Game 3 – A Couple Rounds of Capture the Flag – Coupon Style – Q’ed by Robinhood

Each Team Lines up as a bucket brigade.  With a pile of coupons (wonderful concrete blocks), the team must move all the coupons to the opposite end of the line.  Once the team has transferred all the coupons, the team must regroup on the opposite side where the other team was located and return ALL the coupons to the center.  Let’s just say some strategic hijinks ensued.

To organize the Black Ops took quite a bit of planning.  Great work by Robinhood and Triple Threat with guidance from our AO Q Haggis.  We made it a point to get the word out with catchy things on band (in line with what the Trinity brought for the 1st Black Ops), and debated about several locations.  We also took time to visit and Q all the AOs (at that time, we have added several more AOs since), which was a great experience!  Thank you PAX for being involved and looking forward to what the Yard Boys will bring next…
