Quote:  We are glad YOU are going to be a Cub Scout. Boy are you going to have fun! You like to play games, don’t you? Well you came to the right place. Cub Scouts play lots of games. Making things is OK with you too. With the Cub Scouts you can make boats, airplanes, Indian suits, and other things you like.  It’s fun to make believe. Cub Scouts in their meetings make believe they are cowboys, Indians, airplane pilots, firemen, policemen, and other interesting men.
