ALOHA
Great Salt Lake Council
Boys hold cards spelling "ALOHA" which is Hawaiian for good-bye. Each boy reads one of the parts and after the last one is read, all boys shout "Aloha."
- A - We came together and had our fun. It seems as though we'd just begun.
- L - We sang and danced and played some games. And had some fun with Hawaiian names.
- O - We ate new foods and learned how Hawaiian children play and shout.

The Meaning of the Promise Closing
Baltimore Area Council
Leader: There are many things that are said. Nothing is more meaningful than what we commit to in our lives. Cubs Scouts are not an exception.
- (looking around) It’s just me - me, myself, and nobody else - I sign my name to it
- My solemn work, my personal pledge, my sole commitment.
- I may not be perfect but I will try my hardest,
- To fulfill my obligations to my beliefs, my home, my community, and my forefathers.
- To lend a hand to my neighbors - even those I don’t know yet.
- To adhere to the approved guidelines of religious organization, state, school, and family.
- These words are easy for an adult to understand, but for children of all ages to an easier wording. (Ask everyone to join in the Cub Scout Promise)
