Leith Honning was absent when picture was taken. CUB PACK 131 The success of a Cub pack depends on the dedication of the adult leaders, cooperation and support of the parents, and the enthusiasm of the boys. Den mothers must be close enough to activities to see that the Cub Scouts and parents are getting everything they should from scouting. She must do more than just be at home when the den meets. Her positive, mature attitude gives leadership to the den. The job of den leader coach is to encourage and assist the experienced den mother and to train the new den mother. Leith Honning (3 years) and Mary Pollock (2 years) are resigning after some very fruitful and rewarding years. Betty Douglas (2 years) and JoAnne Houghton (1 year) will be working I with their dens another year. Priscilla Balchunas (3 years) will stay with the pack as den leader coach. The basic reason for the whole scouting organization is to mal e a difference in the kind of man a boy will grow to be. These mothers hope that through their efforts the boys will understand the broad objectives of the Boy Scouts of America. These objectives are: Character Development, Citizenship Training, and Mental and Physical Fitness. PROMOTER . . .
