A hightlight of Cristoval, for the last four years now, is the “Tea Game”. Everyone is divided into teams with equal amounts of children and youth on each team. Then they have to scour the 14 acre property looking for six ingredients, wood, matches, water, tea, a tin can, and rubbing alcohol. They cannot start their fire until they have everything. The first team to boil a pot of tea wins.
Other highlights include the Jail (25 cents to put someone in, 25 cents to get someone out), the rocket contest, throwing an American football and kicking an soccerball through tires, a pellet gun, a tug-of-war with water balloons, and a three-person race.
The winning team from all the days got two boxes of chocolate, and 4 2-litres of pop.
Of course, lots of good food is also a highlight. And we have some great cooks in our midst!
