| I was looking for some ideas for the Pow Wow. I am responsible for the training of the Blue and gold and I am trying to get together a variety of information to hand out. Plus if you read this, before January 24th, I am looking for a craft which is a Cub Scout nut cup. It is made out of pipe cleaners and the little cups they use for communion. I am now involved in Boy Scouts as my boys are at the ages of 22 and 19, so it has been a long time since I did a Blue and Gold so any help would be greatly appreciated. Our theme for this year is Fiesta. | ||

| Good site. I am cubmaster of a pack. Wondering how to make an announcement into either a ceremony or game, but the idea is intriguing. | ||
| A:
Yes,
it can be tricky - try burying announcements in run-ons, crazy skits by
adults in silly costumes or in a gathering time quiz.

| Very good ideas on the pack meeting. An area for a new pack that is forming to focus on. I would like to see an online form like a word doc so that the leaders could shoot ideas back and forth (email) until they get a plan. So do you plan 1 or 2 months ahead for the pack meeting? | ||
| A:
I have always favored planning a pack meeting at least 6 weeks in advance
to give dens that much time to prepare.

We would be VERY grateful to you if we could use this as the center piece of our Pack flag. Please respond ASAP as we would like to have the flag ready By Blue and Gold at the end of this month. I found the image about a year ago while I was at another pack. My E-mail is at the guestbook sign in. Please respond even if it is a no. Thank you. | ||

Your pack is welcome to use anything on the web site.
That particular image was originally used some thirty years ago to silkscreen neckerchiefs for Den Chief training . My wife suggested the idea and I drew it. |

We just had our Scout Sunday, Blue and Gold( had 1 Arrow of Light), and our Pinewood Derby. I served as Primary President, Troop Committee Chairman for a while. Scouting is such a great program for the boys. I have been around Scouting for a while. My husband has been in Scouting for 30 some years. He was Scoutmaster, has taught many training courses, has his 2 National Awards, is serving now as Charter Organizational Representative. So, as you can see, Scouting is in our family. I so appreciate someone like yourself who is there to help other Scouters. Keep up the good work. Yours in Scouting, Mary | ||
