We have a PH Olympics every summer and have come up w/ some great game ideas...
We have had the Carmen Miranda Pass - You split up into two (or more) teams and have to pass a bucket full of fruit from one end of the line to the other w/out using your hands.
Flamingo races are fun - You use lawn flamingos and set up racing lanes. We use 6 birds and 3 dice. You number each bird, roll the dice and the birds move according to the dice. For example, if you roll a 3, a 2, and a 6 Bird#3, moves 1 space, Bird#2 moves 1 space, and Bird#6 moves 1 space. The bird that crosses the finish line 1st wins. You can even make this a betting game so that everyone buys their bird and the winner wins cash.
Bobbing for limes is a good time. Be sure the water is ICE cold though b/c the limes sink faster...
The biggest his though is always the Beer Run. Concept is trying to get to the bar through the lawn section at a Buffett show to get two cups of beer (use water though as lots will get spilled). You set up an obstacle course for the two teams to run through and it works like a relay. We always set up limbo sticks, inner tubes (like a football tire run drill), and have people on blankets throwing beach balls at the runners. The team that makes it back with the most beer wins the event. Everyone LOVEs this game!!
Hope these ideas help!! I'm actually planning this year's Olympic events now, so if I come up with any other ideas, I'll post them for you.
