On Sunday May 20th, we helped ASM celebrate their seventh International Festival.
Parent volunteers and entire families put together country booths displaying the very best their countries have to offer including food at every booth and a cultural display of arts & crafts, music, history and much more! In addition to setting up booths, the participating countries are also hosting games, activities and workshops for children and adults. The day concluded in the Auditorium with the InterFest performances. The Cub Scouts together with the Girl Scouts and the Boy Scouts sang America, the Beautiful. Complete photo coverage in the gallery. |

On the 15th of May the Wolves visited Madrid's Fire Department Museum, the Museo de Bomberos. We were joined by siblings and we also welcomed two scouts from the British Scout Association.
After visiting the museum, the Wolves discovered the Parque Pío Felipe.
This park has some of the best views of Madrid.
The Wolves also had a chance to see a commercial being filmed.
More pictures can be seen at the gallery.
