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

Wow, these are all great ideas. How will we ever decide?
I should have mentioned that this meet is scheduled for the weekend before Thanksgiving. One of the races should probably have a turkey theme.
Hmmm... No, it's probably not a good idea to make the swimmers transport frozen turkeys the length of the pool.
