Cub Scouts from Dens one two and four and the Webelos staged a Christmas show in Cole Hall. Den 1 presented Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer acted by Harry Sanders who was helped by a Shaftsbury Emergency Room surgical team. Den 2 sang Youd Better Watch Out and pulled a Santa in on a pretend chimney. Santa Jeffrey Ryan struggled with his cotton beard but succeeded on a second try. Den 4 rehearsed with Mrs Mary Moriarty ill and Mrs Elinor Hyjek on the meaning of Christmas using a creche and Silent Night. Webelos aged 10 and 11 sang Frosty the Snowman in a darkened room with plywood snowmen lit by tree lights. The group finished with Jingle Bells as snow men become home gifts. The boys will serenade Putnam Memorial Hospital Sunday and donate gift jars made from baby food jars spray painted and filled with water and flowers for patients.
