Blue and Gold Banquet: A traditional February celebration in Cub Scout packs to mark the anniversary of Scouting America (founded Feb 8, 1910).
Significance: Blue represents truth, spirituality, and steadfast loyalty; Gold represents sunlight, warmth, and happiness.
A classic Cub Scout activity where Scouts build small boats and race them in a long, narrow water track, often made from rain gutters filled with water. The boats are powered by the Scout blowing through a straw or puffing air, not by pushing the boat.
Scouts build a small wooden car from an official kit, usually with help from an adult. The goal is to design, build, and decorate a car, then race it down a sloped track powered only by gravity.
