Before the meeting:
- Confirm each Cub Scout who will be completing this Adventure has a bike and helmet.
- Find a location that has enough room for Cub Scouts to practice riding safely. Parks and school playgrounds are great places to meet. Avoid parking lots.
- Communicate location to parents or legal guardians.
- Gather copies of the Scouting America Annual Health and Medical Record on each participant (youth and adult)
- Review Annual Health and Medical Records for any restrictions that may impact participation
During the meeting:
- Bring copies of the Scouting America Annual Health and Medical Record on each participant (youth and adult)
- Define the starting line and the finishing line.
- Tell Cub Scouts when you say, “Green Light,” they will start riding their bikes toward the finish line. When you say, “Red Light,” they will stop their bikes. If they are still moving after you call “Red Light,” they must go back to the starting line.
- Ask the Cub Scouts to stand behind the starting line, put on their helmets properly, and mount their bikes. Make sure there is plenty of space between each rider.
- Say “Green Light” to start the game.
- Start a new round when everyone gets across the finish line or when most players make it across the finish line.
Tip: If Cub Scouts cannot yet ride without training wheels, that’s okay!
