PEAK (Pears Encouraging Abstinent Kids) Amber Frei,
Kaylee Uhlenkott, Kyle Holthaus and David Sigler presented the PEAK program,
a state-approved curriculum encouraging kids to make wise choices.
Most of the 8th grade students at Grangeville Middle School choose to participate
in the program. Over the course of four sessions, these four students shared
valuable information, personal experiences, and helped students practice
ways to resist negative peer pressures. The feedback from teachers
and students was very positive. Amber, Kaylee, Kyle and David need
to be commended for their commitment and dedication and for their willingness
to share their time in an effort to make a difference.

On Tuesday, Nov. 18, the Webelos and Bear Den of Cub
Scout Pack 638 had the opportunity to visit the Sheriff’s office in Grangeville.Stephanie
showed the boys how dispatch worked and how they monitor the courthouse
area. They were unable to go down and see the jail area as they were taking
care of a situation. Instead the boys got to check out John Nida’s police
car. They like the new style of flares that they have, and of course the
sirens. They are planning to go back over and learn more about what law
enforcement does.Also Pack 638 collected Teddy Bears for a two week period
and gave them to the Sheriff’s Department. The bears will be used by officers
to take to homes as something to comfort children in an uncomfortable situation.
The Scouts want to thank Prairie Elementary School and Prairie High School
for their donations.
This also tied in with their November theme, “Seeds
of Kindness.” Pictured in back are Webelos Jordan Bowles and Phillip Spencer
. Bear Den members in front from left are Anthony Karel, Jon Bradley and
Hunter Chaffee.
