When they are asked to start, they will need to grab three blankets and fold them NICELY, check with the leadership member who is standing there, and then run to person 2 and give them the blankets. Person 2 must grab the blankets and then get in the wagon. Person 3 will then pull the wagon to Person 4. Person 4 will then grab the blankets and run through the

obstacle course (aka the cones) to person 5. If you skip a cone or knock one over, then you will be asked to restart at the Person 4 station, so be careful! Person 5 must then grab the blankets from Person 4 and sprint to the finish line!
