Tools That Build a Better World Arrangement
Greater St. Louis Area Council
Each boy holds a tool as he speaks - saw, hammer, wrench, ruler, plunger, drill, and pliers. You will need seven Cub Scouts. Maybe hang tags on the tools with their parts in LARGE print
- We are the future builders of America and the world. And this is how we will shape tomorrow.
- (Hammer) I will hammer out injustice.
- (Saw) I will help cut out crime.
- (Drill) I will drill love into every heart.
- (Wrench) I will wrench out discrimination.
- (Plunger) I will plunge out hatred.
- (Pliers) I will pinch out poverty.
A Simple Block of Wood
Baltimore Area Council
Baltimore has this listed as a Skit, other books had this for Opening and / or closing. Take your pick CD
Characters: Each Scout holds a the designated prop in front of him
- A rectangular block of wood.
- Roughed out pinewood derby racer right from the box
- A partially completed racer with a little paint.
- A finished Pinewood Derby Racer
- A finished Pinewood Derby Racer
Setting: Each boy walks on to the stage to read his part- The last scout runs onto the stage shouting his line.
- I’m only a simple block of wood,
Cut from a tree so tall.
Unlike the tree that thundered down,
No noise would I make should I fall.
- But in the hands of a wide eyed boy,
Armed with a knife and a saw.
There are many shapes that I can take,
Some wide, some short, some tall.
- A little paint, a line or two,
Nothing fancy, but not too plain.
No two alike, made with loving hands,
We are all of the tree that remains.
- Like each little boy’s life, starting with form.
Like a block of wood cut from a tree,
The loving hands of leaders like you,
Help us each to be what we shall be.
- And I’m gonna be a racer!
