Adventures in Altadena-Pasadena!
December was a blast for Pack 4! We dove headfirst into two unique experiences, and both events were a huge hit with the scouts.
Model Train Magic at a Private Home:
Our first adventure took us to a local resident's home, transformed into a miniature train wonderland! Amateur train enthusiasts from across the state showcased their meticulously detailed tracks and intricate locomotives. It was like a private museum filled with the joy of model trains. Our scouts were amazed by the craftsmanship and the sheer amount of detail in each display.
Behind the Scenes at the ArtCenter College of Design:
We were fortunate enough to participate in a special event at the ArtCenter College of Design. The highlight? A tour of the workshops! Seeing the incredible tools used for building and design firsthand sparked creativity and curiosity in our young scouts. They learned about the process, explored various materials, and gained a deeper appreciation for handcrafted objects. This visit perfectly complemented our Scouting focus on hands-on experiences.
Scouts as Art Critics!
Adding a playful twist, the ArtCenter students themselves had been tasked with designing toy cars! The students were being reviewed by the faculty that evening. Our scouts also took on the role of art critics, evaluating the cars based on functionality, design, creativity, and paint jobs. They had a blast choosing their favorite, and we even awarded a special "Pack 4 Favorite" prize!
Overall, December was a month filled with discovery, hands-on learning, and festive cheer for Pack 4. We can't wait to see what adventures await us next!
