Before the meeting: 

  1. Choose a suitable climbing location based on the Guide to Safe Scouting and Climb On Safely rules. 
  2. Inform parents or legal guardians about the climbing activity in advance. 
  3. If the climbing location provides gear, check its availability and condition. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Conduct a brief training session with Cub Scouts on climbing safety. Emphasize the importance of listening to instructions from the climbing staff. 
  2. Start with a warm-up session to prepare Cub Scouts physically for climbing. Include stretching exercises to prevent injuries. 
  3. Organize Cub Scouts into small groups for rotations. This ensures that everyone gets a chance to climb and rest in between. 
  4. Allow Cub Scouts to decide their comfort level in participating in specific climbing challenges. 
  5. Gather Cub Scouts for a brief reflection on the climbing experience. 

Tip: Contact the location to ask if Cub Scouts can get in for free or at a reduced cost.
