VIATEC Geek Olympics! (4pm start)
I know what you’ve been waiting for and we are finally ready to announce the actual activities and events we have planned for the Summer Tech Together (and 1st annual Geek Olympics)!
- 1-on-1 Basketball: Arcade-style free throws. Fast-paced, head-to-head action. Timed with a scoreboard to keep you on your toes!
- Human Hungry Hippos: You ARE the hippo in this life-sized version of the classic game. How many points can you score? 🦛
- Mega Obstacle Course: Think American Ninja Warrior, but safe…and inflatable! Over 100 feet of challenges to test your agility and courage.
- Bumper Balls Sports Arena: Imagine soccer but in a 3-foot inflatable orb and playing with a 6-foot ball. It’s ridiculous, it’s fun, and you’ll be talking about it for weeks.
- Nerf Target Game: Carnival vibes with a modern twist. Battle head to head. Take aim and hit the targets for points. Easy, right? We’ll see about that.
- Mini Golf: You know the drill on this one.
- Gelblasters Timed Skill Course: Similar to paintball but less intense. Ever watch Keanu Reeves train for a John Wick movie? Well, you’re Keanu and we have 20 targets for you to hit as fast as you can!
- VR Archery: Plug in to a whole other world and test your archery skills against your colleagues and friends!
Don't have a team? No problem! Sign up here as an independent, and we’ll pair you with other lone wolves to form a team of tech champions. 🏆
