March Round Table Notes - April Activities

Here are the notes from March's Round Table!  Again, let me know if this format is working or not!

Just found out from Mrs Evi Fyffe:

My husband just took my kids down to Home Depot and their project for the kids club is making a bird feeder. If you have any Bears, this passes off Achievemnet 5B. They are super cool and easy to make! It will also be easy and cheap to copy to make with a Den!


Good information that was shared on our facebook page!  Are you on FB yet???

Bear Trail Tracking Sheet

Evi Fyffe was willing to share her Bear Tracking spreadsheet!  I have emailed it to all my Den Leaders on my contacts, but for those who didn't get it here is a link.

Interfaith - Faith

Needs

You need enough happiness to keep you serene;

Enough troubles to make you strong;

Enough suffering to make you human;

Enough hopes to keep you optimistic;

Enough failures to keep you humble;

Enough success to keep you confident;

Enough friends to give you comfort;

Enough enthusiasm to make you dare boldly;

Enough faith to banish depression;

Enough love to keep you young in heart;

Enough time to sing your joy;

And enough peace to keep you happy.
