TIGER CUB GRADUATION

PERSONNEL: Tiger Cubs and Parents, Cubmaster, Assistant Cubmaster

EQUIPMENT: Tiger Cub Graduation props, Tiger Cub Graduation certificates and patches and gift for coordinator.

Arrangement: Graduation prop, certificates and patches are on table at center stage. Cubmaster and Assistant Cubmaster stand behind the prop. A single candle in a holder is lit from which the other candles will be lit.

CUBMASTER: Tonight, we have some Cubs who are graduating from the Tiger Cub program and will continue along the Scouting trail into the Cub Scout program. Will the graduating Tigers and their parents please come forward. (Tigers and parents come forward and line up behind the table with the parents standing directly behind their son.)

For the past few months you and your family have explored all sorts of new and exciting things and places. In Tiger Cubs you had your own motto: "Search, Discover, Share". (Lights first candle - orange).

You and your adult partner have searched out new activities in your home and community. You have learned how people work together and have fun together. (Lights second candle - black.)

You both have discovered that by doing things together with friends and family you feel a sense of being part of a great family, community and country. (Lights third candle - orange.)

The things you have searched out and discovered have been shared with your family, friends, and fellow Tiger Cubs. Now it is time to move along the Scouting trail to the next part of the program.

In Cub Scouting, you will have a new motto: "Do Your Best" and your colors will be blue (Lights blue candle) and gold (Lights gold or yellow candle). Your family is still important as it is throughout your whole Scouting experience. Support in earning each badge comes from your family as well as your Den Leader.

ASST. CM: We would like to present each of you with a Tiger Cub Graduation Certificate and a Tiger Cub Graduation patch. (Presents both while calling the boys name.) We would also like to present your Tiger Cub Coordinator with this special gift. (Presents gift.)

CUBMASTER: Welcome to Pack _____. We hope you enjoy our Pack meeting tonight.
