A TREE IS A GOOD SCOUT CLOSING CEREMONY

A TREE IS A GOOD SCOUT CLOSING CEREMONY

Circle Ten Council

Personnel:  6 Cubs and a narrator

Equipment: Each Cub hold a picture or drawing of a tree with his section of text on the back.

Cub # 1              Did you ever pause to think about how helpful a tree is?

Cub # 2              It provides a nesting place for birds, shade from the sun, and protection from the rain.

Cub # 3              It discards its dead branches, thus providing wood for building fires and for cooking food.

Cub # 4              A tree adds beauty to the countryside and to camping areas.

Cub # 5              We must admit that a tree gives a lot more than it receives.

Cub # 6              We can learn a lesson from the tree, by doing our best to always be helpful to others and by putting our fellow Scouts first and ourselves second.

Narrator:     Remember the lesson we learn from the tree - To give to others more than we receive.
