What I'm Working ON - Calvin

Cub Scouts is fun. Right now I am working on the Athlete and Handyman badges.

For Athlete we built an obstacle course and raced on it. I also have to exercise for 30 days and keep a log of my progress.

Exercises I do everyday.

Push-Ups

Pull-Ups

I also do curl-ups (they are like sit-ups), verticle jumps, and time my 50 yard dash and 1/4 mile runs everyday.

For Handyman we learn about tools and how to use them. We did bike repair a few weeks ago. I can change light bulbs the right way by looking at the wattage and volts. My dad is going to teach me to check the oil and tire pressure on the car.

Cub Scouts is hard work but it is cool.

I Like Cub Scouts - Joshua

Cub Scout is fun. We play games at the camporee. I am on the arrow point trail in bears. My Bear Den Leader is Miss Rhonda. She is nice and helps us boys. Mr. Jeff helps her and brings us snacks.

I can't wait to be a Weebelos. I plan to earn more beltloops this summer and maybe some pins.

We bought a new tent to take camping take camping because our old one leaks. Mom says the boys will get the leaky tent and the girls will get the new tent. That stinks.

Tonight we have a den meeting. I will only meet with other bears like me. At the last meeting we learned how to tie knots. I don't know what we will do tonight. I can not wait.

Pinewood Derbies are Fun

Derbies are fun and simple.

You make your care and get it weighed.

Webelos Skit



Scout #1: "I wish our parents had that insurance that pays you when you can not camping."

Scout #2: "AFLAC"

Calvin: "What insurance is that?"

Scout #2: "AFLAC"

Scout #1: "You know that insurance that pays you when your parents can not take you camping."

Scout #4: "I'll get the frying pan."

All Scouts: "OOH lunch."

Scout #2: "AFLAC! AFLAC! AFLAC! AFLAC!"

Off camera:

"And that's how a Scout puts and end to those annoying commercials."

It's Awesome--Jeremiah

I love Cub Scouts. I like the parades and fireman departments.

I am a Tiger. I built a birdhouse with my friends. We also made puppets. I am having fun playing with my friends.

We are going to the camporee in April. We will eat snacks and sleep in a tent. I can't wait to roast marshmallows.

At pack meetings we get snacks. We do our skits and show all our stuff that we made. We also earn badges.

Cub Scouts are cooler than Awanas.

I earned my Bobcat Award. It was easy cheesy.
