Have everyone yell at once.
Fireman’s Applause:
Make sounds, “Crackle, crackle, pop” as you move your fingers over your head.
Then make a sound like a fire engine.
Grab your hose and spray on the fire and “hiss-s-s”
Say “The fire is out.”
San Gabriel, Long Beach Area, Verdugo Hills Councils
Firefighter Cheer: “WATER! WATER! WATER!”
Grand Howl Applause:
Cub Scouts form a circle around the person being honored.
Each Cub Scout in the circle squats, makes the two-fingered Cub Scout sign and touches the fingers of both hands to the ground, between his feet.
Then, like young wolves, the Cub Scouts raise their heads and give a long howl:
“Ah-h-kay-y-la! Wee-e’ll do-o-o ou-u-u-ur best!”
As the word “best’ is yelled, very sharply, everyone jumps to his feet, raises his hands high above his head, and gives the Cub Scout sign.
