Pack Meeting: February 24, 2009

This month we celebrate the birthday of the Cub Scouting program with our Blue and Gold Banquet. This month's theme, American ABC's was the theme for our party. We had a wonderful meal including ABC's in our soup.

The Wolf scouts put on an interesting skit which they proudly came up with themselves. Garrison Hauet received his wolf badge along with a gold and silver arrowhead and the language and culture belt loop. Brinton Gooch also received the language and culture belt loop.

The entire Bear den received their geography belt loop.

A special congratulations to Garrison on getting his Wolf badge and moving onto the Bear den.

Wolf Den Meeting: February 10, 2009

This week the boys worked on making a map of their neighborhood including a legend and compass rose. I'm sorry I couldn't be there this week due to my son's illness, however, I heard the scouts had a great time and I was able to see their wonderful maps.

Wolf Den Meeting: February 3, 2009

I was so happy for the great turn out that we had at den meeting this week. Brinton brought along his friend Cooper and we were excited to have Clint and Wyatt come.

This month we are celebrating the birthday of the cub scouts for our pack meeting, the annual Blue and Gold Banquet. The scouts made the invitations for their families for our pack meeting. Just to note, pack meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 24, 2009 at 6:30 p.m. Dinner will be provided.

This week we also finished the requirements for the Language and Culture belt loop by learning 10 words in another language and playing a game from a different culture. The scouts did such a great job at learning the new words. I was impressed at how many they already knew (mostly greetings). We also played the dreidel game, which the scouts seemed to really enjoy.

If any of the scouts would like to earn the Language and Culture belt loop but missed January's pack meeting or the den meeting on January 20th, they will need to play another game from a different culture or country and talk to someone who is from another country about what it is like living in that country. Please let me know if the scouts complete these requirements.
