- Mystery Question
A girl has as many brothers as sisters, but each brother has only half as many brothers as sisters. How many brothers and sisters are there in the family?

The first Scout to respond correctly will win one genuine, made in the USA, authentic American dollar bill! Remember to copy a parent or your response will be invalidated and tossed into the virtual waste basket, and you will wander aimlessly through life.

- Canoe Float at Busse Lake – Saturday, May 18
Get ready for a fun day in canoes at Busse Lake. We will explore the lake by canoe and enjoy a delicious shore lunch as part of the day. More information to come soon.

See you at Starved Rock!
