Cub Scouts in Pack 218 celebrated the birthday of Cub
Scouting on Sunday, Feb. 15 in Exeter.
The scouts opened the evening with a flag ceremony led by
Webelos Scout Ben Bartu. A prayer for the food was led by Braden Capek.
The scouts and guests enjoyed a meal and then had a Friends
of Scouting presentation by Jayne Jensen and Cornhusker Council District
Director Jerad Reimers.
Braden Capek and Ben Bartu, both Webelos 2 scouts, had
crossed over to Boy Scouts in a ceremony earlier in the afternoon. They
both received all 20 of the activity pins, their second church award and the
arrow of light award which is the highest award in Cub Scouting.
The Webelos scouts had picked a theme of Legos and the
scouts had made numerous decorations that involved Legos including lantern Lego
heads, Lego brick candy and crayons along with scarf slides that had 218 on
them out of Legos.
The boys performed the Lego movie theme song adapting it to
reflect the fact that “Cub Scouts are awesome,” before receiving their rank
awards.
Receiving the bear rank were Josh Meyer, Tyler Due, Troy
Kallhoff, Devin Harrison, Draven Payne and Mikey Bartu. The scouts
receiving their Tiger Cub rank were Carver Kanode, Logan Krupicka, Ronnie
Babula and Wyatt Hale.
The scouts looked forward to the highlight of the evening,
the Pinewood Derby Race. Lance Larsen and Robert Rhodes were racemasters
for the evening. They directed the scouts in the race and judged the show
portion of the evening.
The show results included modified winners: Logan Krupicka,
first, Troy Kallhoff, second and Ronnie Babula, third. In the stock show
Braden Capek came in first with Mikey Bartu in second and Tyler Due in
third.
The race was exciting and the top six winners raced to see
who would be the fastest. Overall in race Josh Meyer finished first
beating out Tyler Due and Braden Capek.
