zing Progress
Activities
master of the Clinton Cub
Scout Pack, attended a training
program from Oct. 25-26
along with Scouts Eugene
Boyette and Pat Harris. These
two boys will serve as Den
Chiefs, guiding their younger
fellow-scouts in their work.
It might be well to explain
the difference between cub
scouting and boy scouting.
because we feel if more parents
know just how this program
works, they will be
more interested in seeing that
their young boys immediately
join this new organization of
Cub Scouts here.
Boy Scouts do most of their
work at their troop meetings
and under the direction of
their scoutmaster and his assistants.
Cub Scouts meet
weekly with a den mother
and work on a specified
monthly project, but most of
the work is done at home with
their dads. There is a separate
cub scout book for each of
the ages, 8, 9 and 10. If a boy's
father happens to like wood
working, carpentry, metal
work or a thousand and one
other things, he can work
with his young boy on these
projects, giving him advice
and thereby helping the boy
to improve himself and bringing
about a closer relationship
between father and son.
Cub Scouting takes a little
work on the part of parents,
but it pays off a thousand to
one in helping your son.
If you have a boy this age,
be sure to have him get into
the Cub Scout work. He will
like it and so will you. Dave
Dunawav or the personnel office
at Clinton Mills will be
glad to give you further information
on this program.
