Recently, the Bears held a Den meeting. During the meeting the Scouts worked on completing one of the Bear requirements, Baloo the Builder (pg.28). Scout parents, Jason L and Michael L, led this session.
The Scouts completed the following:
1) Learn about tools & safety rules. Practice with at least four tools.
2) Select, plan and define materials for the project in requirement three.
3) Assemble the materials into one useful & fun project using wood. The Scouts each made a small tool box. (Parents, please remember to pay Duncan $4 for the materials purchased)
To be completed at home:
4) Apply a finish to the project. See page 47 in the Bear book for details.
It was a fun night of learning and doing. A big THANK YOU to Jason and Michael for leading the session. Parents, if you have a hobby, skill or passion please reach out to your Den leader to find how you can help lead a requirement session.
Important reminders for all Scouts:
Meeting tips: wear your class A uniform, bring an adult, your Cub Scout Handbook and your ready to learn attitude.
Did you miss a meeting? That’s ok. All requirements can be done at home and signed off on by and adult. Once complete, just bring your book to your Den leader for the final sign off.
