| 10 May 05:35 | 10 | Game : Ship's Captain |
The captain calls out orders to the rest of the players who are the crew. If a Cub does not follow an order correctly, then they are out. This decision is made by the Captain who is always right! The game is played until only one Cub is left. Some command ideas: Port - run to the right side of the boat Starboard - run to the left of the boat Bow - run to the front of the boat Stern - run to the back of the boat Hit the deck - lay down on your stomach Attention on deck - salute and yell “Aye Aye Captain”. Cubs must not move until the next command is given. Sick turtle - everyone lies on their backs with their feet and hands in the air Shark - everyone must run to a designated area and shout out SHARK! The last one there is out. Three men in a boat - the crew must form groups of three and sing "row, row the boat" |

| 10 May 05:45 | 10 | Game : Save the Drowning Cub |
Required: 7/8 meter rope per Six Notes: Practice throwing rescues for water safety. Instructions: Teams line up single file at a starting line. One Cub from each team sits down facing his team about 7/8 meters in front of the line.
First Cub in each team has a rope. Each Cub makes one throw with the rope trying to reach the drowning Cub. The sitting Cub tries to reach the rope being thrown without moving from his spot. He can lean and reach, but can not stand up Each Cub throws the rope once and then goes to the end of the line. Teams score one point whenever the drowning Cub can reach the rope thrown to him and the rescuing Cub does not lose the rope. The team with the most points when all members have thrown is the winner. |
