Help!

Bandages, brain jelly and burns. Boomerang night at 1st Camberwell South and this time it was Health and Safety.

AAA what a day!

Cubs and leaders from across the district descended on our hall on Saturday for an active afternoon of diverse activties. AAA day had arrived at 1st Camberwell South. It was a mini fair with different booths offering samples of exciting Cubbing activities.

Welcome

Joeys bouncing into Cubs, new chums being painted, it must be a new term! Getting to know you was the theme for the night and a fun night of activities was finely crafted by Bagheera to welcome our newest members.

1003 days later…

A cryptic title I know. 1003 days is the average length of stay in the Cub Scout section for our youth members, of who we farewelled six last Wednesday night. Alex, Nina, Dora, Lachlan, Jessie and Emily have all moved on to the next great adventure that will be Scouts. We also awarded what I believe to be a first, four Grey Wolf badges! It was a concentrated effort by all involved but Dora, Lachlan, Jessie and Nina all got through the requirements and can now wear the Grey Wolf badge with pride on their shiny new Scout uniform.

Tonight we welcome eight new members to A Pack, four Joeys and four new chums, time to get the white paint out again!

And the real meaning of the 1003 days, that was the time from when Akela completed his Wood beads training until they were finally awarded. I will wear them with pride!

Woof Woof Woof…

And welcome to another term of Cubs. Jump across to the noticeboard for your very own copy of the term program which will take us out for the year –  2008 is just around the corner, new chums, AAA day, swimming at Waves, Lawn bowls, investitures and of course Pack Holiday!

Term 4 is looming…

And the end of another Cub year is fast approaching. Wednesday night we farewell a number of our long serving Cubs as they continue their Scouting adventure and Monday night we welcome 8! new members to A Pack. Its going to be a busy term with AAA Day on October 20, Pack holiday at the end of November and an action packed term of Cubbing fun planned.

Hard Rock

Well, we have finally hit the wall at A Pack.

City ho!

It was a good idea at the time, gather Cub Scouts from our District (Boroondara) and race each other to the city on our bikes. Well it was not planned as a race, but by the time we had ridden in and out of the city, to some leaders it felt like we had ridden Le Tour.

Heroes and legends

Footballers, rugby players, cricketers, swimmers, cyclists and ballerinas! Yes another night at Cubs and another chance to raid the dress up box – or in this case the sports wardrobe. A challenge for some was an inspiration for others and we learnt of some the specail sports that kids these days participate in. Taekwondo and Karate from the east, and all manner of ball sports from home and abroad.

Hello Possums!

Ok, so Dame Edna did not make a special appearance, but with a deft application of Edna glasses the hall was filled with glamourous Dads, a Mum and Cubs for another A Pack Fathers night. We learnt a little about our Cubs and an lot about their Dads as all shared a little.
