CLOSING
CEREMONY
Nature and the Good
Visitor Closing
Circle 10 Council
Committee
Chairman: Our Pack
meeting tonight brought us all together to think about nature.
We can enjoy the great outdoors but we think of others who will
follow us. Wherever you go in
the great wide world of nature, try to be a "good" visitor who
will leave the plants and the creatures for others to enjoy after you leave.
First
Cub: The only shots
I took were snapshots.
Second
Cub: I tried to
walk on pathways to keep off plants.
Third
Cub: When I see
animals or birds, I try to remember that I am a guest in their living place
and I don't do anything to them but look at them.
Fourth
Cub: The one big
thing I always do when I am ready to go home is to look and see that all
fires are out in nature's backyard.
Cubmaster:
With Cubs and Webelos like you to help keep our friends on the ball, I'm
sure that the beauties of nature will be around for years to come.
Thanks Cubs, Good Night.
Rope Closing
Personnel:
Cubmaster
Equipment:
2 strands of cord in different colors
Cubmaster:
(show two strands of cord in different colors like blue and yellow.)
By itself, neither of these strands is very strong.
I think a couple of strong Cub Scouts could break either one.
(Call forward two Cub Scouts and ask them to wind cord into a single
rope.) Together the two strands make a rope that is more than twice
as strong as either one alone. There’s
a lesson in that for us: If our
pack is to be strong, both boys and parents must do their part.
Happy Trails
Heart of America
Council
Personnel:
4 Cubs and a narrator
Narrator:
Our pioneer forefathers found and followed many trails.
The Native Americans explored the country first.
European settlers followed. With each new person came new experiences
and new challenges.
Cub
1: Our trail is the
Cubbing trail!
Cub
2: Our experience
is the fun and adventure of Cub Scouting.
Cub
3: Our challenge is
to be good Scouts, friends and neighbors.
Cub
4: Our future is to
explore the world around us, moving up the trail from Cubs to Webelos and
then to Boy Scouts!
Narrator:
Let’s join
together in singing “Happy Trails to You”.
Cowboy’s Philosophy
Heart of America
Council
Personnel:
5 Cub Scouts
Setting:
Boys up front
Cub
1: We, the cowboys
of the western plains are bound by our desire to live free.
Cub
2: We must,
therefore, show respect for our fellow man.
Cub
3: Respect for his
beliefs, Respect for his belongings, Respect for his privacy, Respect for
the ground he walks on and the air he breathes.
Cub
4: In doing so, we
show respect for ourselves.
Cub
5: And secure
freedom for all.
