My 11 year old has enjoyed this time and time again, so any tween or teen should try it out. Volunteers explain how to play the game if you don't already know. Just grab a stick and shuffle. There's always a band and beverages which makes for a fun environment. I think it made my daughter feel "grown up" because it was later at night.

The weekend trip continued with more fun with arts & crafts. What camping ...
