Here is overview of the day.
Volunteers arrived at 8am participants arrived at 10am. The volunteers lined up in two lines about 6 feet across from one another. The participants ran between these lines where they were meet by a youth volunteer at the end of the line that buddied up w/ them.

A few of the games there were giant basketball, baseball, bowling, basketball hoop shot, bubbles, dancing, horse shoes, face painting, 50 yard dash... They could stay as little or as long as they wanted at each event.
