Raft Building
Far removed from the traditional barrel and plank exercise, and much more fun, this activity requires planning and design and is great for unobtrusively promoting teamwork and leadership skills. Groups build their own rafts from garden canes, tape and tarpaulin, then put them to the test across a course parallel to the shore. Everyone is involved throughout, and the testing of the rafts is done by the crew being increased one at a time by the design/construction team and makes for a great finale.
