Cub Scouts

I am enjoying being a cub scout. This is my second year. These are my pins and badges: citizenship, outdoorsman, fitness, Bobcat and work-in-kind. What I like about Cub Scouts is bb guns, pinewood derby, crafts and everything else! I like camping, my friends and the pack leaders. CCTV was so cool! I like everything (yes, I know I said that twice).

Camping

by Simon Justis

As a first year webelos I earned the outdoorsman pin by going camping. I liked hiking, fishing and sleeping with the cub scouts. We saw deer footprints on our hike and it was good exercise. When we got back from our hike we fished in the rain. I caught 6 fish and the others caught about the same amount of fish as I did.  Because it was so rainy, we set up out tent in the attic of the lodge. We rousted marshmallows and made smores together. After a long night we got up to a good smell. The smell was (drum roll please) pancakes, fish, eggs and sausage getting ready for us to cook. It was fun to make breakfast... outside... in the rain. I can't wait to go again.
