Muscle Building

ARRANGEMENT: Seven boys come on stage, carrying various kinds of muscle-building equipment. They use the equipment and in turn, speak the line below.

1ST CUB: To keep your body strong and healthy,

Is more valuable than being wealthy.

2ND CUB: When you are fit, you feel so good,

And try to do the things you should.

3RD CUB: It helps you lend a helping hand,

To needy folks around our land.

4TH CUB: Eating the right food is always wise,

And everyone needs some exercise.

5TH CUB: Stand on tip toes, one, two, three,

Touch your toes, don't bend a knee.

6TH CUB: Run a while, then slow your pace,

Practice will help you win the race.

7TH CUB: Scouting builds young boys into men,

And this is where it all begins.

Step Over

PERSONNEL: Three Cub Scouts, one dressed neatly and the other two dressed sloppily and looking tired and bored.

CUB #1: (Drags himself on stage, looking tired, bored and meets the sharply dressed Cub. #2) Say, am I ever tired. I wish I could be in shape. I'm so weak I don't know what to do.

CUB #2: I have something that will get you into shape physically and mentally. Take the first step into my program and into shape by stepping over the line.

CUB #1: (Steps over the line, and becomes alert, bright and athletic)

CUB #3: (Walks in dragging, tired and meets #1 and #2.) I'm so bored. I have done everything there is and nothing is left. I miss the challenges.

CUB #2: I have something that will challenge you, train you, coach you and develop you both physically and mentally. Just step over the line.

CUB #3: (Steps over the line and becomes bright, alert and athletic)

CUB #1 and #3 (TOGETHER) What is this program we stepped into that gives us this energy, strength and really challenges us?

CUB #2: It's… It's… It's (hold up a sign that reads "Cub Scouting") Cub Scouting!!!
