Set up a fly - before a rain storm

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

Give your cubs instructions on how to set up a fly, Break into sixes and provide each with a fly. Let them know they have 15 mins to set it up before you'll pour water over the fly to test it out. After 15mins the cubs can shealter under the fly as you pour a bocket over the top. We also set up hammocks under the flys - but that's optional.

Instructions

As per the description.

At our group, the cubs screamed with delight as the water was poured. Some became wet, so having a towel or wearing a raincoat might be handy.
