It started it out on the water in canoes. Our group was divided into two people per canoe. After Jane Anne and Sarah flipped their canoe, we decided it was better for each student to be in a canoe with an adult. I was partnered with Chester, Jane Anne with Chris, Sarah with Mr. Crowe, Mary with Juan, and Catherine with Mr. Corzine. Figs from nearby fig trees were falling into the water around our canoes. We started throwing figs at other canoes, and a full on war broke out. Chester and I were against Jane Anne and Chris and Mary and Juan. There were some people who decided to call a truce, to not go to war--of course they were the teachers' canoes. The war went on for awhile until we came close to the shore, where we cleaned up fig fragments from our boats. We decided to call a peace treaty and went to play fig baseball. You will probably see the fig baseball game on ESPN, so I will not go into it here.
