Running with the Pack

Hi Wolf Families! I hope everyone had fun last night at our meeting. I wanted to share this video about the Running with the Pack adventure. Feel free to encourage your kiddos to practice the front and back rolls as well as the frog stands. Don’t forget that the cubs had a little assignment to do with you. They get to plan a healthy meal and make a shopping list of ingredients for that meal. Next Monday, we will share our shopping lists in small groups. Check out the video here. I’ll also be sending a tentative schedule for the rest of our scouting year soon. Thank you for all you do! Lacey
