Scouts from Chelsea Cub Scout Pack 455 met at an unusual location — the Chelsea City Council chambers — last Wednesday.
The scouts were asked what name they’d like to give their fictitious town and “City of Independence” was chosen. Two mayors and two sets of council members were “elected” through a random draw and all of the scouts learned about the laws of the land seated in spots usually occupied by the Chelsea mayor and city council.
The pack was led by Cub Master Scott Peterson who reminded the first-fifth graders that they always need to follow the rules and obey their parents, their teachers and the scout law.
“A scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.”
