 * February 14th, 2012**

On Tuesday, February 14, the Tiger Cubs of Monroe Elementary invited UW-Manitowoc news staff to learn about the news and how it is made. These 1st graders, led by Scout leaders, Jeremy and Jessica Maes, met with Laura Apfelbeck, the advisor to news staff members, and two students, Charlie Larson and Cindy Gruett, who taught the Tiger Cubs the ins and outs of the news world.

Tiger Cubs introduces first grade boys to the scouting program. Scouts meet with an adult partner weekly to do activities centered around family and fun. Aidan Cox likes to do fun projects. Colin Hernet and his dad enjoyed being in the Christmas parade.

News staff talked about the evolution of newspapers, how newspapers were put together before the advent of computers. Boy Scouts learned about old-fashioned type setting and used rubber stampers to set up a sentence backwards. this event was the last of five required "go see its" according to scout leader Jessica Maes, so they will get their Tiger Scout badge. **‘SEARCH, DISCOVER, SHARE’** media type="custom" key="12520078" Photos by Cindy Gruett
