If you read my blog on Scouting for Food, you know I love being a Tiger Cub leader. This week, my son and I visited the Boy Scout Museum. Did you know we even had one in Milwaukee? I didn't and it's fabulous. Once of the biggest Scout museums in the country, the exhibits include collections of old Cub and Boy Scout uniforms (for boys and leaders), scout handbooks over the years, patches, badges and a general history of scouting. This is a great place to go with dad, granddad and any scout or non-scout to learn about the history of boy scouting. The scout store is in the same building and it was worth the hour visit. If you have a little cub scout or plan to sign your son up for scouting, I recommend a visit! Here's the link... http://www.milwaukeeboyscouts.org/site/c.huLSJ6MUKxH/b.1171367/k.BEDE/Home.htm

I'm a tiger cub leader and enjoying every moment! The 7 little guys in my den are so full of energy and eagerness to search, discover and explore and watching them do this is so gratifying. These past two weekends were extra special for all Cub Scouts in Milwaukee as they participated in the Annual Scouting for Food Drive. Whether it was attaching that plastic bag on your mailbox one week or picking up a filled bag a week later, the scouts were able to see and feel how to help others in need. All donations are given to Second Harvest and this is their biggest food drive of the year. They rely on the community's generous donations and the Scouts help for a successful drive.
If you would like to make a donation, Pick 'N Save stores are accepting donations through April 4 in the Boy Scout barrels in the front of the store. Let's all practice loving character skills and help someone else in need.
