Instructions:
Mark start line.
Each patrol lines up at their start line.
On 'GO' signal, first scout in line takes one spaghetti noodle out of box, passes the box to next scout, and lays noodle down touching the start line. The scout then tags the next scout in line and goes to the back of the line.
Repeat for each scout.
As the line of noodles gets longer, the scout has to run out farther.
It is a good idea to have an impartial judge for each patrol to accept the placement of noodles - each noodle should touch the one before it.
When time is called, judges measure the spaghetti stretches to determine the winner.
