Cub Scouts WOLVES Visit the Fire Station

October 20, 2014: The WOLVES visited the Fire Station. They started their meeting with an outdoor flag ceremony where the firefighters taught them how to raise and bring down the Texas and the American Flags the proper way. Then they were given a tour of the fire station and got to see the fire truck and its tools up close. It was a tour filled with excitement and information for the kids and adults alike.

We concluded our meeting with an obstacle course.

First Time as Color Guard

December 17th, 2013: You know this is an exciting day when you are chosen to be one of the Pack Meeting's Color Guard for the first time. Dylan's eyes sparkled as he proudly carried the Pack Flag down the aisle. The fun continued with songs, crafts, cookie decorating, collection of toys for children in need, a very detailed tour of a firefighting truck, culminating with a Texas Snowball Fight. For those of you who do not know what a Texas Snowball Fight is, here you go - For most, it is having a "snowball fight" with ice cream instead of snow. No, we did not use this delicious, cold treat for our Texas Snowball Fight; we used crumbled up newspaper. Throwing all the newspaper around to others: a lot of fun; having to pick up every spec of it afterwards: not so much! I guess having to clean up the ice cream would have been a stickier situation.
