FHE -Singing Christmas Carols at Highland Manor

Our Cub Scouts took advantage of the opportunity to serve by ringing the bells for the Salvation Army kettle. Devon, Corben and Kye, along with their leaders, Nadine Peterson and Beth King felt the true spirit of Christmas as people reached into their pockets or purses to give to a worthy cause. One gentleman in particular made us realize the impact scouting can have on others. He was a former Cub Scout and asked our boys some questions about Cub Scouts before reaching into his pocket and donating $100 to the Salvation Army. What giving people! Merry Christmas to all!!

McKay Mulitalo received his Arrow of Light. Carl and Deborah Mulitalo of Mesquite 3rd Ward are his parents. Duane Thurston served as Akela. Congratulations McKay!

Movie Night in Mesquite

Mesquite 8th Branch enjoyed a wonderful day at the St George Temple and afterwards enjoyed lunch at Chuck a Rama.

We completed our annual service project at the old Littlefield School on Saturday, November 17. Kye, Devon, and Kenny were joined by a visiting Wolf, Charlie. We pulled weeds, picked up garbage, swept, raked, disposed of dog doo doo, and hauled away all that was gathered. Thanks to our leaders Humberto Baeza, Lois Brown, Nadine Peterson, Denise Lyday, and Mary Cabrera. Thanks also to Ben Davis and his 2 boys. We were able to celebrate with Kenny as he earned his Cyber Chip Recharge and his Bear rank. Everyone made a tunnel of tools for Kenny to pass through representing moving from Bear to Webelos. Refreshments of donuts and apple cider was provided by the Baeza’s.
