Our pack had recently tragically lost our Scout Cubmaster, and through a peculiar set of circumstances find myself taking on a leading role in the pack. I had initially volunteered to be a Den Leader,  taken some initial online training and turned in my application. Coincidentally, the District Commissioner was present at one of our recent meetings, and recommended I put “Cubmaster” on the role form (!). Such a leadership role landed unexpectedly on my head, and there is quite a lot for me to learn and with it a great deal of responsibility. We have a good troop of kids, and I want Scouting for them to be a rewarding experience, thus I must persevere.
