Scouting Fear Factor - Part 1

On Sunday, the Cub Scouts had a special "Fear Factor" day. It began with Karl's Wolf Den raising the flag and recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. Joanie, one of the Bear Den Leaders began to explain the rules of the day. All scouts, and siblings who were willing, were expected to be grossed out but have fun in the process. Please note, only two guppies were harmed in the day's events and gross names were give to normal foods.

The First event was a slimy fish relay. The two teams had to pass fish over and under down the line with the final person running back to the beginning until all children had partaken of the first in line position. The first person in line had to grab one of the fish from the big bucket to begin the relay.

Isabella being her typical self, was dressed in girly fashion but participated in every event.
She did not was to miss out on the fun.

The next event was a guppy relay. A person had to fish out a guppy and transport it to the other water container about 20 yards away. Once completed they had to tag the next one for their turn.

Anton has improved his squeamishness! But not completely!

He commented on the yuck factor!
