The youth group version of the game Werewolves of Bleak Forest (static) and Among us / Mafia (mobile).

Disguises are the easiest way to immerse yourself in another world for a while in your imagination. And with very little effort!

Together with the Teamweekend participants, we collect ideas for the realization of the starlizacks. The aim is to create material that can then be placed on the YoungstarsWiki.

We are building a hot tub with a circulating pump and wood fire, we want to show how you can build something cool with simple means and enjoy a relaxing evening in the pool far away from civilization. There is also a cozy corner with sofas, a fireplace and a barbecue.

Who is who? What happened where? Who said what? Test your Bible knowledge and find out what you already know and where you still have gaps. How can you incorporate Bible knowledge into your program? What about participants who don't know anything?

Eating cheese slices can function as a kind of team building activity. We eat cheese slices after the Jungschi afternoon, for example. On the one hand, we use this as a source of nourishment, but also to strengthen the leadership team.

You take an uncoated, empty tin, bend a small grill rack, make two holes in the tin to hang a wire loop, place a mini pizza on the rack, push the rack into the tin and place the tin in the fire. And the pizza is ready to bake.

Preparation of Pulled Pork

  • Working time approx. 45 minutes
  • Resting time approx. 45 minutes
  • Cooking/baking time approx. 3 hours
  • Total time approx. 4 hours 30 minutes

Remove excess fat from the pork neck and rub with the mustard on all sides. Mix the paprika powder, salt, pepper, cumin powder, thyme and rosemary to make a spice mixture (rub) and rub the neck of pork generously with it. Leave the meat to marinate in the fridge for 12 - 24 hours.

The next day, cut the apple into pieces and the onions into half rings.

Heat the Briquettes for the Dutch Oven. I use 6 at the bottom and 14 at the top for my 11 litre pot. Place 6 Briquettes under the pot and sauté the onions in oil. Then add the apple and sauté. Add the Worcester sauce and tomato paste and fry briefly. 

Deglaze with the stock and put the pork neck on top. Put the lid on and load it with the remaining coals. If you have one, you can also fit the pork neck with a thermometer. After approx. 1.5 hours, you can add a few more Briquettes (unless you have specially long-lasting Briquettes).

After approx. 2.5 - 3 hours, the roast is done, the core temperature should be approx. 90-95 °C. Take it out and let it rest for 30 - 45 minutes wrapped in aluminium foil. Afterwards, the roast can be pulled and served according to taste. 

Either enjoy in a roll with green and coleslaw and 1 - 2 tbsp. of the onion-apple sauce or put it back in the pot and mix it with the onion-apple sauce - a real treat. Serve with a good piece of baguette.

Whether in the Sola, on a normal Jungschar afternoon or on a team outing, a cosy fire should almost never be missing. But which leader does not know it, that he quickly reaches for kindling cubes due to lack of knowledge or lack of time and inwardly knows: "I have sinned against the Jungschar law!" :)

Well this booklet can't give you extra time making a fire, but it can give you tips and tricks on how to make a fire survival style.

These topics are covered:
- What are the regulations/laws of fire making?
- Different natural tinder (tinder sponge/birch bark etc.)
- Different spark generators (ignition steel, fire drill etc.)
- Fire forms (pyramid, layered fire)
- Fire drilling
- Different dishes for over the fire

The booklet is very good for personal use, for leaders but also for children.
Have fun reading through it and then maybe making a fire.
