First grade boys interested in joining Lancaster Pack 9 gathered on Saturday to make apple cider from scratch! The families started at Meadowbrook Orchards in Sterling, where owner David Chandler generously supports the Pack by allowing the boys to pick “drops” to start the afternoon activities. The boys then brought their apples over to Cubmaster Mr. Tarver’s house where they washed the apples, ground them into, then pressed out the cider. After a toast to the new Tiger den, everyone went home with at least a half-gallon.
It’s not to late to join the fun! Contact us for information on Pack 9!
Asst. Cubmaster Jason Arquitt supervises while the boys press cider. Others pour fresh cider into jugs in the background.
