Cub Scout Pack #59 Meeting Agenda

for



Monday, April 1, 2013

 

We will begin work toward the Cubs Family Scrapbook requirement during this meeting.

 

Our innovative CubMaster, Dana Lenzo, has conceived a novel method for completing this specific requirement, with the whole family in mind. Instead of sending Leaders to sort through albums and likely gigabytes of digital photos, Dana will be distributing camera's to the Cubs themselves with instructions for using it to take images, on their own, of their Spring Break experiences. Please make sure your Son is in attendance!

 

HAPPY EASTER!

Cubs Burn Serious Rubber @ 2013 Pinewood Derby

Monday, March 25th Cub Agenda: A SURPRISE! However, you MUST BRING YOUR SONS CAR. We will be at the Warehouse rather than at the Fellowship Hall.

*******************

2013 Sierra Blanca Pinewood Derby Winners

We watched the Cubs from Sierra Blanca District Burn up our cool electronic track on Saturday at the annual Pinewood Derby, PWD.

ScoutMaster, Kevin Flusche indicated this particular year included a VERY fast group of cars, with the overall 1st Place Winner, Gavin Collins, taking it  only by thousandths of a second.  Many other winners placed within each rank. Once I have their full names and placement I shall post them.

All the Cubs and Leaders were winners for creating these mementos from a piece of wood, four wheels and four axle's.












Traditionally a Father Son activity, many of our Cubs completed their cars under direct supervision of a Mother, Neighbor or Grandparent. The process of creating and then racing these cars will live in the hearts of these Boys for their lifetime.

#59 Flies High @ Airport

Here is our new blog. We will use the blog to provide you with meeting agenda's, upcoming events, reminders and recently completed activities. If you sign up for the email feed, at the very top of this page, you will automatically be sent a weekly update.

We had a very informative and exciting day at the Sierra Blanca Regional Airport in Alto, New Mexico. Sean Parker conducted a complete tour of the entire airport operations including navigation, air traffic control, fire response and the physics of flying!

We learned the airport resources were instrumental during the Little Bear fire providing traffic control, lodging, planes and pilots. We appreciated the stellar view from the Traffic Tower and the thoughtful warning sign, in blue, reading "Watch Out Kevin", prepared especially for our 6'4 Scout Master, Kevin Flusche, who carefully had to enter the shallow door jam of the tower.

We extend gratitude to Mr. Parker and the Staff who truly made this day remarkable!

Monday, March 11th Cub Agenda:
Proper care and handling of the United States flag.

Monday, March 4th: Advancement of Your Cub

Our Monday, March 4th meeting, will include all the items we planned to cover last week but could not due to the SNOW DAY:

• Discuss our upcoming field trip to the Airport
