Bear Den - 3/4/2014 & 3/11/2014

03/4/2014 - First of all we finished up our Bear flag and hope to present it at the next Pack Meeting.  We are looking for someone to sew the edges, if you know of someone please let us know.

The boys learned how to tie a square knot and a bowline.  We practiced trying to tie the bowline in 2-3 seconds.  We still have some work to do.  They learned how to whip the end of a rope and they learned how to coil and toss a rope of rescue about 20 ft.  There are 2 more knots we need to teach the boys and we will learn a magic trick the next time we meet.  Other than that we accomplished Achievement #22 "Tying it all up"

03/11/2014 - Most of the Scouts and their parents showed up at the Tooele City Police Station.  We were welcomed by Sgt. Gowans who gave us a tour of the facility showing us the interview room, the evidence room, the stolen bikes cage, and we saw a car that was confiscated that was part of a fraudulent title case.  We topped off the night with the boys talking about crime prevention in their homes and doing their fingerprints.

As per the letter read in Sacrament Mtg. we will not hold Scouts next Tuesday.  If this changes we will be in contact with you.
