The tradition of Senior Assassin is one of the most highly anticipated events for high school seniors around the country. It's a thrilling game that fosters camaraderie, sharpens strategic thinking, and home to countless memories for those participating. However, the recent ban on Orbeez guns has cast a shadow on this beloved tradition.

Orbeez guns, which shoot harmless water-filled gel beads, offer a safe and fun alternative for the game. Unlike other potential tools, Orbeez guns are non-lethal, easy to clean up, and do not inflict pain or damage. They are also widely available and affordable, making them accessible for all students.

Disallowing Orbeez guns takes away an essential aspect of what makes Senior Assassin a unique and memorable experience. It limits the creativity and enjoyment of the participants, who look forward to this event throughout their high school journey. It's an activity that marks an essential part of the transition into adulthood, offering a chance to bond before embarking on new life chapters.

Statistics show that safety incidents involving Orbeez guns are exceptionally rare. In instances where bans are placed, students often resort to less safe or less fun alternatives, compromising the spirit of the game. There is little evidence to justify the exclusion of Orbeez guns from the event, and doing so only diminishes the experience without delivering any significant safety benefits.

Therefore, I am urging school boards and event coordinators to reconsider the limitations on Orbeez guns within the Senior Assassin game. By allowing these harmless devices, we can ensure students enjoy a safe, inclusive, and exciting experience reminiscent of those many have cherished before.

Please sign this petition to bring Orbeez guns back into the Senior Assassin event. Let's keep the tradition alive and safe, ensuring that future seniors have the same opportunities to create lasting memories during their final school year.
