OPENING The assigned den should have either their den chief or a boy from the den lead the opening ceremony, while other boys in the den are assigned either as flag bearers or color guards. Flag ceremonies should be practiced as part of den meetings and before the pack meeting to insure they are polished. Note that the flags may be too heavy for smaller scouts, so please select flag bearers with this in mind and be sure to practice.

SKIT OR SONG The assigned den should prepare a skit or song to provide the entertainment for the meeting. The Internet is full of great ideas, but please be mindful of your audience and keep the “Grandmother Rule” in mind (only present a skit or song that your grandmother would not frown upon). Skits and songs should be prepared ahead of time and practiced as part of prior month’s den meetings. Props, costumes, and creativity are encouraged. Contact the Cubmaster before the meeting if there are any special needs for sound system, sound effects, lighting, etc.

SNACK The assigned den should inform the parents of the scouts about snack assignment for the pack meeting. Please make sure that there is a variety of food and drinks.

CLEANUP  Den members should remain 10 minutes after meeting to restore room to original state.
