Clarification: Cub Country

I apologize if there has been some confusion on the dates of Cub Country. Since the Wolf den meets with other wards, we do our den meeting calendars together. I failed to notice that the other Wolf den leader noted their Cub Country dates on all of the calendars.

Please note that the Cimarron Ward Cub Country dates are Friday and Saturday, June 18th and 19th. I will be getting out the Activity Consent and Health/Medical form to you to be completed before camp.

Also, the scouts from the other wards pay half of the Cub Country fee, $20.00, as noted on the joint calendar. I have checked and the Cimarron Ward will be paying the full Cub Country fee for the scouts this year. For those that have already paid the fee to me, I will be returning it.

I apologize for the confusion and thank you for your understanding.

Special Reminder for Next Week Den Meeting

As a reminder, we will not be having den meeting on our usual Thursday afternoon next week. We will be meeting at the church at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 3rd to go to Home Depot on 90000 S. and Redwood to work on Achievement 5e. Please make sure you wear your scout uniform.

Den Meeting: March 25, 2010

This week we worked on completing our requirements for the Heritage belt loop. The boys told us a little bit about their family, where they were from and if there were any scouts in their family. They also made posters about their family based on the information they gathered from their family interviews. They did such a great job. It is always interesting to find out about our ancestors, where they are from and the lives they lead. There is so much we can learn.

Please remember, we will not be having den meeting on our usual Thursday afternoon next week. We will be meeting at the church at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 3rd to go to Home Depot on 90000 S. and Redwood to work on Achievement 5e. Please make sure you wear your scout uniform.

Wolf Den Meeting: March 18, 2010

This week we worked on Achievement 10 a at den meeting. We talked to the boys about cooperation and what it can mean in several different situations. Please help your scout complete Achievement 10 by working on two of the other requirements of b-g with your family.

This week our two week health chart from Achievement 3a was also due. If your scout has not completed it, please keep working on it until completed and let me know or mark it off in their book.

We also handed out a packet of information associated with the Heritage belt loop that will need to be completed and brought back next week to make a poster on the scout's family. The packet included a family tree (three generations), and questions to ask family members about their their family heritage: its history, origins, traditions, and culture.

Thanks for a busy den meeting. Remember, please complete and bring back your family information packet to complete your poster next week.

Pack Meeting: March 11, 2010

I apologize that I wasn't able to make this month's pack meeting. A last minute incident prevented me from coming, but I heard that we had an excellent pack meeting thanks to our guest speaker. Our speaker is a policeman in our ward and came to talk to the scouts about his job. I understand the scouts loved it when they got to try on his S.W.A.T gear. Thank you for taking the time to come and share your job with us.

Also, many of the Wolf's earned their Art belt loop. Congratulations, Jake, Shayne, Adam, Tyrell and Luke.

Wolf Den Meeting: March 4, 2010

This week for den meeting we finished up our art belt loop by working on a color wheel. Each of the boys were given a blank color wheel with the colors noted on it and a chunk of red, yellow and blue play doh. They had to mix the primary colors of play doh to make all the remaining secondary and tertiary colors on the color wheel. They did a great job learning about colors and I think they loved playing with the dough.

We also handed out the activity consent form for the field trip on April 3rd to Home Depot for Achievement 5. Please complete and sign the field trip form and return it to me at pack meeting on Thursday, March 11th. We need to sign the boys up for the activity as soon as we can to make sure they have enough spots for all of us. Also, if you are able to help out and come with us as a driver and e chaperon, please let me know. Just a reminder, we will not be having den meeting on that Thursday, April 1st.

Thanks. See everyone at pack meeting.
