WEBELO AND BEAR:
Let’s Get to Work!: Scouts will get a very rare opportunity at Heritage: they will perform maintenance on an antique car from 1930! They will change a tire, check the oil, and replace a light and compare it to modern cars. Then scouts will take part in several games and projects with modern and antique tools before completing a project to take home. Completes Webelo Handyman badge and Bear Achievement 20.
Dirt Diggers: Everyone will become a rock hound as we go on a rock, mineral, soil, and fossil hunt throughout Heritage! Along the way we will participate in an I-Spy, perform experiments, play games, and complete several take home projects. Completes Webelo Geologist and Bear Elective 12.
