THE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT BEAR DEN MEETINGS AND UPCOMING EVENTS
Great Job Bears at Cub-O 2016!!
It was a tough competition, but our Bears persevered and never gave up! We scored 215 points total - one of the flags we found was the one of the hardest to reach and worth 30 points!! Preliminary results show that we are currently ranked as number 34 out of 45 teams!
Way to go Bears!!!

- Learning and following safety rules.
- A Scout is Trustworthy, and Obedient.
- Learn about three common designs of pocketknives.

This adventure is found on pages 30-41 in your scout's handbook.
*THINGS TO REMEMBER*
Do-At-Home:
High Priority (needs to be completed in the next week):
- Fellowship and Duty to God Adventure Loop- Please make sure this adventure is completed and recorded in CubTrails by Wed. Jan. 13th, 2016. This will ensure that your scout is awarded his loop at the next Pack Meeting.
- Work with your Scout to come up with two carving designs for this Monday's meeting - there are some great ideas in his Bear Handbook, or you can look online. Please remember the simper the better; one will be carved into soap and the other in wood.
- Read through the exercises in the Adult Guide in the front of your Scout's book and update CubTrails that you and your Scout have discussed this booklet in the drop down menu under Bear Rank.
- Each Scout needs to complete their Cyber Chip Requirements @: http://www.netsmartz.org/scouting then update CubTrails in the drop down menu under Bear Rank.
- Parents: Please complete the Youth Protection Training at: https://my.scouting.org/ Just create an account and complete YPT Training online. It is free of cost, and once complete, it is valid for 2 years. Thank you!
