As Clubs came to a close, it was time
for the Seniors to focus on their agility, ability to work as a team,
and creativity because it was time for throwback games! All campers
would have the chance to rotate through three classic CK games:
Lightning, Ninja, and Got it! But to start, the Senior campers were
counted off into three random groups in the true camp spirit of meeting
new people! |

First up was Lightning! To
start, two even lines are formed ... |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_099_small.jpg) |
and players hold hands. |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_086_small.jpg) |
Every player closes their eyes
except the player on the end. |
|
Next, a key card is flipped and
if it is heads up, the first person in line squeezes the next person's
hand. The pulse is then sent down the entire line |

|
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_077_small.jpg) |
When the "squeeze" reaches the
end of the line, the last person reaches down and picks up a set of
keys. |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_080_small.jpg) |
Whichever player picks up the
keys first moves to the front of the line. the first team to get through
their entire line wins! |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_081_small.jpg) |
The next game was Got It! |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_091_small.jpg) |
Each player must hit the beach
ball up once and then move out of the group. |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_092_small.jpg) |
The object of the game is for
each member of the team to successfully hit the ball without it hitting
the ground! |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_108_small.jpg) |
The last event is the fairly
new but very popular Ninja. |
|
Players start bowing to each
other ... |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_093_small.jpg) |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_098_small.jpg) |
![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_097_small.jpg) |
and striking their best
ninja pose. |
Play then continues in a circle
as each person has one move to hit another player's hand. |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_094_small.jpg) |
If your hand is hit, you're
out! |

![](../images/journals/lindsey/Throwback_Games/Campus_Kids_NJ_2011-07-26_Lindsey_088_small.jpg) |
Although the games were very
simple, everyone had a great time working together and making lots of
friends! |
