Favorite
Song Opening Ceremony
Trapper Trails Council
Cub #1: My
favorite song is "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain." I like it
because it reminds me of how excited I feel when my favorite (relative) comes
to visit me.
Cub #2: My
favorite song is "Singing In The Rain".
I love to run out in the rain, taste the raindrops and splash in the
puddles.
Cub #3: My
favorite song is "The Bare Necessities" from "The Jungle
Book." I don't like to worry about things I can't change.
I am happy with myself and my life.
Cub 4: My
favorite son is "Home On The Range."
I love to go camping with my family and enjoy the quiet and peace of
the outdoors.
Cub #5: My
favorite song is "God Bless America." I love my country, my flag,
and my home.
Cub #6: What
is your favorite song? It tells a lot about you - what is important to you,
what you think about, and what you like.
Cub #7: Please
join with us by singing the first verse of your favorite song.
Don't mind if someone by you sings something different.
We can still make beautiful music together.
Everyone sings the first verse of their favorite song.
You can bet that they will all be smiling at the end.
