Team Leadership Project - River Crossing


Your B-52 has crashed in the jungle and you and your team are trying to make it back to base. As you are walking along, you come to a river full of crocodiles and piranhas. You must cross this river in order to get back to base. Luckily for you, you have found three pieces of wood that miraculously float on top of the water and can support lots of weight. However, a human body part must be on these boards at all times while they are in the water, or they will drift away. Also, if someone’s foot touches the water, then they are pulled into the water by crocodiles and are dead. Your goal is to get all personnel AND materials across the river in 15 minutes before the enemy arrives.

MATERIALS NEEDED

  1. 3 boards of various legnths
  2. a designated starting and ending point
