One of the Eight Methods Used in Cub Scouting: Being Involved in Family and Home

                           

Family involvement is an essential part of Cub Scouting. Parents, guardians, siblings, and other family members provide leadership, support, and resources. Active family participation ensures that boys have a successful experience in Cub Scouting.

Fort Concho Historical Trail

The historical trail booklet is now available for Scout groups to use. The trail covers Consho Ave., the Depot area and Fort Concho. Tigers, Wolves, and Bears can use the walking tour as requirements for learning about their community. Webelos can use the tour to work on their Traveler badge. And don’t forget the Citizenship academic pin. Boy Scouts can take the tour to complete 2a (3) for the Citizenship in the Community merit badge requirement. Booklets can be picked up at the Council office. Once the tour has been completed, patches are available for purchase.

Family Camp-What A Fun Time

Family Camp took place at Camp Sol Mayer, October 21-22, 2006. We had a fantastic weekend. About 438 Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, Webelos Scouts and their families participated. The event was held at Camp Sol Mayer, near Fort Mc Kavett. We could not have had better weather. Evelyn Zalman, Camp Director for the event and her staff did a great job. We would like to extend our gratitude to all the volunteers who helped make the event a success. I cannot name all the volunteers for fear of leaving one out.

The mud pit, obstacle run, climbing wall, archery, BB guns, outdoor games, bounce castle, paddle boats, campfire, worship service, camping, push mobile races, tug-o-war, and much more were enjoyed by young and old. We had one man in attendance nearly 90 years old. He camped out.
