Thanks to everyone who came to the picnic today despite the wind! It was a really good time and it was wonderful to get to know everyone a little better!
We have such a great group of boys in our den.
Each time I am with them, I am so pleased to see how well behaved the are all.
That speaks volumes about what a great group of parents we have as well!
Thank you to Daniel and his family for bringing all of the hot dogs and fixings. (and to Mrs. Olivia for cooking out in the wind!)
It was fun to meet your brother, uncle and dad!
Thank you to Patrick and his family for bringing all of the chips! I enjoyed your sister Autumn too, I am glad she could come.
Thank you Ryan for always being so willing to help!
Your games were a lot of fun!
Thanks to Keegan for bring the puddings and the other goodies.
A BIG thanks to the dads for leading the scavenger hunt out in the wind!

Happy Veteran's Day!


We give a big Cub Scout salute to all of the Military families in our den, and to all of the men and women who have served our country past and present!


Parents, please take a moment today and talk to your Tigers about what it means to be a Veteran. Also, encourage them to thank our Military men and women when ever you are out in public and see them. It always means a lot to them to be thanked for their selfless service to our great country!


We are truly the land of the free because of the brave!

God bless our Veterans!

Welcome Tigers and Tiger families!!




Welcome Tigers!

I though a good way to keep everyone up to date was to set up a blog.

On the right you will find a list of our upcoming events, a reminder of the shared leadership sections you signed up for, links for some great scout related websites and my e-mail contact. You will also find a list titled "Tiger achievements - work in progress". Here you can always check to see what section of the Tiger hand book our den is working on!

Every week, I will also try to post some fun ideas for crafts, games, recipes and songs you can work on at home.


As we take pictures at the meetings and events, I will add a slide show of pictures as well!


Please try to check in here at least once a week to keep you up to date with what is new in our Tiger-riffic den!

G-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O Tigers!!!
