Pack 4 has been meeting for three months now and last night was our Court of Honor. We minted six new Bobcats, awarded twelve Winter Fun badges, four 2008 YardCharge awards and narrowly missed awarding the coveted Golden Fork (for extreme cooking on a campout). We also made candy cane and clothespin reindeer!
It's hard to have fun at these events unless you're a Cub or parent. Let me rephrase that: I believe the Cubs and their parents had fun. The Cubmaster was too busy being a Cubmaster and Den Leader and Master of Ceremonies to really have fun. But we're working on that. Adding a couple more parents to the Pack Committee will help immensely: how about a Membership Chair and an Advancement Chair?
Oh, and better add a Cubmaster to the list, too. My youngest boy is a Tiger Scout next year and I won't miss this chance to be his Den Leader for anything!
