Cub Scout Summer excursions

In the summer we held Cub Scouts just once a month.  We used this opportunity while the boys were out of school to visit some museums.

Poplar has a small museum which also houses the old once used jail. 

On the grounds is this monument of a famous chief.  It is located right in front of the Ft. Peck College bookstore.

          Wolf Point also has a museum.  It is much larger and has a wonderful display of memorabilia including pioneer, native Indian, cowboy and even some from Poplar High School.

 The volunteers

there were very 
helpful and the boys were courteous

In order to help complete some Webelo requirements, we did a 3 mile hike.  Beginning at the Ron Shanks parents home near Brockton (13 miles) we walked down a farm road 1.5 miles to the banks of the Missouri river. We are our sack lunches and observed wild life and evidence of it. The boys were great even on the return trip when we got rained on.

On our ride back to Poplar, is when we broke the  new to the boys that we were being moved to Colstrip and this would be about our last activity with them.  I don't think it sunk in quiet yet.
