OPENING CEREMONY
Opening Greater St. Louis
Area Council
Setting: Webelos are working on their
Traveler activity pin. Webelos #1: Well, for our Traveler
activity pin, let's plan a trip to the Orient! Webelos #2:
Where is the Orient? Should I bring my gameboy? Webelos #3:
(unrolling large map): I think it's a long ways
away. Webelos #4: Let's learn something about China. I
heard they celebrate New Year's with fireworks and parades and a
variety of animals! Webelos #1: Let's go to the library
and find out some more. I'd like to know what things there are to
see and visit. Webelos #2: Do you really think we can
visit? Webelos #3: In this day and age, with computers and
other ways of sharing information, we could sure learn a
lot. Webelos #4: Hey guys, let's get going and look for the
gateway to the Orient.
Your Flag Heart of America
