Banquet Decorations

The boys should be involved in making banquet decorations. They should be simple and not time-consuming to make. Use the banquet theme as a guideline for decorations.

Plan in advance who will make what items. There should be coordination between den leaders, den leader coach, and B&G Committee, so that each den will be making generally the same items.

Things boys might make are:
