scouts

den mother
Robert (Bobby) came in from school one night and asked me if I would be a den mother for the Cub Scouts, I said that I would. I had no idea what I was getting into. So in a few days he came home with about 8 to 10 boys for me to entertain, and I did not have a thing for them to do. I got then playing games and when the hour was up they did not want to go home, by the next week I was prepared for them. I finely got some bats and balls together and got me a pretty good ball team. We would go to the recreational center to practice on their ball diamond.
Bobby had an infection in his leg and his leg was put in a cast for the summer but he could sure hit the ball. So I would have him bat and when he hit the ball he would hobble to first base then I would put another boy in to run for him. We made a good showing at the tournament anyway.
