By 4th grade scouts Joey, Danny, and Nick

Joey R. demonstrates the perfect stretch with John S. and Danny L. The Panda Den in Pack 55 are not couch potatoes! The 4th grade Webelos Scouts worked on their Athlete Badge at their last den meeting. Mr. Kiley, a local coach, showed the boys how to warm up for exercise. The scouts practiced stretching, push ups, sit ups and agility relays. They learned to be active and stay fit. Stretching is important before sports games so you don't hurt yourself. Each Scout is completing the Athlete badge and must complete a month of excercises to earn the badge. "The goal is not just to get the Athlete badge, but to be healthy and fit," said Coach Kiley.

Ian G. shows amazing effort at sit ups.
