Scouts from Pack 111 sit anxiously waiting for an explosion. It was part of a demonstration put on by Mark Martin of Ameren Illinois. Martin spoke to kids and parents about the dangers of mingling natural gas and electricity and explained how explosions can happen when a gas leak occurs in the home. The presentation was a part of the pack's Thanksgiving dinner Thursday evening.
