Posted by admin on February 25th, 2010 and filed under neighborhood pizza | 4 Comments »

Hey … my party: guy and gals, 35 or more people, almost all highschool …. There will be pizza, swimming in the neighborhood pool, movies and popcorn, and Capture the Flag .. oh, it’s in July …. so, just a come and go as you please, come no earlier than 11, stay no later than 5 … any other ideas? Just random games, kind of like Capture the Flag …. I don’t really want to have to buy alot of supplies or stuff ….. help?
Love the ice cream bar idea, definitely happening. Mmmhmmmm. thanks!! Keep answering! ;-) Everything is appreciated. Except for the first answer. And what is ‘man hunt’?
Mmmhmmm. Twister!!! :-)

I think, most likely, that everyone will spend a lot of the time outside, but I want to have stuff for people to do, either part of the time, or for some people who want to take a break from being crazy outside and do something in the cool inside AC ….. so yeah….

Good music, plenty of food, sometimes a way to make your own food – like a ‘make your own Sundae bar – where you have a variety of ingredients and ice cream and let people mix up their own creations in small dishes.

Don’t forget about indoor incase of bad weather – your activities sound mostly outdoor and active which is good. What will you have as a backup in case it rains? A party video game like Dance Dance Revolution, or indoor games and activities like Pictionary or word games?

Sounds like you have food pretty well covered, and activities – usually just add music and people will make their own fun. You can also have quieter areas where people can just chill and hang out when they are tired of running and activity things.

There is a great book called ‘Junkyard sports’ that teaches you how to make your own games out of sutff you have lying around – that’s another idea.

Since you’re planning ahead, I think people will have a great time!

Best of luck!

    Having a theme always helps..example Zey’s Summer Bash Invitation could look like flip flops (card stock paper cut out like flip flops with ribbon as V) Pizza, swimming and movie. That seems good for 5 hours. Only have games for back up. Games can be a pain…You want to have fun as a host too!!
