Our annual Things That Roll was a great success with our partners the California Highway Patrol.
Kids (and parents) rode:
This is what we like: fun and safety!
Thank you to our local Altadena CHP! For more safety tips and to follow the CHP Altadena Instagram page go HERE.
The Pack is soon heading out to Joshua Tree. We will plan together before we go, but please review this campout safety checklist guide from BSA.

Meetings begin with a short game, and tonight is was, "How many cheerios can you string on a pipe cleaner...?"
This initially sounded like something that would appeal only to the younger kids - but when you add "...in one minute?" that changes everything! They loved it. (Then they ate their "bracelets" and left many Cheerios on the floor, of course....and learned to pick them up at the end of the meeting before they again played. Fun and responsibility...)
The Bear den presented the Scout Law & Oath and opening prayer/affirmation. The latter included words from Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor. (Over the course of the year, we aim to honor all belief systems, as well as meeting themes, and themes like September's Hispanic Heritage Month.)
Great to see new faces and old. Looking forward to the great activities kids do in their dens this coming month, and also Things That Roll this weekend. Check out the next post for more on that!
Sailing, kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, eating, crafting, shooting sports, swimming, paddle boarding, skit performing, nightly campfires, fun with friends. What a way to end the summer!
