Some skit examples from www.macscouter.com:
Two campers are walking through the forest when they suddenly encounter a grizzly bear! The bear rears up on his hind legs and lets out a terrifying roar. They're both frozen in their tracks. The first camper whispers, "I'm sure glad I wore my running shoes today." "It doesn't matter what kind of shoes you're wearing, "I don't have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun YOU," he answers.
Earwash Patrol of scouts line up facing audience. One announces that this is the Earwash Skit. Scout at end of the line drinks a glass of water. He puts his hands on his ears and shakes his head. Then he pretends to spit the water into the ear of the scout next to him. Repeat this process until the Scout at the end of the line shakes his head. This Scout spits out some water onto the ground. This requires a scout who can hold water in his mouth and not be noticed. -- Thanks to Bryan Tolcser, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, Troop 522, East Schodack, New York
The Lighthouse Story A lighthouse keeper runs in circles, pretending to run up the spiral staircase at the lighthouse, to check on the light on top. The phone rings, and he runs down the spiral staircase. He misses the phone call, and goes back up. The phone rings again and he goes down again. The lighthouse keeper answers the phone, and finds out that he has two friends coming over to visit. He goes back up the staircase to check light. Knock on the door or a bell rings. He goes down the staircase to anwer the door. He and his friends go up to the top while he checks the light. One friend faints. The lighthouse keeper sends the other friend down to call 911. He starts to call but forgets the number and goes back up to ask. He goes back down & calls for the Doctor. He goes back up. Door bell rings and they go down to answer the door. The doctor enters and they all go up the staircase to where the fainted friend is. The Doctor tells them the fainted friend has to go to the hospital. The pick him up and go down. On the way out the door the friend asks what that other door is for. The lighthouse keeper says it is the elevator. (GROAN) -- Thanks to Ken Spiegel, Assistant Scoutmaster T209, Medford, NY |
