Rudy, the Red-Nosed Cub Scout Rudy, the red-nosed Cub Scout, Had a very runny nose; And if you ever saw it, You would prob ly say, Oh, Gross! All of the other Cub Scouts Used to look and say, Oh, Ick!; Parents wouldn t go near Rudy, Cause they thought they would get sick. Then one winter s Pack Meeting, Akela said, Sign s Up! . Rudy, with your nose so wet, A box of Kleenex is what you ll get! Then all the Cub Scouts cheered him, As he blew and blew and blew; Rudy, the red-nosed Cub Scout, We will Do Our Best with you! Last Christmas, I asked for 2 "good natured" Dads to volunteer. Naturally all the boys begged and pleaded for their dads to come forward. I sat the dads down in a chair and gave them a Santa hat to wear and told them that they would be our Santas for the Pack Meeting. I called their boys forward and pulled out a can of shaving cream and lipstick for each of them. They then gave their fathers a beard, and a rosy nose and cheeks. It brought the house down! Kids at Cub age seem to enjoy seeing adults being humiliated. As my SE said one time, "When you get involved with Cub Scouting, you learn to check your dignity at the door".
