PAGE SIX BY JOAN KINGSBURY Scout Packs hold a meeting, ~ the boys’ mothers provide refresh- ment. Later this month, Den 4 of Gate of Heaven Church will take a turn at providing the goodies with just one difference; the boys have been baking for a month in preparation for their pack meeting. Den 4 consists of five boys: Michael Andrusis, David Fitch, Joseph Kristan, David Wojcie- chowski and Eric Yaz- winsky. Carol Kristan is den mother. Michael’s mom Martha Andrusis, a home economics teacher, has been giving the boys some helpful hints on food preparation. For their refreshments, the boys have planned a delightful menu: Curry Dip served with fresh vegetable dippers, Blue- berry Muffins, Cheese- cake Cupcakes, and every kid’s favorite, Knox Blox. The boys are sharing their recipes with our readers this week. This is Carol’s first year as a den mother and she is enjoying it. The boys have completed a wide variety of projects and have gone on interesting field trips. Following a nature hike in the fall (when the boys collected dried wheat, pine cones and other pretty weeds) they made a dried flower arrange- ment for their mothers. They also decorated clay pots for Thanksgiving, then planted the aloe vera plant, which the Indians used for medicinal pur- poses. At Christmas time the boys made pencil holders for their dads and candle holders for their mothers. Field include visiting the Children’s Museum, where the boys learned how a voting machine works; a visit to the Citizen’s Voice, to see how a newspaper is put together; a field trip to the game commission, and a big field trip at the end of the year to a large city like New York. For their Blue and Gold Dinner, the boys made placemats, corsages, namecards and nutcups. They also held a rocket race using homemade rockets. Again this year the den will hold a bicycle rodeo. At the bicycle rodeo, using a machine from AAA, each participant has his bike completely inspected checking the brakes, and spokes. Then the participants can ride a small obstacle course just for fun. Each participant BE 3) a) Dallas. in- receives a certificate at the end of the rodeo. has working all year long.
