Instructions:
Patrols line up at a starting line about 10 feet or so from the strings of marshmallows.
On 'Go' signal, first scout in each patrol runs to their string, eats one marshmallow with hands clasped behind back, then tags next in line.
Repeat for a set time length or until one patrol has eaten all their marshmallows.
Each eaten marshmallow is worth 5 points. Any touching marshmallows with hands takes away 3 points. Any dropped pieces on the ground take away 3 points, unless they are eaten.
