Scouting the Midway/04-08

PATCH OF THE MONTH


Fort Douglas Patriotic Walk:

Many boys may not know that we even have a military base in
Utah. What was it used for? Did they know that there was a U.S.S. Utah? Those questions and
many other interesting facts can be found at Fort Douglas.

GAME TWIST AND TANGLE
YARN BALL


Supplies—Big ball of yarn.
Have all families stand in a big circle. One

person holds the end of the ball of yarn. He
states his name and throws it to a person
across the circle. That person states his
name and throws it to someone else.
Everyone keeps hold of his or her yarn
piece. Continue until everyone has had the
yarn ball thrown to them. Then have fun
untangling it.
