Brookfield Ballads

Write a Venture-themed limerick inspired by Brookfield, camp life, or your experiences so far. Keep it fun, clever, and (mostly) appropriate. Bonus points will be awarded to the Host Team’s favourite entries.

Cover Stars

Recreate a famous album cover using your team as the stars. Try to match the pose, composition, and vibe as closely as possible – or put a clever spin on it. Submit the final photo and let us see how iconic you can be.

Do a Good Deed

Make a positive difference in our community, whether that’s Brookfield, Wellington, or beyond.

Choose something that genuinely helps others or improves the environment, and aim for an impact that lasts beyond today.

When you’re done, show us what you achieved so we can celebrate it together!

Emoji Decoder

On the submission form, you’ll find a series of emoji puzzles.

Crack them all to earn extra points for your team. Every emoji combo represents a word or phrase linked to Venture or Scouting.

Think you can figure them all out?

Each emoji represents a letter. Take the first letter of each emoji to spell out a word. Letters aren’t always represented by the same emoji.

How was Phase 1?

Take a few minutes to reflect on Phase 1. Complete the survey in the submission form and let us know what worked, what didn’t, and what you enjoyed most. Your feedback helps shape the adventure.

Scene Stealers

Lights, camera, action! Reenact a famous movie scene with your team. You can recreate it shot-for-shot or add your own creative twist. Submit a photo or short video. Extra points for recognisability, effort, and over-the-top acting.

Strava Artist

Bring out your inner artist and create a piece of art by recording your location as you walk around. Use Strava or a similar app to record and upload a screenshot of your activity. Search online for some inspiration.

Team Chant

Create a chant that represents your team’s spirit, name, and personality. It should be loud, memorable, and easy to perform together. Once perfected, record or perform it for the Host Team to earn points. Extra points for creativity, humour, and crowd-hype potential!

Team Mascot

Every great team needs a mascot. Find, make, or create something that represents your team – without spending any money.

Whether it’s crafted, found, or hilariously improvised, submit a photo of your mascot and explain how it represents your team.
