Summer Camp Wednesday [The Docks], Wednesday, May 16, 2018, mid-morning
Anakin stood on the edge of the docks, a dozen rowboats bobbing the water around him. The clouds above were looking threatening (and kind of...not gray, which was odd), but so far the day had been dry. There was a set of bleachers (with canopies above them) set up for any spectators to cheer from, and the ambitious vendors from Mooby's were selling burgers and fries.
"Welcome to our first day of summer camp activities," Anakin yelled through the megaphone he'd acquired from...somewhere. "Our first community building activity will be a teachers versus students rowing race from here to the Isle of Ikea. The winning team receives a Big Mouth Billy Bass because I don't want it in my house any more, and all the Swedish meatballs they can eat. The losers get sore arms and the pleasure of not owning a singing fish award. In the event of a rowboat flipping, our PE instructor Steve Rogers will be out on a jet ski for rescue missions."
He looked at all the contestants. "I'll know if you're capsizing on purpose. Also, he's not that good looking. Contestants, please put on your life preservers while I call out the teams. For the students: Sabine and Beaker, Astrid and Jason, Rufus and Aloy, Theron and Tip, Norman and Khadgar, Peebee and Bobby, and Jaylah and Peridot. For the teachers: Amaya and Tony, Kanan and Magnus, Reno and Jenkins, Cara and Deadpool, and Liam and Zoe. Racers, man--or woman, or other--your ships."
Once everyone was in place, Anakin raised his hand. "On your marks, get set...go!"
...And that was when it started pouring rainbow colored-rain.

Re: Get Ready to Race!
"If you want the back, then I'll get in first," Norman replied, giving him a little smile. "It doesn't matter to me where we're sitting. I'm just kind of looking forward to getting this done and maybe not looking stupid in the process."
By some miracle, they'd actually manage that!

He smiled and waited a moment, and then they were given the signal to start rowing.
