YHC arrived at Bombsquad AO at 0512 and headed directly to the big parking lot to set up 7 Stations of COWBELL MADNESS. Step 1 was dropping of small coupons (bricks from home) at Station 5; step 2 was setting up the world-famous DJ equipment at the designated Home Base strategically located between Station 7 and Station 1; step 3 was driving to the coupon pile to retrieve coupons for stations 1 and 2 and finally step 4 was labeling the stations with clear, concise markers detailing the exercise to be done at each station. At this point YHC thought, “so this is how it feels to be Quaker”.
Pull around to the imaginary shovel flag. Hmmm… where is our AOQ? Anyway, Quaker and Sade were the only PAX to show so far so YHC joined them for some vacation chatter and as time got closer 4 more PAX wandered in just in time for the 1-minute warning. Quaker remarked about no tunes but YHC assured him that there was no need to worry.
At 0530 the proper disclaimer was shared and the beatdown went like this:
25 SSH IC
¼ turn to the right
25 SSH IC
¼ turn to the right
25 SSH IC
¼ turn to the right
25 SSH IC

Mosey’d as a group through the backstop and ended up at Home Base with Mountain’s, Mississippi Queen blaring out of the world-famous DJ equipment that was perfectly situated on YHC’s tray table for maximum sound quality.
