Braided Yarn

 

Cubmaster holds up two four-foot lengths of yarn, one blue, and one gold. He explains that the blue represents boys, the gold, parents.

CUBMASTER: By itself, neither of these strands is very strong. I think a couple of strong Cub Scouts could break either one. (Call forward two Cub Scouts and ask them to wind cord into a single rope).

Together the two strands make a rope that is more than twice as strong as either one alone. There's a lesson in that for us: if our pack is to be strong, both boys and parents must do their part.
