Blithewood Park Clean-Up and Olympics Practice


Cub Scouts from Pack 70 did a terrific job helping to clean up trash at Blithewood Park in Worcester as part of our commitment to community service.

With the Cub Olympics this Saturday, the Scouts then got some coaching from former college decathlete Mr. Linnus. He gave the boys some great pointers in the 50 yard dash, the long jump and discus throwing (with homemade discs made from a log!)

Audobon Hike - Spring Edition of the Four Seasons Hiking Series

Scouts and adults had a great time hiking 3.5 miles at the Broad Meadow Brook Audobon Sanctuary, following the same trails as the previous Fall and Winter hikes.

This time out everyone got to see much more wildlife including frogs, ducks, a beaver, a red-tailed hawk and even a rose-breasted grosbeak. Scouts also learned more about the six principles of Leave No Trace as they're working towards earning that badge.
