One member of each team is required to participate in one of the five stations on the race course. At the end of the course there will be a team challenge that will incorporate all the team members working together.
At one station teams will compete against each other in a lasso challenge. Teammates being lassoed will have their hands up, covering their face and neck, ready to be lassoed up.
At another station a team member will be given a simple math problem and be required to solve for a certain number. They will then go to the specified block pit and find their blocks (painted cardboard with a number printed on it) and will be required to build a structure such as the campanile or a prominent building using those blocks.
The third station will have a team member handed a hard hat, goggles, lab coat, and a baseball bat. They will then be required to run a pre-determined course.
Another station will have each member eat a number of pies.
At the last station a team member will be handed a potato sack and will be required to place both feet inside of the sack and hop around a pre-determined course.
The team challenge will consist of each team member working together to spell out VEISHEA or some other ISU logo with their bodies on the ground. They must spell it out correctly to be counted!
To ensure the safety of our participants there are a few procedures that all participants will be required to follow.
