Ball Hockey

Practice your shot and improve your accuracy. Hockey nets and sticks are set up in our "They shoot, they score" range. Elaborate goal celebrations strongly encouraged.

Broomball

The exact origin of broomball is quite difficult to pinpoint. Many believe it involved the First Nations in Canada who passed the sport on to the settlers. Others say it evolved from a type of game played between Vikings in 10th century Scandinavia. What we do know for sure is that it’s a ton of fun. Try it out in our special broomball court at this year’s festival!

Stack Attack

Stack the blocks in layers of three, alternating the direction of the blocks with each layer, to make a sturdy tower. Players take turns to cautiously pull or push a wooden block out of the tower and place the removed block on the top, following the same layering pattern.

Be careful! Be steady! Because the last player to complete their turn before someone makes the tower topple…wins!
