Tiger Cubs Host the Pack Meeting

Tonight the Tiger Cubs hosted the Pack 4 meeting which mainly meant running the flag ceremony. The boys did an amazing job. At the last minute I sprung a change on them that would give all of them a reading/speaking part. Everyone had a chance to rehearse before the meeting so there was one run through.

The rest of the pack was quiet as the boys led the ceremony, which I'm sure was a great help.

The theme for tonight was citizenship in America, with that the boys read the following:

Our country’s name expresses the principles that we hold sacred as citizens of the United States of America.

“U” is for united. We are a country of citizens united under one government and dedicated to the cause of freedom and peace.

“S” is for states. Our country is a union of 50 states. We are proud of our individual histories, but we come together to defend what is right.

“A” is for America. A land of promise filled with opportunity and beauty. America is a patchwork quilt of cultures and a stronghold of religious liberty.

It was great to have all of the boys involved. We all should be proud.
