Instructions:
Each patrol chooses one scout to be Paul Revere, the rest are his horses.
Each patrol lines up at their starting line with a turning point cone about 10 or 15 feet away for each patrol.
On 'GO' signal, Paul Revere mounts the first horse piggy-back style. The horse carries him around the cone and back. Paul must then transfer to his next horse without touching the ground and with no other help except from his current and next horse.
If he touches the ground, have Paul do some stunt. A stunt would cause a time delay and be fun - say the Pledge of Allegiance, give a wolf yell 3 times, check his horse's shoes for dirt, ...
Could give points for speed, horse acting, and Paul Revere acting if desired.
