Communicator Activity Badge for September meetings

Hello everyone,
Lucy will be leading the Wolf den activity Monday night.  More into to follow.

For the Webelos, Mary Catherine Malley will be leading the boys in the Communicator Activity Badge.  The below is from her:

Dear Webelos Parents:

On Monday the boys will begin working on the Communicator Activity Badge. We will also work on the Communicating and Computer Belt Loops. We will work on these advancement items for the next two meetings.

Please have your son read pages 168 to 196 in the Webelos handbook. It would be great if you had a chance to read it too. Please take a look at the Belt Loop requirements. The links to these requirements are included below. Please print out the worksheets at the end of the links below as they will help your son to choose the items that he wants to do to earn the belt loop and the pin. (Belt Loops can be done at any stage of cub scouting.)

Now that the boys are in 5th grade and headed to Boy Scouts, it is important for them to take a more active role leading aspects of our meetings. We will have several boys presenting at our meeting on Monday and we would like other boys to have a chance at the next meeting.

At the second meeting, we will focus on the computer and technology aspects of these requirements. If there is an item of the activity badge or the belt loops that you and your son would like to teach to the other boys, please let Mary Catherine Malley know at Monday's meeting. 

The goal is to complete the requirements while having fun and giving the boys a chance to teach each other with the help of a parent.

Thank you for your support of the boys in scouting!!

Mary Catherine and Mike Malley
