Before the meeting:

  1. Find a location within walking distance of your meeting location that includes possible barriers to access. This may be a curb or narrow door that impedes a wheelchair or traffic walk signs without a beeping noise to indicate when to walk.
  2. Notify parents and legal guardians of the den meeting time and location. 

During the meeting:

  1. Share with Cub Scouts that they will be taking pictures of areas that they believe could be an impediment to a person with a physical disability. If they are checking for access have them shuffle their feet, if they can’t get somewhere that way, this may be a problem for someone in a wheelchair or that has other mobility challenges.
  2. Take Cub Scouts on a 30-minute walk and take pictures of items they think are barriers to access.
  3. Have Cub Scouts share their pictures and make suggestions for changes that would remove barriers to access.
