“Winnecowetts Olympics”

::

By: John Clements

The first Winnecowetts olympics is come and gone, and calling anything the “first” is really just asking for trouble, so I guess I’m just being optimistic.

Anyhow, it was a great success. We had 8 participants, and four events.

Target shooting

Shoot a nerf dart through a hanging bicycle tire. Three attempts at each distance.

  • Gold : Christopher Moulton & Alex Clements

Olympic Hide & Seek

  • Gold : Alex Clements, Ben Taylor, Xavier Clements

Tower Building

Build a tower out of Kapla blocks. Each team had the same number of blocks. I think it was about 40.
