Crows and Cranes

Skill Level: Basic
Skills Learned: Sideward displacement
Precautions: Paddle on opposite sides; beware of finger jams
Equipment: Canoes, paddles, PFD's

Game: Canoes line up side by side. Half the canoes are "crows" and the other half are "cranes". When the leader calls either "crows" or "cranes", that group displaces their canoes sideways (using draws and prys) to try and catch the other group that are trying to get away from them, also using sidewards displacement. The leader can call the other group's name at any time to reverse direction.
