Welcome Back

Hi everyone,

Welcome back. Hope you all had good holiday celebrations. No one got coal for Xmas ? Good. :o)

A new year has started and we have alot of activities planned: hike, sleepover, BP banquet, working on kub cars, winter camp ... all in less than 2 months. Expect some more info on those events.

REMINDER: Don't forget the KC tickets and money !!!

Our 1st meeting back was this week. It was marked by a special pizza supper given to the Wolverine six ( Ryan, Nick, Tyler and Ryan ). The Wolverines led the pack in points per cub. For those of you who have forgotten we have implemented a points system this year. :o) The competition was close but they won fair and square.

1st Rant of 2006:
***Start of Rant****
There are 2 things I need to get off my chest:

1. I'm getting tired of kids sulking and whining if they are not teamed up with their buddies when we are doing games or activities. There's nothing wrong in feeling disappointed you're not with your friend but whining about it and actually opt out of a game because of that is quite annoying.

2. Cubs (if any of you actually read this) , please accept your fate during a game. If you are disqualified, "out" or "it" , PLEASE stop whining and arguing about it. Games are only a few minutes and we play tons of them throughout the year. When a leader tells you you're out ... you're out.

Phew, now I feel better. I know, I know they are just kids and they are behaving as kids do but such a thought does not make our lives as leaders any easier. :o) Maybe, it's just me but it seems alot worse this year. Or maybe we have a few more competitive cubs that don't like to loose. Competitiveness is good but humility is good also. :o) ..... allright enough already.

***End of Rant****

Let's all work as a team.
Have a great scouting year every one
