Looking for new ideas on promoting our Mission & Mission Matters to relay events.
I have already checked out the Mission Library, but I'm looking for great ideas on getting the information out in a fresh new way.
I would like to see a new area just for Mission Activities/Ideas. It would be great if staff & volunteers could provide documents with guidlines and/or instructions for activities they use.
One that I have used in the past is the Road to Recovery Race. Each team has one person entered. They decorate a cardboard box with their team theme or a road to recovery theme. One hole is cut out for the head and two holes are cut out on either side for the arms. Each person will then carry an egg in a spoon around the track. The egg represents the cancer patient. First one that completes a lap around the track without dropping the egg wins team points and special prize.
A new idea I found in the Mission Library from Tioga County in Penn is the Mission Possible Points System. This looks like a lot of fun. I will change a few things that will fit in with our relay and introduce it at our Team Captain U in January and continue through the year.
Let's make 2009 the year of Mission in Relay. Get the word out to all Mission Staff and Volunteers and let's start sharing ideas and information!
Note: Having Mission Activities at your event will help out the Activites Chair as well!!!
