Alyssa Paone, center, is on the move as she avoids the “guards” in a competitive game of Steal the Cone. In the game, opposite teams attempt to steal the cone that is guarded by members of the opposing team.
Summer campers advance toward the finish line as they participate in a game of Red Light-Green Light. The object of the game is to go toward the finish line when the green light is called and must stop moving when the red light is called. Players who do not obey the signals must return to the starting line.
