The patrol is divided into 2 teams: these are the brigades of workers building 2 bridges for a competition. Each brigade receives 10 strings, each approximately 30 to 50 centimetres long. The riverbanks are represented by 2 benches turned upside down. Building the bridge involves stretching a string (tied from short segments) between the two benches, securing it to the bench legs, arranging ropes by which one can “slide” from the high pillar to the ground, along with a safety loop. The team that: a) completes the bridge first, b) uses the most varied knots, and c) ties them without error, as well as d) engages all workers in the task—wins (fourfold scoring).
