75th anniversary skit or puppet show-please help!

[momof7]

Have you done these? I would like to find a script and ideas for doing one or the other, for our boys to earn the emblem. Thank you in advance!

I recommend reading the Kipling's Jungle Book. Disney used the characters for its version, but there are differences.

 

Puppet shows can be very simple. The boys can make bag-puppets for Akela, Mowgli, Baloo, Sher-Khan, etc. and 'act out' a scene or two from the book. I think it would work better if you let them use their own words for based upon the scene.

 

BTW, reading the book is one step for the 75th Leader Award.

Hello,

 

This is a Skit we did at a Pack meeting. It was very simple. You might have to change the wording a bit to fit your area.

 

Cub Scout 75th Anniversary Skit

The Boys will line up at front of Room holding cards that spell out 1930-(one one card) Cub Scouts-(One card for each letter) 2005-(on one card)

 

Scout 1: Lord Baden Powell said it best, lets put these boys to the test.

 

Scout 2: Ernest Thompson Seton said it too. Lets see what these young men can do.

 

Scout 3: Uncle Dan Carter Beard said lets start it here. Tri-state Boys, get your gear!

 

Scout 4: William Boyce and Dr. James West put in their ideas and did the rest!

 

Scout 5: Boy Scouts of America was Born!

 

Narrator: The only problem was that almost every Boy Scout had a little Brother that wanted to be just like him! Ernest Thompson Seton addressed the younger boy problem by creating Cubbing.

 

Scout 6: Many changes we have seen. Lions came and went. Instead, Webelos Scouts pitched their tents!

 

Scout 7: Tigers now roam everywhere, chasing the Bob Cat we all share.

 

Scout 8: Den Mothers became Den Leaders. Day Camps sprouted up.

 

Scout 1: Camping, Singing, Games and more. Looking for fun, the boys were sure to score!

 

Scout 2: Pinewood Derby Cars race down the tracks, leaving Scouts cheering as they pass.

 

Scout 3: Weve collected Tires, food, and clothing, in times of strife and times of war.

 

Scout 4: If we were needed, we kept collecting more.

 

Scout 5: Over five million boys have passed through Cub Scouts, on their way to become men.

 

Narrator: Former President Clinton, Gold Medalists Bruce Jenner, and Mark Spitz. Even actor John Schneider, and Country Singer George Strait.

 

Scout 6: Over 14 former Astronauts even started out as Cub Scouts.

 

Scout 7: Cub Scouts. 75 years and still having fun.

 

Scout 8: Boy Scouts. Because Boys will be Men!

 

ALL : HAPPY 75th ANNIVERSARY!

I wrote this skit just this year. I was trying to include some Scouting History.
