The Potty Meeting

On September 26^th, we held what will be forever be known as “The Potty Meeting.”  It was all potty talk, all the time!!  Some would say that we had a real Potty.  We could have pottied till the break of dawn!!   Okay, enough of the potty talk.   

Let's move on to the Potty Toss, our game for Camp Carnival.  A real Sting Sting Sting to our Carpenter Extraordinaire for putting together such a great looking game.  The suggestion was made, and seconded amid much laughter, that anyone needing any practice throws must first holler, "I'm not Potty trained!".  Because, hey, we Scorpions like to include the whole Pack when we have a Potty. 

The level of detail and skill many of the boys showed with the floor plans they submitted to satisfy the Engineer requirement was very impressive.  Many of them also completed a Readyman requirement by developing a fire escape plan for their families.  That's "BE PREPARED" thinking.  These guys are progressing well toward becoming Boy Scouts.

A big thanks goes out to our guest speakers who taught us some Hindi words and showed the boys how to write a few words in Hindi.  Getting right back to the potty theme of the meeting, we especially appreciated the details of the reason why every Indian is right-handed.

Lastly, a special thanks goes out to one of our parents who recently returned from the combat theater with gifts that he bartered for from some of the youths of that region.  I'm sure the boys will treasure them.

Congratulations to our new Whittler and a great job singing by the three boys who had to "renew" their Whittling Chips.

Thanks in advance to "Goose" for involving us in preparing the camp fire and keeping the younger cubs safe at Camp Carnival this weekend.  See you all there.
