In den meetings the third week of September, the Lion/Tiger den discussed knights' codes of conduct, designed their own shields of cardboard, built Duplo castles, and did some "jousting" among themselves. The Wolf/Bear den discussed how technology can make our lives better, and made some Rice Krispie treats! The Webelos/AOL den, meanwhile, designed shelters out of Lincoln logs, practiced knot tying, and designed paper airplanes.

In mid-September den meetings, the Lion/Tiger den identified foods belonging in the different food groups, practiced hand washing, and discussed personal fitness. Meanwhile, the Wolf/Bear den went on a walk discovering natural resources, talked about how they are used (such as water!), and built an in-home composter out of 2 liter bottles. Lastly, the Webelos/AOL den discussed the connections between early humans and nature in different parts of the world, experimented with sparklers and learned about the chemistry involved, and conducted a brief scavenger hunt.

In mid-September, Pack 23 took a fun and educational trip to the Allegheny County Sanitary Authority (ALCOSAN). There, the Scouts went magnet fishing, drove a robot that detects clogs, looked at micro-organisms under a microscope, learned about lab safety, and took a tour of the water treatment plant. A great day was had by all!

In den meetings at the beginning of September, the Webelos/AOL den reviewed the Scout Oath and talked about what goes into making a person physically strong. As part of that, they played physically active games for most of the meeting and finished off with some relaxation exercises. Meanwhile, the Tigers, Wolves, and Bears talked about the Scout Oath and Law, practiced the Scout handshake, and did their best! The younger den also brainstormed and drew different symbols of our country, and finished off the meeting with a relay race.

In Pack 23's last regular den meetings of the academic year, Scouts gathered together to look at the new memorial in Memorial Park to soldiers from Edgewood who made the ultimate sacrifice, in conflicts since WWII.
