(The trick to make the whipped cream last a long time: beat 1c Cream until soft peaks form, then add 1/4c. Sour Cream, and finish beating. I popped the cake in the fridge for 1-1.5 hours before serving, and it looked great....They say it would last/look good even longer if you popped the cake in the freezer for 30m to 1h (to set it)....)

     2) Marshmallow Race
     3) Fill the Bottle (a water toting relay race)
     4) Corn Hole
