June Pack Meeting

At tonights pack meeting we honored Kyler, Tyler, Channing, Michael, Brennan, Austin, and Alex who have all received their Arrow of Light this year after completing their webelos badge. Good job guys, and have fun in scouts!

Very special Thanks to Renon Beasley from the Snow Canyon district Order of the Arrow for coming and presenting an awesome ceremony for our Arrow of Light recipients!

Tonight Bro. Hansen came to our webelos den and taught us how to whip and fuse a rope and we also made REALLY cool neckerchief slides with a "turks knot".

Webelos Artist Activity

For the webelos artist activity the first requirement is to talk to an artist about different occupations in the world. We are lucky enough to have Jared Beckstrand live in our area. Jared is an animator. He has worked on several Disney films including Tarzan, Treasure Planet, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, Pocahontas, The Emperors New Groove, and most recently The Princess and the Frog. We had an awesome den meeting tonight at his house where he explained to us all the work that goes into making an animated film. He even made us our own bouncing ball! Here he shows us a cool picture he drew of President Hinkley that is in his home.

He uses this table with a hole in the middle, plexy glass over it, and a light underneath to be able to see what he's drawn on previous pages. He is creating our bouncing ball here. Then he takes pictures of each page that he drew our ball on and it goes onto his computer...
