Set-Up:
This requires a bit of advance prep. All boys who are to receive awards need to be notified that they should bring a can of food or a small gift to the meeting.
You’ll need a Christmas tree.
Cubmaster:
I came from the North Pole tonight to share in the spirit of giving. Everyone should be able to feel the rewards of this wonderful season. We have several boys here tonight to whom I would like to give something—something for which they have worked very hard and deserve to receive. They will also be giving goodwill by helping those who are less fortunate, which is the sign of a true Scout. (Call out boys’ names, one at a time, and present each with his award and an ornament. The boy places his ornament on the tree and his food or gift under the tree.) Just look at the glow and feel the true spirit of giving. These Scouts have not only worked hard all month to earn their awards but have shown that extra measure of kindness and giving in this season of goodwill.
