Hooked on Scouting Fishing Derby |
|
|
|
The Del-Mi District will again be offering a Hooked on Scouting Fishing Derby this year to assist your pack with their Spring Recruitment Efforts. As in years’ past, the event is a joining event for new Cub Scouts and their families, but this year, we will also be opening it up to existing Cub Scouts that recruit a friend to become a member of their Cub Scout Pack between May 1 and June 20. Our Fishing Derby will be held on Thursday, June 24, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at West Park in Carmel. For only $5 per Scout, we will provide hot dogs and refreshments to Scouts and their families. This is a rain or shine event, so please help your families plan accordingly.
The district will have a limited supply of fishing poles, bait and tackle available to borrow. If Scouts have their own, they are encouraged to bring it along. If your pack is interested in using this event to recruit new families into your pack, please contact Shawn Way at

BALOO Training--May 16 |
|
|
|
BALOO is a course for one or more members of the Pack Committee in how to plan outdoor excursions and camping trips for Cub Scouts. This training is not intended as an overnight experience, but rather a preparation of the Cub Scout leader interested in learning about overnight camping activities. A day of fun and learning prepares pack leaders to plan and carry out "entry-level" outdoor experiences, one that is safe and appropriate for Cub Scouts. Although this training is not required for all Cub Leaders, at least one member of a Pack Committee must be BALOO trained in order for their Cub Scout Pack to be authorized to go camping. This training is not designed for Committee Chairman or Cubmasters but is instead focused on the Committee Member who will be in charge of Pack Camping. The one-day BALOO session will give your pack's outdoor activity leader the tools to conduct a safe and successful overnight. It is not a heavy skills program. The morning BALOO sessions include the why and how of Cub Scout camping — planning, equipment, meal preparation, and campfire programs. In the afternoon, Cub Scouters rotate among four round-robin sessions—fire safety, stoves, and lanterns; first aid and sanitation; nature hikes and games; and cooking. Scattered throughout the day are plenty of the four S's: songs, stunts, stories, and showmanship. With proper planning and your BALOO-trained leader, your pack should be set for a fun and exciting weekend event. By completing this training course the participants will understand the focus of the Cub Scout level of the BSA program, acquire the skills and confidence necessary to plan and carry out a successful Cub Scout-level overnight activity, and increase their knowledge of the resources available from the BSA for carrying out this activity.
