Guidebook Hey Scout! My name is
Baloo the Bear! Have
fun exploring the
different stations today
and keep the outing in
scouting!
HAVE FUN!
Welcome To Cub-o-Rama!
Today is all about keeping the “outing in
scouting”. While 2020 kept everyone indoors,
restricted scout meetings, and canceled cub
scout summer camp, let 2021 be a year to get
you active and excited about scouting again!
Use this guidebook as a “map” of your day
today! From fishing to a nature scavenger hunt
to completing 2 elective belt loops, and so much
more! This is your passport for Cub-O-Rama.
A Scout is honest. As you complete each sec-
tion in you guidebook, have your parent or
guardian initial the activity completed to bring
back to your den leader to mark in Scoutbook.

ronment as a scout!
