OUR 4 FATHERS

One Cub acts as teacher, others as students.

Teacher: Today class, we are going to learn about the American Revolution.  More than 200 years ago our forefathers defeated the British army in the revolutionary war.

Student 1: They defeated the whole army?

Teacher: Yes!

Student 2: Our four fathers?

Teacher: Yes! Isn’t that exciting?

Student 3: Yeah! They must have been really strong if it only took four of them to defeat a whole army!

Song: The Cub Scout Pack Song (Tune: You’re a Grand old Flag)

We’re a Cub Scout pack, we’re a high-flying pack;

Down the trail of Akela we go.

From Wolf to Bear to We-be-los,

As into good Scouters we grow.

Every Cub is true to the gold and the blue,

And he never forgets the fact

That all the fun a boy could want

He can find in the Cub Scout pack.
