At 9 am, Akela called the meeting to order. The meeting started with the formation of the horse-shoe. Samuel Chin led the flag-raising ceremony. This was his first time leading the ceremony and all went well. Sean Lee did the flag break. Good job, Samuel and Sean.
Next, it was time to award Proficiency Badges to the Cubs who had earned them.

After awarding the badges, it was time to announce the new leaders of the pack, ie Senior Sixer, Assistant Senior Sixer, Sixers amd Assistant Sixers. All of them had attended a gruelling 3 days 2 nights Sixers Training Camp over the National Day weekend at Sembawang Terror Sea Scout Camp. Despite the rigorous training, no one gave up. Well done, Cubs!
As the PSLE was just around the corner, P6s Cubs could not attend today's Handover Ceremony. Everyone was eager to find out the new Senior Sixer, Asst. Sn Sixer, Sixers and Asst. Sixers.

As the Six had changed in composition, the Cubs retreated to their own corners to get to know their new members and to play some simple games.
Akela and Grey Wolf demonstrated how to tie a REEF KNOT and CLOVE HITCH. The Cubs then regrouped in their own corners, with the newly appointed Sixers and Asst. Sixers guiding their members on the REEF KNOT and CLOVE HITCH. The new leaders had learnt this at the Sixers Training Camp. Most did a great job SHARING their experience and knowledge.

First, you pull the string.......
It was time to test the Cubs' knowledge of knotting. Akela briefed the Cubs on the knot-tying game.
Cubs had to take turns tying a Clove Hitch and be verified by Akela, Baloo, Bagheera, Grey Wolf or Jin Hao (ex-Pelican). The first Six to complete the task wins.
The next game involved tying a Reef Knot.
1st Round Clove Hitch
1st Wallaby (30 pts)
2nd Possum (20 pts)
3rd Wombat (10 pts)
2nd Round Clove Hitch
1st Wallaby (30 pts)
2nd Wombat (20 pts)
3rd Koala (10 pts)
Reef Knot
1st Wombat (30 pts)
2nd Platpus (20 pts)
3rd Bilby (10 pts)
Wombat appears to be quite proficient in knots. Well done, girls! Must be all the knitting practise!
Before Sunset Paty, Akela distributed consent forms for next week's exciting activity - a day hike on Pulau Ubin. Cubs are to report at 8 am and return by 5 pm. They were also reminded that a reply was required, by 18th August, even if they were not going on this activity. Cubs who were absent could get consent forms from Ms Tan at the General Ofice, Pigeon Hole 1.
Akela also reminded the Cubs on the essential things to bring along, especially 2 ltrs of water, as there was no potable drinking water on the hike trail.
The meeting ended with the Sunset Party, followed by Sixers' Council. Akela reviewed the roles and responsibility of a Sixer, and re-enforced the S-I-X-E-R values.
