Do you know the part of the scout oath where we promise to do our best to keep ourselves physically strong? What do you think that means? What are some of the ways you keep yourself physically strong? Did you say exercise? Yes, that's part of it. Did you also say eating healthy? If so, then YES! You’re right. A healthy well balanced diet is a BIG part of keeping ourselves physically strong! Our bodies need the right fuel to give us the energy we need for all our scouting adventures!

As scouts one of the skills we learn is how to plan a nutritious meal, and we even learn skills to help us prepare or cook a snack or a meal for our den or our family! This month we are working on our RUNNING WITH THE PACK adventure. We will learn more about eating healthy and will even help plan a meal! If all this talk about food is making you hungry, then grab a snack and a water bottle and let's get started!
