Neighborhood opening

Preparation:
Have five Cub Scouts ready to walk on in turn carrying their
item: a newspaper, envelope, stop sign poster, 25-mph sign, or recycling tem.

Cub Scout 1:
(carrying newspaper) I’m your paperboy—I deliver the
news. Freedom of press has different views.

Cub Scout 2:
(carrying envelope) I’m the postman—I deliver with dash. The
new Boy’s Life is really a smash.

Cub Scout 3:
(carrying stop sign poster) Safety is my job; I’m the school crossing guard. You
cross the street safely to get to your yard.

Cub Scout 4:
(carrying 25-mph sign) I’m the speed limit sign, which saves lots of lives. People
obey me, during their drive.

Cub Scout 5:
(carrying recycle item) I’m the litter, which makes everyone bitter. Let’s recycle
it, so life will be better.

Cubmaster:
Our neighborhood is an important part of the country in which we live. We are good
citizens as we obey the laws and help to keep our environment clean. Whether we are indoors or
outdoors, we should leave nothing but footprints. This is a way to show respect for everyone and
everything.
