Hike #1: Maple Syruping at Hudson Highlands - 3/9/13

I led our pack on a maple syruping trip this past Saturday at Hudson Highlands.  The trip involved some hiking, as well as learning.  I am counting this as Goal 1 item!   The above are some shots from the trip.

Diversity Project On It Way!

It took a while to do this part of the project, but it's finally done.  My diversity project, Goal #5, involving getting to know British Cub Scouts, is finally showing some progress.  A few weeks ago, i heard back from my British counterpart with a list of names of her kids, and the approval to move forward with the project.  I randomly assigned each one of my Webelos 1's to one of her scouts - came up one short on my end though - she had 10 names and i had 9 boys - so i drafted my son Sam, the wolf scout, to be the 10th American Scout!  The letters came out really good - and they are now packaged and on their way overseas!
