Fri, 26 Sep 2008 Hi! I’m Pam Romano, your Webelos II den leader. My 11 year old son, Kannon, is a member of the Webelos’ den. My first experience, as a den leader, was last year with the Webelos I. We had a phenomenal scouting season filled with camping, hiking and of course, the best time of all… WEBELOS WOODS! What an action packed adventurous weekend for just the Webelos! We learned how to shoot bows with arrows, did target practicing with rifles and had the biggest & best bon fire of all the groups! I’m really looking forward to an exciting and memorable year for the boys! We’re recruiting a Den Chief (Boy Scout) to work again with the den since this was such a success last year. Final year before the boys move on to the Boy Scout ranks. Buckle your seat belts and get ready for an awesome grand finale year! [/Pack/Webelos2] permanent link Welcome back, new Webelos Scouts! We're going to have a great year as we begin the trail to the Arrow of Light. There are twenty activity badges for Webelos to earn -- from Craftsman and Engineer to Aquanaut and Outdoorsman -- and each Scout can blaze his own trail. It's a great adventure and we're going to have a lot of fun! We've already had our first adventure as Webelos with a beautiful afternoon of kayaking on Spot Pond. As a transition between Cubs and Boy Scouts, the Webelos program gives the boys more reponsibility and helps them develop a sense of leadership. Before you know it, we'll be ready for even more adventures as Boy Scouts. Thanks to all our parents for their support! Neil Williams and Jeff Crump Webelos 1 Den Leaders [/Pack/Webelos1] permanent link Welcome back Bears! I hope you had a relaxing and adventurous summer. By reaching the Bear level you are more than half way through Cub Scouting. Now that you’re older you can begin to take more responsibility with your involvement in Cub Scouts. To earn the Bear Badge, a Cub Scout must complete 12 achievements out of a possible 24 that are offered in the book. Much of the advancement for the Bear rank is done by the scout with his family outside of the den, similarly to the Wolf rank. The parent signs off in the scout's handbook and the Den Leader records the advancements from the handbook to tracking chart. The Bear program relies heavily on family involvement, but you will see this gradually change with the scout doing more with his den and more individual direction as he reaches Webelos and Boy Scouts. James Macdonald Den Leader Welcome Back Pack 722! It’s Frank Polischuk (Joshua’s Dad) looking forward to having a great year with all the returning Wolves. For those who don’t remember me, I was lucky enough to head up the Blue and Gold Event last Spring, and man that was a great time. My summer was awesome and I hope you all had a great vacation with your families and friends. I also hope everyone is getting all psyched up for the coming year with the Cubs…and of course checking their list of all the right people to hit up for popcorn, popcorn and more popcorn! What a great event to get the year off to a great start! Well, I look forward to seeing you in the fall, after all it is my favorite season of the year. I can’t think of a better time to start on my first year heading up the Wolf Den. See you all soon! Search, Discover, Share! That's the Tiger Cub motto, and we'll be doing just that in our Tiger Den this year. The Tiger Cub program is all about fun, family and friends, and we'll have a lot of fun as we begin the adventure of Cub Scouts. Tiger Cubs is a family-oriented program where boys and their families begin the adventure of Scouting together. From month-to-month each family takes a turn planning the outing and den meeting, so there's always something new to do around the next corner. Welcome to our Pack! Jeff Crump Tiger Den Coordinator |
