Searching to find all these places and people will be a man-sized piece of
work. When you have discovered them you will be able to do more to put Cub
Scout Promise into action by helping people with directions. You will also have
started to understand what to do in an emergency. If you see an accident, a fire, or
some criminals at work, you should contact one of the Emergency Services as
follows:
Police – protect people, detect crime, control traffic, and protect property. Phone
919 or 911 and ask for Police, or phone a Police Station
.
Fire-Brigade – fight fire, rescue people, pump out flooded buildings. Phone 919 or
911 ask for Fire Brigade.
.
Ambulance – takes people to hospital when they are sick or have been in an
accident. Phone 919 or 911 ask for Ambulance.

If the service is close by, go straight there. If the service is far, make a
phone call from a public phone box or go to a shop, office or private house and ask
them to make the call. If you make the call, tell them where you are calling from
and what kind of service you require. This is in case your call is cut off; the
emergency service will know where to find you for more details.
Every Cub Scout should know his way around his home area and his Cub
Scout meeting place. Why not make a sketch map showing all the necessary
points for Akela.

For deeper involvement in exploring try for the Explorer Badge.

9. COLLECTING

MAKE A COLLECTION OF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING: STAMPS, COINS,
POSTCARDS, BOTTLE TOPS, PICTURES, ETC. ARRANGE THEM NEATLY
WITH LABELS

Collecting things help you learn about all kinds of different things. For
example: stamp and postcard collecting can help you learn about other countries.
There are special albums in which to put stamp collections, which has become a
world-wide hobby. Perhaps you will gain some pen-friends in other countries. Your
collection could become valuable if you collect the right kind of stamps.

Collections of other items: coins, pictures, bottle tops, etc; can be laid out on
card with labels naming the items with date found and other information. If another
Cub Scout is collecting, perhaps you could swap items you both have more of.

There is a Collectors badge, find out about it.
