St Johns Wood Scouts

I organised a games night,
Between crews from far and wide,
We met Stafford and Tandara,
And even some Girl Guides.

First we played the Human Knot,
A game to break the ice,
With twenty-four tangled people,
It wasn’t very nice.

Then eagerly holding hands,
We stood in two straight lines,
For we raced two hula hoops,
I lost twice, now I resign.

Then we all sat down,
To play the game Taboo,
Trying to guess some words,
From people’s clever clues.

Just before the drinks break,
We played another game,
Of nostalgic Tunnel Ball,
But please, improve your aim!

Despite the games I organised,
There’s only one they came to see,
A hot and sweaty game,
Of Ultimate Frisbee.

There’s a trophy for the winner,
Right now they’re on cloud nine,
I hope to see you all again,
But you better watch out next time!

A big thankyou to Alex, Boo, Petah, Rachael, Timothy and Tracey from Tandara Rovers; Peter from Stafford Rovers; Bel, Cat and Natasha from Everton Park Ranger Guides; Kathryn from the Olave Program; and the St. John’s Wood Rovers for making the night a success. Congratulations to the winner, Petah.
