+SeabeckTribe Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I am a Bear (9yr olds) Den leader for my church Cub Scouts. I have been talking to them about Geocaching. They are excited to go and find the ones I hide around the church. As leaders, we have planned Caching Pack Meeting on August 8th at 6 pm at Schold Farms in Silverdale, Wa. I am looking to my fellow caching buddies who are willing to come out and help them. You would be willing to let them use your GPS and give them guidence when they are looking and replacing. You would be with a Cub Scout [8, 9, or 10 yr old] and his family. I am hoping to get enough cachers to help out so they all have a positive experience and hopefully become future Geocachers. Each Cub Scout will be assigned two caches to do in the park then they can return to the parking area. If you are interested, please email me at jazmat05@gmail.com with the subject line: Cub Scouts Geocaching. Quote Link to comment

+MtnMutt-ProDuckShins Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Have you checked with your local Boy Scout Troops? Several requirements now include task with GPS. So, within the Troop you will find several who know or do Geocaching. If they help out they can add those hours to their Service Hours. WEBELOS who start checking out troops can find a Troop that does things with GPS. Also check with the Roundtable Commissioners, District Ex, and of course your council office. Good luck & safe Scouting, MtnMutt Quote Link to comment
+ruck Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Can't commit at this point, but there's a chance Bunygrl and I can be there. Depends on a kid drop and when I get back into town. Hope you took MtnMutt's advice and checked with your associated troop. Building bonds between troop and pack are of the utmost importance and need to be utilized at EVERY opportunity. The rewards won't be reaped until later, but make a gigantic difference. Quote Link to comment
