Girlguiding Leeds County Crystal Maze Activity Day
On Sunday, 29 September 2024, Girlguiding Leeds County hosted an exhilarating Crystal Maze Activity Day that brought together 200 enthusiastic Guides, Rangers and their dedicated leaders. The event, held at the picturesque Robin Hole Activity Centre, was a day filled with excitement, teamwork, and unforgettable memories.
The day kicked off with a warm welcome from the event organisers, who set the tone for the adventure ahead. The Guides and Rangers, divided into teams, were eager to tackle the challenges inspired by the iconic Crystal Maze TV show. Each team navigated through a series of themed zones, including Aztec, Medieval, Industrial, Ocean and Futuristic, each presenting unique puzzles and physical challenges.
The Aztec Zone tested the Guides’ and Rangers’ agility and problem-solving skills with tasks like crossing a rope bridge and deciphering ancient symbols. In the Medieval Zone, the teams faced mental challenges, such as solving mathematical problems, walking the plank and playing head hockey. The Industrial Zone required precision and coordination, with activities that included blind fold nightline and team grass skiing. Finally, the Futuristic Zone pushed their creativity and innovation as they tackled string lasers and games of phones.
Throughout the day, the Guides and Rangers demonstrated incredible teamwork, communication, and perseverance. Leaders provided guidance and encouragement, ensuring that every participant felt supported and included. The atmosphere was electric, with cheers and laughter echoing across the activity centre.
One of the highlights of the day was the grand finale in the Crystal Dome. Teams entered the dome to collect as many “golden tickets” as possible within a limited time, a thrilling conclusion that had everyone on the edge of their seats. The winning team was celebrated with a special award ceremony, where they received trophies to commemorate their achievement.
The Girlguiding Leeds County Crystal Maze Activity Day was not just about fun and games; it was an opportunity for the Guides and Rangers to develop essential life skills, build lasting friendships, and create cherished memories. The event was a resounding success, leaving everyone eagerly anticipating the next adventure.
