It begins with a Service Patrol arriving early to prepare the meeting room, to highlight the importance of preparation. This is followed by the Pledge of Allegiance to start the meeting. The Scouts then do a fun activity to kick off the meeting, followed by different rope activities, which have been dictated as the learning theme for that month. The Patrols then leave the room and compete to see who can build their part of a wooden tower the fastest.
