Exactly. Each of our patrols would plan their entire menu for the group, designate shoppers, and take care of all the cooking for themselves. My dad's job was basically to ride chaperone, plan the overriding activity (often with help from the SPL's), and then eat with whatever patrol he thought had the best food.
