As part or our 10th Seafront Sunday we are inviting you to join in our Animal Olympic Obstacle course, with a chance to win two return tickets to Alderney; courtesy of Aurigny Airlines (for the adults) and two Outdoor Guernsey vouchers (for any children aged 12 and under). 

So how do you take part?

Meet our team at the Crown Pier arena at 1.30pm, pop a small donation in our charity bucket and choose which animal costume to wear during your attempt to BEE the best around our fun course.

Activities will include:

  • Skip rope
  • Slalom BEAR crawl
  • Hula hooping
  • Bean bag balance
  • FROG hop race
  • Ball dribbling
  • Ending in a penalty shoot out

Time penalties will be given for any CHEETAHS, knocking over jumps, FOUL play, dropping the bean bag, or ill-EAGLE  tripping of your opponent.

Your lap will be timed and added to the leader board.

You can take part as many times as you like, but please pop a small donation in the bucket per attempt.
