This past week, our Cub Scouts had a fantastic time at Goldfish Swim Academy, where they hosted us for Swim Safety education and focusing on our swimming requirements. The friendly staff and warm environment made learning essential water skills exciting and enjoyable for everyone!
After completing our requirements, the scouts enjoyed some free swim time, which was a welcome break from the winter chill. Laughter and splashes filled the air as they bonded and made new memories. A huge thank you to Goldfish Swim Academy for hosting us—we can’t wait for more aquatic adventures in the future!
Just before Christmas, our Pack excitedly embarked on our annual trip to the State Capitol. The festive spirit filled the air as we were greeted by stunning Christmas decorations, including the large Christmas tree in front of the Capitol. Our host for the day, Senator Wintrow, welcomed us warmly and made the experience unforgettable.
During the visit, Senator Wintrow guided us through the Capitol showing us highlights on each floor including Committee rooms, the Senate chambers and even her own office. She also shared valuable insights about how laws are made. We learned about the legislative process and even had the chance to brainstorm ideas for our own laws and press the Senator on hypothetical questions. It was a unique opportunity for the scouts to see the importance of civic engagement and understand how they could make a difference in their community. We left inspired and grateful for the warm hospitality of Senator Winthrow, making this trip a memorable highlight of our scouting year.
The anticipation in the air was electric as the Cub Scout Pack gathered for the much-awaited Pinewood Derby event. It was a day where ingenuity met velocity, and the scouts, with the help of their parents, transformed simple blocks of wood into aerodynamic masterpieces.
Weeks before the event, our scouts embarked on a journey of creativity and bonding. With sandpaper, paint, and a plethora of decorations at their disposal, each scout, assisted by their parents, carved, sanded, and painted their unique cars. It wasn’t just about crafting the fastest car; it was about the memories made during the process.
As the race commenced, cheers erupted from the sidelines. Scouts and parents alike watched with bated breath as the handmade cars zoomed down the track. Each race was a display of sportsmanship and the spirit of scouting—encouraging each other, celebrating every victory, and learning from every outcome.
While the fastest cars earned their well-deserved accolades, the event was also about recognizing creativity and effort. Awards were not just for speed but also for top designs. It was a celebration of imagination, where every scout felt like a winner.
The Pinewood Derby isn’t just another event; it’s a cornerstone of our scouting experience. It teaches our scouts about physics, craftsmanship, and competition, all while having fun. As we closed the day with laughter and stories, it was clear that this was more than just a race—it was a highlight of our scouting year.
We invite you to join us in our next adventure and experience the joy and learning that scouting brings.
