Hiker barely survives after forgetting 10 essentials.

Dwayne — Wed, 06 Oct 2010 15:48:29 +0000

It was a three-mile walk that the 64-year old had done many times in Joshua Tree National Park. What could go wrong?

Rosenthal told CBS News, “I wasn’t prepared. I had two huge bottles of water I left at the hotel.”

After leaving most of the Ten Essentials in his hotel room, including water and food, Mr. Rosenthal has only the cloudy skies which brought 20 degree cooler weather, his luck in stumbling into a shaded canyon and a diligent search team for saving his life.

After learning about the the the the you the problem local ecosystem will head out to do some cleanup, repair century cages and maybe even add a few more in order to help the Walden pond environment. Ask any of those who attended our conservation project in May and I think you’ll find that was a lot of fun, a bit of learning and a great experience all the way around.

Tigers Learn About Boulder History

Dwayne — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 17:49:00 +0000

In a recent trip to the Boulder History Museum, Tiger scouts went on a scavenger hunt for historic Boulder items. Mining equipment, school books, phones and huge ice saws were all on the list of things the eager young troopers roamed through the museum seeking. They compared the desk schoolchildren of the early 1900’s used compared to the shared tables used by many students today. The wall phones were difficult to spot, when most phones today easily slip into a pocket.

1st Tiger Den Meeting

Dwayne — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 02:51:13 +0000

We had a great group of kids for our kickoff Tiger Den Meeting. After a spirited Flag Ceremony, we practiced the Scout Oath, Sign and Motto. The guys did a great job with all of it.

Then we jumped into creating our Pinwheel neckerchief slides project and imaginations took off. Markers, glitter and pens were flying as the kids turned construction paper into works or art.

All that work built up a healthy appetite and the guys worked together to build a delicious snack, Crunchy Dirt. When ready they each grabbed a mouthful and began chanting, “We love Crunchy Dirt, We love Crunchy Dirt!”

Welcome to the 2010-11 scouting year

Dwayne — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 19:11:40 +0000

Welcome back for another wonderful year of Cub Scouting. I bet you had a great time this summer and I can’t wait to hear all that you did and the things you learned about the great outdoors. I hope you are ready for a busy and fun time with cub scouts because we certainly have a lot planned.

Your Den will be meeting over the next several weeks and our first pack meeting is Wednesday, September 15 starting at 6:15 PM at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church. Let your friends know and be sure to be on time because we will have a lot of gathering activities that are sure to be a lot of fun.

Webelos, be sure to get the latest information about the 100th Anniversary Camporee in Estes Park the 25th and 26th of September and joining troop 377 and the Air Force falcons football game against navy October 1st to 3rd. Both will be a lot of fun and you should try to join us.

I look foward to seeing all of you in a few weeks. If you know of any first graders who want to join the pack or learn more about scouting be sure to let them know that we have our introductory meeting on Thursday, September 2 at 4:00 PM to talk about cub scouting. We will meet at the church.
