Detailed Procedure:

00:00-10:00 The main group leader is going to explain what a mixer is to the large group. They will explain how when everyone went into the room they got a different person on their back. With the person they got, they have to ask around people yes or no questions only to try to figure out the person on their back. Once they figure out the person on their back they then have to find other people with the same person and form groups with them. Once they all form their groups a group leader will come over to them and start the next part of the mixer.

10:00-12:00 Break into groups

12:00-17:00 Name games! First just do something simple like say your name and what color underwear your wearing, if you could pimp your ride what would you do, your favortie thing to eat during Passover, your favorite type of computer screen, or anything else you can think of! Then do a good name game. Go around the circle and have everyone say their name and an adjective that uses the same letter as the start of their name. EX: My name is Rachel. And I'm rocking, so I'm rockin rachel. Then the next person has to say the person's name before them and then say their own name and so on and so forth, until everyone knows everyones names.

17:00-18:00 Explain the mixer. The next mixer that you are doing with your group is two truths and a lie. Everyone goes around and says two true things and then says one lie. Everyone has to guess which one is the lie, and whoever gets it right gets to go and so on.

18:00-35:00 Have fun with the mixer! When your entire group goes have you group make a human knot and try to get out. If your done with that then make a pyrmid and have one of the group leaders judge it.

35:00-55:00 Now someone will go on the microphone (or yell) and say the next mixer. The next mixer is making up team cheers for and with your team. Make sure to tell your team that they are a team and they are going to be a team for the entire weekend. Make up some great cheers! Which ever's teams cheer is the best will get to sing it for all to hear.

55:00-90:00 Now create your team flag. You can do whatever you want and give your team a name. Rememeber these are the groups for the whole weekend.
