. At least it's only once a year!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 We have sponsored obstacle course just before Easter each year. It's a bit manic but raises about £600 (including Easter raffle) so we can't grumble! Good luck for yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hali Posted May 26, 2004 Author Share Posted May 26, 2004 Thank you all Actually for once it wasnt too bad... I made the course much bigger this year so there wasnt too many bottlenecks and children queuing. If all the money comess in we should raise about £600 so musnt grumble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
