Off To A Great Start!

The Den and Pack meetings last week showed me that there is a lot of enthusiasm for scouting this year. There were ten scouts at our house Wednesday night and there will be at least two more joining our group. If you do not have the book yet, you should purchase one soon at the Scout Store. The address and map for the store is in the "Important Links" section of this blog. You should also get the blue Bear Scout neckerchief and clip. If you are new to scouting you will need to buy the shirt. The gal at the store will help you out with what you need as far as patches to put on the shirt.

The next Den meetup will be at noon before the Candalaria Cleanup on October 25th. We will get started accomplishing the requirements for the Bear Badge. On the following Thursday, October 29, we will meet up for the Den meeting at Candalaria at 6:45p.

If this is your first year in Cub Scouts, it's important to get started on the Bobcat requirements. The Bobcat requirements are at the beginning of the Bear Book and must be completed before the scout can achieve the Bear Badge. The parent and the scout can work on this together and let me know when this is completed. Once accomplished the scout will receive the Bobcat Badge at the Pack meeting.
Good Luck, See you soon.
