Newtonville Cub Pack On dune 14,15 and 16 the Newtonville Cubs joined with othen Cubs in our District for the annual Cuboree at Mary- dale Park. We knew the weather wasn't going to be perfect when the District "Rainmaker"~ appeared at the camp on Thursday right and immediately it started to nain. The nain dn't dampen the spirits of the young campers though. Friday night was basically setthing in and getting organ- ized. The Pack joined with 1st Orono for a campfire after which everyone enjoyed hot dogs and hot chocolate. The cubs retired for the night about 10:30 but didn't go to sleep for some time after. Saturday everyone was up early and anxious to start on the day's activities. After breakfast, exercises and in- spection the cubs went on an egg carton hunt. The cubs were given an egg carton with a different colored paper in the bottom of each section. The object was to find a natural article to match each color. We are convinced some of the cubs are color blind. Lunch was, to say the least, a complete wash out. It was planned that lunch would be cooked by the cubs on an open fire but when the heavens opened u we had to resort to the relia ble Coleman stove. During the afternoon's downpour the cubs busied themselves with a craft pre- pared by Mrs. Adams and Mrs. Mercz. The cubs and leaders enjoyed the activity very much. The rain let up enough that the boys were able to go on a scavenger hunt. There was a definite shortage of pennies but an ample supply of leaders or cubs with a smile. For awhile we thought John Osborne and Jeff Lambert had packed it in and went home. They were deter- mined not to come back without everything on their list no matter how long it took them. The rains continued well into the evening washing out the planned campfire. How- ever, songs and skits were held under canvas and plas- tic (thanks to Pat Gardner) and Mrs. McOuat took us on a "hippie hunt". The night's activities ended with hot chocolate and donuts. Sunday everyone slept a little longer. After a good breakfast and exercises the cubs prepared for Chapel. Again the rains came down and everyone went to Hill- crest's. campsite for Chapel under plastic. After Chapel, 1st. Newtonville had a balloon release. Each cub and leader let a balloon, with his name on plastic tag, go. When last seen they went in -a north easterly direction. We are hoping for replies very soon. Before camp ended, awards were made to the cubs and thanks given to the parents on hand. The sun was shining brightly - a good way to end a great friendship camp. The camp ended the year's activities for 1st Newtonville. The camp was a great success only because every parent was out to help in some way or another. From the Cubs and leaders - many thanks. Leaders are: Lynda Will- sher, Theo Welter, Bob McOuat, Glenn Martell, Les Caswell and Bob Willsher. Camp helpers were: Mr. and Mrs. Adams, Mr. and Mrs. Angi, Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Chrys- ler, Mr. and Mrs. Gardner, Mr. and Mrs. McOuat, Mr. and Mrs. Mercz, Mr. and Mrs. Osborne, Mrs. Talsma, Mrs. Welter and Mrs. Wensvoort.
