Camp Woody Pine
Close Encounters of the Woody Kind
unzip the truth21 years after the incident, the mystery returns.
// witness registration // mandatory //
At 22:47 hours on 24 JUL 2005, a luminous unidentified craft was observed at low altitude over the wooded site locally known as "Camp Woody Pine." 9 teenage boys and 1 linebacking monkey witnessed something they shouldn't have. The Platform Tester reported seeing while the Cook said the next morning's eggs were spoiled by a sustained cyan-spectrum beam descending from the craft's underside, accompanied by figures.
The Co-Founders argue about what happened in the minutes after, while others report a nude blonde male figure being thrown into a swimming pool. Standard memory-suppression protocols were applied to all parties. Subjects were released to civilian life under the cover designation of "a routine summer campout."
Twenty-one years later, the group reunites at a site known as "Castle Wolfenstein." Per Directive 7-A, the surviving witness pool is to be reassembled at these coordinates for scheduled declassification.

▸ THE INCIDENT — THE WOODIES: FEATS OF STRENGTH
The main event. Teams of two. Five stations of questionable athletic merit. One trophy. Below is the full protocol — what it is, when it happens, how you score, and what you're in for.
3:00 PM
@ Castle Wolfenstein
5 stations
no max
Scoring is on the honor system and kept in check by the competitors. Each station has a score sheet used live while competition is taking place. Before a station swap — after each competitor has gone — the scorekeeper records the scores from that station, and then we rotate.
STRATEGY NOTE: point values are tuned so a strong showing at any station is worth about the same as any other. No single game decides the whole thing, so dominating your best event covers for the one you choke on. Crush mudball, redeem yourself. Can't saw worth a damn, make it up on tires. Everybody's good at something. Allegedly.

🔥 The Gauntlet of Grit 🔥
THE AMBUSH: during Beam Balance and Bucket Carry, a rival team of your choosing opens fire with water balloons full of diluted vinegar. Every balloon that pops on you or your partner earns the rival team points — 25 for a Skeet Ball launcher hit, 10 for a hand-thrown hit. Unpopped balloons don't count. Keep your balance. Keep your dignity. You will keep neither.
🎯 = ambush zone. You're a wet, vinegary target here.
