On Thursday, December 13th, a large group of Cub Scouts and parents went caroling to the assisted living centers in Metropolis. One of the most important lessons in Cub Scouts is to teach the boys that Cub Scouts give good will. I can't think of a better way to do that.
While the boys caroled, I had the fun of getting the hot cocoa and cookies, and more importantly, the popcorn prizes, ready to hand out. When the boys and parents made it back to the church, everyone came to order, and we quickly got the goodies going! I did miss singing, so I led the Pack in singing a nice round of "Rudolph." The boys also signed some wonderful Christmas cards which will go to the nice folks at Little Tractor, who let us use one of their trailers for the Christmas Parade, to Lisa Gower, our tireless accountant, and to Joe Ogle, without whom, Metropolis would not have a Cub Scout Pack.
This is the last Pack meeting of the year. Our next regular meetings will begin in January. In January, I will have a lot to post about our Pinewood Derby, the district Pinewood Derby, and believe it or not, upcoming Summer Camps for the boys.
To everyone, Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year!
Roger
