Fun relay ideas?

I am planning a meet and I would like to include a couple of "fun" relays. I need some ideas. Minnesota Masters Swimming does a "Reindeer Relays" meet each December and I found descriptions of a few of their races (see below). Does anyone else have some suggestions for fun relays? (Note that this meet will be held in a public high school, so the relays cannot include alcohol...) --Tarzan relay - each swimmer must swim with his head out of the water --Ballet leg relay - each swimmer must do backstroke with 1 leg out of the water, pointed in the air --Reindeer relay - each swimmer dog paddles while wearing antlers (which are passed like a baton from one swimmer to the next) --All-Fly relay --Kicking relay

  • 1) 200 Under/Over relay (each person swims the first length underwater) 2) 8x25 kick relay (with a twist, each swimmer takes the kickboard from the previous swimmer and has to use it for their length; so the last swimmer kicks with 8 kickboards) 3) 50 Siamese Relay (must maintain physical contact - it is up to the two swimmers how best to do it) 4) 200 Golf Ball relay (each swimmer swims with two golfballs and they have to hand them off to the next swimmer)
