Gives Goodwill (Citizenship and Service) Pack Meeting Plan
About the Gives Goodwill Citizenship and Service Theme)
The Gives Goodwill meeting plan features ideas for the value of citizenship – games, group activities, songs, and more. This theme has an emphasis on the importance of serving others in need.
Here is how the BSA plan suggests tying together this theme with the value of citizenship:
Cub Scouts learn about the true spirit of Scouting this month as they show an act of goodwill by being good citizens providing a service for someone in need during the colder months. Citizenship means contributing service and showing responsibility to local, state, and national communities. By helping fellow citizens in our local community, we remember the Law of the Pack and what it means when we say “gives goodwill.”
