depending on how many groups you have each group gets a letter, shape or colour and they have to make 5 pics featuring that thing...
that way you'll get the colours, shapes or letters you can use for a combining event

A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

Could extrapolate that into each group being given a short-ish word to make up from photographed 'letters'.
Here are some ideas that might work well for your bootcamp:
Photo Scavenger Hunt: Create a list of items or themes for participants to photograph. These can range from simple objects to more abstract concepts like 'joy' or 'movement'. This encourages creativity and exploration.
Portrait Challenge: Pair participants and have them take portraits of each other. This can include various styles such as candid, posed, or environmental portraits. Discuss aspects like lighting, angles, and composition.
Street Photography Session: If your location permits, have participants venture nearby to capture street scenes. This introduces them to capturing spontaneous moments, understanding framing, and the ethics of photographing strangers.
Architectural Photography: Focusing on buildings and structures, this project can teach participants about lines, symmetry, and perspective.
Reflection and Refraction Photography: Use mirrors, water, or glass to create interesting effects with reflection and refraction. This can result in unique and artistic images.Each of these projects encourages participants to explore different aspects of photography while keeping them engaged and creative within the limited time frame.
Wonderful ideas

Have them find interesting light.
Just like back in high school taking photography. You spend the first our teaching basic techniques of framing, subject selection, lighting etc... Then you send them out in the area you are at and have them all take 5-10 photos using the techniques you taught them to make ordinary objects into artistically interesting. A park, office complex etc... does not matter where (in high school we used to literally have to stay on the School grounds during class and go do this. Don't lock them in, given them freedom of expression just press to demonstrate technique in their images of what is around where they are at
