Making "The Law of the Pack" Meaningful

[SeattlePioneer]

Personally, I have a hard time finding much of a use for "The Law of the Pack."

 

 

I'd be glad to get some ideas on how to make it a meaningful part of the Cub Scout program.

So, you can't find a use for this:

 

The Cub Scout follows Akela.

The Cub Scout helps the pack go.

The pack helps the Cub Scout grow.

The Cub Scout gives goodwill.

 

what part of this is hard to incorporate into EVERY MEETING?

 

The Cub Scout follows Akela.

 

The Cub Scout follOws their leader (parent, den leader, cubmaster, den chief, etc.) this happens in EVERY MEETING.

 

The Cub Scout helps the pack go.

 

The Cub Scout help fundraise, participates in meetings, helps his Den entertain at meetings, again done at EVERY MEETING.

 

The pack helps the Cub Scout grow.

 

Obvious, but, we teach the Cubs and build them into young men, prepared for Boy Scouts. Again, this is ongoing EVERY MEETING.

 

The Cub Scout gives goodwill.

 

pardon the sarcasm but DUH?!!?

 

If you cannot find a teachable moment for each of these point in EVERY MEETING, maybe you need to re-examine your role in Cub Scouting.

 

This is no different from seeing two Boy Scouts acting up in some way and asking, what part of the Boy Scout Law does that apply to?

 

Just at a younger and simpler version for the Cubbies
