Saturday, March 14, 2020 Some Scouts might ask “Why do we want to save a spider?” I have to admit. Spiders creep me out. Too many legs! But they are very beneficial. For example, they eat insects, including those pesky mosquitoes which drive us crazy at camp. This is a good opportunity to educate Scouts about ecosystems and how all parts of the natural world depend on each other. Here are a web of ideas for this day: Edible Spiders RecipeA snack made with crackers and pretzels. ......
 


Sandie sent in this question: Where do I find the “Germ Song”, the Mucus demonstration and the Sneeze demonstration? Thanks for the question. These are all requirements for the Wolf Germs Alive! adventure. The song and instructions for the demonstrations can be found in the Wolf Handbook. The sneeze demonstration involves putting confetti in a balloon, blowing it up, and then popping it. The confetti ends up all spread out, like germs in a sneeze. For the mucus demonstration, you make fake “mucus” from borax, warm water, and glue.  Then you use ......

As soon as she returned to the hotel, Star Scout Isabella Tunney grabbed a pen and paper. Her fellow Report to the Nation delegates huddled around her, recounting what happened in the Oval Office. Since no cameras, cellphones or recorders were permitted in that part of the White House, they wanted to jot down everything they remembered from their meeting with President Donald Trump. Part of the BSA’s Report to the Nation trip is to deliver copies of the report, which summarizes all the great things that happened in Scouting in 2019, to national leaders. Per the Boy Scouts of ......

I am a very firm believer that you can not yell what play to run, when your sitting on the bench. That’s fine, I am not that worried about that (mainly because I would still do the majority ......
