Blazing trail with Order of the Arrow


What amazing weather for yet another optional Pack 285 event! The day started cool but, warmed up, as we blazed trail with Cub Scouts from across the metro Georgia area.  After demonstrations by a mounted search and rescue teams, scouts joined a drum circle and experienced tribal dance and tepee living conditions.  Our Wolves, who are studying the Cherokee and Creek in school, were able to compare lifestyles with those of the Plains Indians.


Other activities included the exploration of fishing boats, BB gun and archery ranges, sling shots, and hikes around the lake.  We enjoyed a picnic lunch as well.


Of course the most fun was the competitive corn hole game!  Divided into teams, we learned that Tiger Den Leader, Sheila Boyd, had the magic "arm" as she tossed for more points than the other players.  Thanks to the other Wolves who joined us for a terrific family event.
