The first being to make a boat out of cardboard and tape. Members were joined by other people and put into 3 teams and given 45 minutes to make their boat. Along the way there were challenges for the team to complete in order to get some cling film rap and more tape which included singing nursery rhymes and performing a dance!
Once each team has made their boat , the race began!
Tom Harwood our chairman was paddling one boat and Max the other against 1 more boat. Whilst Tom sunk almost immediately , Max went on to winning the competition!!
Afterwards members took part in the paddle board competition. With 6 members in a team (3 Young Farmer teams and 1 other team) Silsoe were joined by members from Leighton Buzzard Yf and Biggleswade too.
The battle for first place was between the girls team and a group of Silsoe boys. Members had to dice through hoops on their travels , go under and over ropes and fall off and get themselves back on again, it was a tight finish but the boys won!
The last challenge of the day was to see how many people we could get on a paddle board and with the help others we manage a record of 17!!
