Camping at the Dunes was Fantas"TIC"
The boys had a great time rolling down sand dunes and visiting the beach. It was said by the older scouts that Chicago could be seen at night from the shores of Michigan. Special thanks to the Webelos parents for hosting the outing and the 965 Boy Scouts for showing the younger kids the ropes of camping and putting on skits at the campfire. Hopefully, the tics didn't follow us home. Pictures will be posted soon later this week.

Welcome to the 2006-07 Scouting Year!!!
On behalf of the scout leaders, I would like to welcome you to the St. Juliana Cub Scout blog (weblog). We will keep the upcoming events, reminders, communications, and pictures out on the blog. If you have ideas as to what else we can include to make the site more useful, please email me at steffentodd[at]sbcglobal[dot]net. I'm new at this, so I'll take all the help I can get.
Our first Pack Nite will be Monday, September 18 from 7:00-8:30 PM in the school hall.
The trip to Eagle Cave is next weekend (Sept 22-24).
Wondering what to do with all those digital pictures you take at your den meetings and outings??? If you collect pictures from any scout event, please email them to me along with a blurb of who, what, when, where and I'll be sure to include them in this blog.
Here are some from last year's pack nite when Tom showed us how to handle an alligator.
