| Required: | 2 - 8foot 2x4 boards. 14 - 4foot lengths of 3/4 inch rope 1 inch and 1.5 inch drill bits electric drill |
| Preparation: | Using the 1.5 inch bit, every foot on each board, sink a 1.5 inch hole halfway through the wide side of the board. Using the 1 inch bit, drill each hole the rest of the way through the board. Thread a rope through each hole, tying a knot on each end. |
| Notes: | Good exercise for developing team cooperation. Reflect on who gave directions, how did scouts work together, what was the success level, how we could improve. |
| Place the trolleys on the ground, side by side. Each scout in a patrol stands with one foot on each board and holds onto a rope on each board. As a team, the group walks by lifting a foot and pulling that rope up at the same time. If there are fewer than 7 on a patrol, tie up the extra ropes. If there are more than 7, some will not have ropes to hang onto. | |
