Cub Scouts

Parker has been very active with the cub scouts this year.  He really enjoys it and is learning a lot of new things.  Here are some of the fun things he has done during the year.

In January they raced their cars in the Pinewood Derby.







 In February, the cub scouts visited the Aerospace Museum of 
California at McClellan Air Force Base.  It was open cockpit day 
so the boys  got to climb into a lot of different planes.  
They had a great time.












The boys got a chance to sew their own red vests that they 
put the patches they earn on.  Hayley brought her sewing 
machine to help out.






In March, we went up to the snow to go inner tubing at a Tube 
Run. This was Parker's first time in the snow and he had a blast.  
He loved going down the tube run, the weather was perfect and 
the scenery was beautiful.
















The cub scouts celebrated their anniversary with 
their Blue and Gold Dinner and Parker was awarded his 
wolf badge.
 












The cub scouts had an overnight trip to the USS 
Hornet docked in Alameda.  We had a great time touring 
all over the ship and learning a lot about it.  The bunks were 
actually pretty comfortable and we were made crew members 
and our pack helped serve breakfast in the morning.
