Who wants to play some Boda Borg?

Excitement, team work, and cheers! Who doesnt enjoy that? Every girl and most staff members gave a go at one of the activities Lough Key activity park had to offer: The Boda Borg. A unique challenge that originated in Sweden. It is a gym size room seperated with 47 different rooms and 15 quests. Rooms are labelled with a name and a colour. A green door meant the puzzles inside were mental. A red door meant the puzzles inside were physical and mental. A black door meant that the puzzles inside were physical and a bit tougher to complete. In teams of 3-5 people the girls took on one room of their choice at a time. The fun part: you never knew what you were going to walk into. Once the door closed you have 2 minutes to complete the challenge with no instructions. If a green light showed above the door, girls were able to move through the door leading to the next challenge. When you reached the end of the quest without any mistakes, you get to stamp your card to say its done. However, if you do something wrong, you must leave and start at the beginning of the quest again. So how many people have actually accomplished the whole Boda Borg? When we arrived we were told that only 23 teams have completed the entire thing. After camp 101, I believe the number has gone up to at least 26, maybe more. Our Canadian group attempted the Boda Borg, the day we arrived. We did well for a first try , but a lack of sleep due to jet lag did not help by any means. My team had fun doing the farm, when you had to warm up the chicken eggs As well, as crawling under lasers. The best, the Ropes quest! We never figured it out! Trying to lay on the ropes while climbing through them did not work out very well. The girls had a blast completing these challenges and quests. Everytime I asked a Guide this was one of their favourite activities.
