CUB SCOUTS

TIGER CUB PROGRAMS

Let's Go Outdoors
By exploring our surroundings, we have a better idea of what goes on in nature. Scouts will take a hike in Willow Creek Woods, learn about the different places plants and animals grow and live, and make bark rubbings to see the differences between plants. Fulfills requirements for Achievement 5D & 5G.

Plant a Seed
There is no better place to discover plants than to explore the ancient oaks of Lords Park. Scouts will look at the trees up close, create leaf rubbings, learn how to grow and care for a plant, and even plant a seed of their own! Fulfills requirements for Elective 30.


WOLF CUB PROGRAMS

Birds
Scouts learn to identify birds through sight, song, foods and habitat. Discuss how birds have evolved different strategies for survival, then explore the Museum's collection. Scouts will then try their hand at bird watching around Lords Park. Fulfills requirements for Elective 13a, b, c, d, e.

Family Fun
This one really isn't a group program, but it completes a requirement! Just stop by the Museum with your family. Regular hours apply. Fulfills requirements for Achievement 10b.

Native American Lore

Sharing Your World with Wildlife

Communicator
Speaking, singing and body language are just a few ways we as humans communicate emotion and behavior. Scouts will explore different communication methods, from drawing to playing games like charades! Fulfills badge requirements.

Forester
Products from the forest are all around us. We sit on them, write on them and drink out of them. Scouts will learn the ingredients necessary for the healthy forest, which in turn sustains all other life on Earth, by exploring Willow Creak Woods. Fulfills requirement #1,3,5,6,7 & 9.
