Survivor - Lincoln Edition Summer 2010

Last night marked the FIRST semi-annual Survivor - Lincoln Edition! 27 contestants were in attendance spread out over their four teams.

First Challenge: Tribal Branding 

Team members were instructed to "brand" their tribes. They had to design a tribe flag, create a chant, and decorate themselves with colored paints and bandanas. The most creative/original team would win that challenge. Team Star City Adventure Boot Camps won! Check out the flags below:

Second Challenge: Sand Bag Relay Race Sponsored by Lincoln Running Company (Thanks Ann!)

There were FIVE legs of this relay race. Tribal members were instructed to carry and a 25 pound sand bag weight and their flag and run it to the next leg of the race - and pass it off to the next tribal member. It was a CLOSE race... with Jeff and Ivy neck to neck! Ivy took a spill (ouch!) and Jeff took first, giving Team Capital City Boot Camps the win for this challenge.

Here they are at the start of the race:

Since Team Capital City Boot Camp won this challenge, they all received a nice glass from Lincoln Running Company, and Jeff won a $50 gift certificate!

Third Challenge: Artic Plunge (Sponsored by High Profile Nail and Hair Salon)

Tribal members were presented with large tubs of ice water with clear marbles at the bottom. Each tribal member had thirty seconds to get AS MANY marbles out of the tub WITH THEIR TOES and drop them in a bucket. The use of hands was prohibited. The tribe that got the most marbles out of the bucket won. Tribe Body OverHALL won with 78 marbles!

Here are all the teams lined up and ready to go!

Sara B. won a gift certificate for a wonderfully relaxing pedicure with the talented Chellie. Thanks Chellie!

Fourth Challenge: Memory Mania

Tribal members were presented with 68 blocks. There were 17 color coded blocks that corresponded with the tribal's unique colors. Those 17 blocks each had a letter, that together spelled, "Wealth for my Health". The first tribal member had to find the "W" that was their color. Once they found it, the next tribal member searched for "E" in their tribal's color. This continued until the tribe found all the color coded blocks, spelling out Wealth for my Health. It was a close call, but Team Capital City Boot Camps won this challenge!

 

Searching for the right letter...

Final Challenge: "Give a Tribe a Bone"

Tribal members were presented with 6 dog bones. Tribal members had to take a dog bone from Point A to Point B - but could not use their hands. They had to pick up, carry, and drop the dog bone with their mouth. The tribe to move all 6 bones to Point B won the challenge. Team Capital City Boot Camps was the quickest - giving them the win for this challenge, and the overall challenge!

Survivor-Lincoln Edition Summer 2010

The "prize" for the winning tribe was immunity for one tribal member. Each Capital City Boot Camp tribal member was instructed to vote for a tribal member to receive immunity at the next elimination (July 12th) therefore securing that member a spot in the Final 3. The overwhelming majority chose:

Congratulations to Erin for your spot in the Final 3, and your chance to win $1500!
