Cub Scouts Rule the Village Hall

These 8 young men, ruled the village for 45 minutes on Tuesday night! They came in and took the village board room over and I walked them through how a village board meeting was run.
They made motions, heard public comment, discussed if they should ban the sale of soda throughout the village, (it failed 5-1) and if we should allow a cub scout fundraiser that had Village Resident and troop leader Paul Hollingsworth bungie jumping from the flagpole for $100. At first they thought it was a great idea, until I told them about some of the questions it would raise. (That motion needed the Mayor to break the tie 4-3 to allow the fundraiser). They banged on the gavel and one lucky young man got the key to the village!.
