Hello parents and scouts!! I hope everyone had a great time at the Pinewood Derby!!! We have our monthly den meeting this Wednesday, 6-7pm and will be focusing on the Chef's knife elective.
We will have some members of Troop 270 leading this adventure. In this den meeting we'll be doing the following:
Read, understand, and promise to follow the “Cub Scout Knife Safety Rules.”
Demonstrate the knife safety circle.
Demonstrate that you know how to care for and use a kitchen knife safely.
The fourth and final requirement should have heavy parent involvement as it involves slicing, dicing and mincing to create either a fruit salad or salsa.
