Name the game.


Camp Aušra (later Camp Kretinga), Wasaga Beach, Ontario, Canada, Summer 1959. Kadis, the husband of my Dad's twin sister Jonė, oversees another game at the Lithuanian summer camp that I can't identify. Thoughts?

Thanks to my Toronto Cousin for making this photo available to us.

Is that a basketball or a medicine ball?

I vaguely recall a ball passing game from my youth. Ball starts at the front of the line, and is passed from one person to the next. I am trying to remember if the person at the front of the line ran to the back of the line, making this something of a relay race, too.

I don't know, Peter. I am waiting to see if someone who was there will know.

I also remember a game of this sort from my childhood. But I didn't like games of this type, and that is why I probably forgot.
