What to Expect . . . .
 
23 stations around the baseball field.
Two 5th grade helpers will run each station.
Each class will be split into 3 teams: Yellow, Blue, and Red.
Each station will have a spray paint starting line: Yellow, Blue, Red.
Each station will have a matching-colored cone to go around.
Stations will have a brief description to explain what to do with the equipment.
Every 4 minutes, we will stop the music and blow an air horn. 
At that time, whoever has the equipment will return it back to the starting line, and every class will rotate one station to the right.
