- First Aid Kit – A kit should include a few adhesive bandages, some moleskin (a sticky bandage that you can put over a blister to keep it from getting worse or rubbing), and a bandage or two.
- Filled water bottle Make sure it is big enough to carry water for you to drink through your whole hike and back. And make sure it is full when you start out! It is not safe to drink water you find along the trail.
- Flashlight Check your batteries to make sure they have plenty of juice. Your flashlight will be used only in an emergency, so save the batteries for times when you really need them!
- Trail food Trail mix or a granola bar provide quick energy when you need it.
- Sun Protection Sunscreen should be SPF 30 or greater. A hat is good to have, too!
- Whistle It's only for emergencies, but a whistle will last longer than your voice.
You are welcome to invite any friends and families with boys that are Cub Scout age (grades K-5). Please be sure to RSVP to let us know you are coming and how many guests to expect.

IMPORTANT
The AOL meeting and activity schedule has been built to ensure that all AOL scouts are able to complete all requirements for their Arrow of Light Rank prior to the Blue & Gold Banquet in early March, 2019. We understand that families have many different commitments and it may not be possible to attend all meetings. If an AOL scout misses a meeting or other scheduled activity (including camping trips and joint activities with local scout troops) that is directly related to one or more Arrow of Light requirements, it is important that the AOL scout works with his family and pack leadership to complete the missed requirement/s as soon as possible.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email [email protected] or phone 973-437-6163.
Hi Everyone,
If you were not able to attend our fitness requirement den meeting early this month, here is a make up date. This kids had fun playing various sports and learning stretches and different ways to exercise. It may be cold so dress accordingly.
Thanks,
Ian

<<<Rescheduled from November 8th>>>>
In this meeting, we'll be starting the Beat of the Drum elective. We'll have 2 main focuses for this meeting. The first part of the meeting, we'll be learning about legends, what they are, how they originate, and what their purpose is. The boys will be creating their own simple legend and will be developing a skit around the legend that they create (note: we'll be coming back to this skit for several den meetings after this, practicing to present it to the Pack,
The second part of the meeting, the boys will be learning how to make a paracord bracelet. To help prepare you and your son for the meeting, I will follow up with a link for a Youtube video that demonstrates how to weave the paracord for the bracelet..
