On our way to the next activity of the night



Meet Britney (the snake) from the Traveling Reptile Show


Everyone learned that snakes are nice animals and had a chance to pet or...



.... hold one.



For our last event we all had to pretend we were Dinosaurs to blend in with the other Dinosaurs.  We were on a Dinosaur Hunt!


The Dinosaurs jumped out from all over!



Dinosaurs were all over the place!


Learning about Dinosaur Fossils and how the Royal Tyrrell Museum takes care of them.


As we slept the Dinosaurs swam through our dreams.

Bottle Drive Results



Our Bottle Drive was great success. We were able with the help of all of our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts to turn a few bags of bottles and cans into this.



After about three hours of work we had collected all of our bottles and the final count showed that we actually collected close double what we collected back in October 2008. To show our gratitude we treated everyone who helped a free entry pass to the Scout Beach Bash at West Edmonton Mall Water Park that evening.



A big thank you to all of you who helped make this Bottle Drive one of our best.

Meeting April 15th




It is nice to see the snow melt and see the green return. I hope everyone has had time to take advantage of the warm weather we had this past long weekend. As the snow melts and flows to the river it is getting to that time again for the older beavers to swim-up to Cubs. This week we will spend some time with the Cubs to see what they do and to see how much fun they have.

We will be meeting at the Parkallen School at 6:30 PM. We may go outside if the weather is warm, so please dress for the outdoors.
