Calendar
Hi All!
Based on some feedback this is the best date I can come up with for the TD bank tour. Kids will get a badge, a certificate, and I think a goodie bag too. They will learn how the bank works see the vaulty and things like that. Only a 20-30 minute meeting. Please RSVP by end of the month beucause the bank will make your scout a personalized certificate in advance.
I hope you to see you all there if you can make it. This is a good opportunity for the kids to learn more about money management and banking. They are growing up so quick!
Best,
Ian

This is the first part of 2 or 3 meetings where we'll be earning our whittling chip. In this meeting, we'll be go through the basics of scouting knives and most importantly, reviewing and practicing knife safety. Before the scouts earn their whittling chip, they will need to demonstrate their understanding of knife safety. At the end of the meeting, we will start learning basic whittling techniques.
Please note, we will be learning techniques by using plastic knives and will continue to use plastic knives until we earn our whittling chip. If you happened to have already purchased a knives for your son, he should not bring the knife with him and I encourage that he performs his homework (i.e., a soap carving) with the plastic knife. If you plan on buying your son a knife, I highly recommend that you wait until we review the basics of scouting knives until doing so. The most common knives sold are generally not recommended for scouts. In the event that you would like to review the presentation that we will going through together at our den meeting, I'm attaching it here.
We'll be working on the "MY TIGER JUNGLE" requirement.
