Scoutmaster Minute: Not sure about the rest of you, but I loved getting my own mail as a kid. Once I joined Cub Scouts that meant my own copy of Boy's Life every month. The jokes and stories from Pedro were always a kick...even if a little kooky. The awesome adventures other Scouts had undertaken were [...]

Scoutmaster Minute: Last weeks meeting by the Panda Patrol provided a great example of the possible when teamwork and EDGE methods are applied to pioneering.

Our plans for a Klondike station were tested over this weekend did not survive "the enemy" (aka Jacob, Ben, Spencer & Robert). However, with a little Scouting resourcefulness, they were able to make some modifications and found success building a self-supporting bridge. [...]
