Planning it in DenBuddy starts a new den meeting with this activity already on the agenda, so you can add an opening, a closing and whatever else the night needs.

How to run it

Hide the six items. Each finder must say what it's for before it counts. Then every scout packs

their own set into a gallon bag to take home for the next hike.

What it counts toward

Lion Mountain Lion

  • 1 Identify the Cub Scout Six Essentials. Show what you do with each item.

Tiger Tigers in the Wild

  • 1 Identify the Cub Scout Six Essentials. Show what you do with each item.

Wolf Paws on the Path

  • 1 Identify the Cub Scout Six Essentials. Show what you do with each item.

Build the rest of the meeting around it

Start a meeting in DenBuddy with this activity on the agenda, then let the planner fill the gaps with what your Scouts still need.
