On my honor, I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

Join the Pack in cleaning up one of our favorite places in Eden Prairie, Staring Lake Park! We'll spend 2 hours walking the grounds and cleaning the park. The city provides the gloves and garbage bags, and we bring the crew!
Notes:
-Outdoors - dress for the weather! Bring water & snacks. Good shoes for hiking!
-9am: Meet at the outdoor shelter by warming house/top of sledding hill at 9am. We'll get organized with supplies, teams, buddy system, areas to focus on, have a little (friendly) "trash talk" between teams, then head out!
-9:15-10:30: Pickup as much trash as you can!
-10:30 Return to the shelter to see how much we collected. We'll identify & vote on what group picked up the most trash, the largest piece of trash, the most interesting piece of trash, most colorful, etc. (Feel free to make up categories as you find trash)!
No worries if you have RSVP or not, please join us! Family welcome, the more hands the better!
If you arrive after we have left the shelter, I'll leave supplies there. You can also get more if you fill up your bags! We'll pile up the trash at the shelter before putting in bins.

An Egg Drop is where your scout builds an Egg Safety Harness to see if it can preserve the egg. Hopefully the Cub's engineering skills paid off. When you build your container, plan ahead for the egg's insertion. You can tuck it in ahead of time, or you can insert it right before launch. Either way, use a raw egg - not hard boiled - and put it in a plastic baggy first. That way, should your egg not survive, it won't make a mess. We'll bring a few extra in case anyone forgets their egg. Talk with your den leaders if you need ideas on the Egg Safety Container best practices. Mark Rober has a fun video to watch with your lion before building out their drop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsnyl8llfH4
Egg Safety Harness Guidelines:
Max size is about 8 inches on a side
Drop height will be about 20 feet
Put your egg in a plastic bag.
Clean up afterward
*new* Egg Safety Harness Challenges:
Smallest Safety Harness
Lightest Safety Harness
As always, we want to leave no trace. Den Leaders will guide cubs to clean up after themselves, but please help your cubs pay attention to this important detail.
The location has moved AGAIN to Eden Prairie Hish School - South Commons as the Fire Department is unavailable and inclement weather is forecaster for the evening. We will drop from the top of the stairs/balcony onto the lower level.
