Warren Cub Scouts Pack 182 - "COURTEOUS - Cubs in Shining Armor"

Warren Cub Scouts learned about Courtesy and Taekwondo at their November Pack Meeting.

Warren Cub Scout Pack 182 held their monthly meeting on Tuesday November 29th at the Mount Horeb School. The topic for this month’s meeting was “Courteous – Cubs in Shining Armor” where the boys learned more about being courteous, one of the twelve tenets of the Scout Law.

Our special guest, Leo Sanchez of Impact Martial Arts in Warren Township explained the 5 tenets of Taekwondo: "courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control and indomitable spirit." He taught the Scouts some basic moves of Taekwondo including kicks and punches which they got to practice and then they enjoyed a demonstration which included participation by a few of our scouts who have been studying Taekwondo with Mr. Sanchez.

The second part of the Pack meeting included the distribution of earned Recognitions and Advancements, as well as Prizes earned by top selling Scouts during our annual Popcorn Fundraiser this fall.
