(Song) “Deck The Halls”
Deck the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

(Skit) ”Baloney!”
Scoutmaster: “Hey guys, since were at the top of this mountain, I bet we could hear our echo.”
(Each person down the line calls out something like “Hello” or their name. Then A J calls “Baloney!” … which does not echo back.
Then the next person calls out “hello”, and it echoes.
Then the Scoutmaster yells “I am the greatest scoutmaster in the world” and it echos back “BALONEY!”

(Skit) ”Got any grapes?”
_Greg_ (clerk): “Fruits, fruits, get your apples, oranges, and peaches here.”
(Three scouts (ducks) walk in – _Colin_, _A J _ & _Jarrett_
(clerk): Hello there ducks.
Duck 1: Hello, got any grapes?
(clerk): No, sorry.
_Andy_ (narrator): The next day
Duck 2: Hello, got any grapes?
(clerk): No – I don’t have any grapes … sorry.
_Andy_ (narrator): The next day
Duck 3: Hello, got any grapes?
(clerk): No! … And if you ever come back in here asking for grapes again, I’ll will staple your beaks closed!
_Andy_ (narrator): The very next day …
Duck 1: Do you have any staples?
(clerk): uh … no, as a matter of fact, I don’t have any staples.
Ducks: Good. Got any grapes?

(Song) “Silent Night” – Lights down if possible – scouts with candles lit.
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
