| Activities - Cub Scout Resident Camp |
Posted Jun. 3, 2008 |
A long, long time ago, in a kingdom called Sequassen was the chance for Cub Scouts to become Knights of Sequassen. Slaying dragons isn't all these knights can do -- archery, swimming (but don't try this in your suit of armor because it will rust), fishing, crafts, sports and ecology are essential skills that all knights need.
At Cub Scout Resident Camp, Wolfs, Bears, Webelos and their parents/partners will engage in fun activities designed to promote parent/child interaction and bonding. No special knowledge or skills are required. All you need is the desire to have fun and share your Scout's joy! |
