Rock, Paper, Scissors Funds the Cure

A fun, active, and engaging way to support pediatric cancer research!

What Is It?

We’re putting a fitness twist on the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors game! Instead of using hand symbols, participants perform exercise moves:

  • Rock = Squat
  • Paper = Plank
  • Scissors = Jumping Jack

Play, move, and raise funds to support our mission while having fun with friends, classmates, or teammates!

How to Play

  1. Join the Game – Pay $5 to enter.
  2. Find a Partner – Pair up with another player to start the game.
  3. Play a Round – Compete in a round of Rock, Paper, Scissors:
    • On the count of three, each player does their chosen move (squat, plank, or jumping jack).
    • Follow traditional Rock, Paper, Scissors rules:
      • Rock (squat) beats scissors (jumping jack)
      • Scissors (jumping jack) beats paper (plank)
      • Paper (plank) beats rock (squat)
  4. Loser Is Out – The winner moves on to challenge another player. The game continues until only two players remain for the final round.
  5. Final Showdown – The last two players face off to determine the champion!
Three people are celebrating indoors, possibly participating in a game or event.

Why Participate?

  • Get Active – A fun way to move and stay fit.
  • Support Pediatric Cancer Research – Every dollar raised helps fund vital research.
  • Compete and Have Fun – Challenge your friends and see who can outlast the competition!
