For the premiere of the new game show Spin the Wheel, Fox selected a contestant they knew home viewers would root for. Someone with a story so compelling that you couldn’t help but want that person to win heaps of cash. They selected Daniel Konzelman, an Eagle Scout from Troop 604 of Eatonville, Wash., part of the Pacific Harbors Council. Daniel appeared in the June 20 pilot episode of Spin the Wheel, and his status as an Eagle Scout was announced ......

It’s important that we make them feel comfortable and actually glad that they’ve joined the Cub Scouting family. Joining us is Winnie Lee of Pack 681 in the San Diego-Imperial Council’s Rancho Mesa District. As she tells us – it all begins with welcoming the families. How do we do that? Let’s ......
