The “Core Value” for this month is Respect.  Respect is showing that we care.  Showing respect is as simple as taking the time to listen to what someone has to say.  We all have different ideas, faiths, traditions, looks, and families.  Showing respect is saying to yourself and others “That’s O.K. I still care even if we are not the same.

Showing respect for the Earth and all that is around us is also important.  Be careful to stay on paths and sidewalks when hiking and walking.  Always respect nature’s beauty by picking up garbage and not disturbing the plants and wild animals.  Be careful not to damage something that is somebody else’s, because it is important to them.

If you show respect to other people and things, you will receive respect as well.

Greetings Scouts and Scout Parents

          The “Core Value” for this month is Citizenship.  It is a goal in the pack for all scouts to learn what it means to be a good citizen.  One way to be a good citizen is to help others in your neighborhood, town, or state. 

Just recently we cleaned the ditches the ditches on the east side of town.  This was a good example of citizenship because we took responsibility for cleaning the ditch.  We were helpful to our community by making the area cleaner and safer for other people.

There are other ways to be a good citizen.  You can clean the local parks, perform flag ceremonies, or donate time to help others.  Sometimes it can be as simple as following the rules and regulations of your community.

front of the Scout Handbook.  Help the scouts learn what to say when

asking people for items for a food drive.

Here is a neat little song that I hope we can add to our pack meetings.

         

Cub Scout Vespers Tune: “O Tannenbaum” As the night comes to this land, On my promise I will stand. I will help the pack to go, As our pack helps me to grow. I will always give goodwill. And follow my Akela still. And before I stop to rest, I will do my very best.
