The Blue and Gold banquet is usually the most significant event that the Cub Scout Pack holds all year. It should be exciting and celebratory. The Blue & Gold banquet celebrates the anniversary of the birth of Scouting. I still remember one of my Blue & Gold meetings from long ago and the fact that I can remember it shows how much effort must have been put into it. The Blue & Gold celebration that I remember was held in my elementary school gym. Your Blue & Gold celebration may be held in a different location. Here are several web pages full of ideas that you could use to create your own decorations and centerpieces.
You could go to Amazon and buy your decorations (yes they have blue & gold decorations).

How about covering your tables with these centerpieces from Ribbonsandglue.com? The lady made these decorations from coffee cans.
