Bear Cub first Adventure plus new meeting time!


Hi Bear Cub families,

I'm excited to begin another fun year of scouting with your boys. We have a great year planned, plus a few changes. The first Change is the new meeting time of 6pm, instead of 6:30. This will enable us to join with the other dens in our pack and practice the opening flag ceremony. Get ready boys, we will be leading this year!!!

I visited the first grade classes today and met some excited new Tigers. At our first meeting, we will be welcoming new Tiger parents who are coming to check out our pack and learn more about us, so please welcome them. Steve and I will be talking to the new parents.  Jessie has stepped up again to take our first den meeting, Thanks Jessie!

Pick up the new Bear book at the scout shop and take a look at the changes.  In the past we have worked on Achievements, those have been changed to Adventures.

This meeting we will be working on our first Adventure "Bear Claws" Please have the boys bring their pocketknives. (The Scout shop sells them, REI have a good selection also). We will be teaching knife safety, learning how to sharpen our knives and will be making our first carving. We will begin by carving a bar of soap. If you have an extra bar of soap at home please bring it, otherwise I will bring some extra and the band aids :)

Our first pack 93 outing will be beach clean-up at Del Monte Beach, on Saturday Sept 19th. I will post details soon.

See you Monday! (Sept 14th)

Lucy.
