My Son is a Wolf Scout too
My son will also be a wolf in cub scouts this year. After just joining in September with my son. I decided I could help out the pack by keeping track of the advancement records. I started going to roundtables, and adult leaders meetings, training etc. And I decided I really liked cub scouting too. In April, our acting cubmaster needed to resign his position, due to council responsiblities. At one meeting I told a group of other leaders I was considering taking the cubmaster position. They in turn surprised me and said, "We were talking about asking you to do it" We have had a great summer break. Fishing, Swimming, Day Camp, a BBQ and baseball, plus mini golf, and we were in our local parade, (of which we won a third place trophy.) We have some of the greatest parents, who make everything we do great. The boys have a blast, and with everyone chipping in it works great. And don't settle of a pack, that doesn't "do anything". Scouting should be fun, get in there and mention some fun activities, offer to help talk to someone to arrange it. Then enlist the help of other parents. (Lots of people want to help, but don't know what they could do.) Parents who love fishing, are great resources for information on fishing spots. Parents also have other great hobbies that they would be willing to share.
Everyone have a great scouting year. I know we will!!!
