Where Have I Been??

Nearly two months since my last post. Mostly healed up from shoulder surgery and returned from several out of town trips.

The regular scout year has ended, and the Pack 365 leadership and parents are looking forward to next year's events with great excitement. Our freshman year is over, and now we can move into a sophomore year with events and planning that will have evolved from our trials and mistakes from the past year.

Even given areas we know we'd like to change or improve on, we feel really good about last year. All the scouts advanced, all are planning on returning, we have what looks to be a good sized Tigers Den coming this fall, as well as a Webelos II.

Comments I get from parents are very positive and supportive, as well.

Looking at our last two events, graduation and the Mudcats Campout, we still have really good participation.

Mudcats this year, contrasting last year's coolness and drizzle, was very hot and humid, with heat index at close 104. Mudcats won, the fireworks were great, and the movie didn't start too late (try telling that to the ones who stayed for it!!)

I'm looking forward to the summer activities that are on the calendar, and the start of a new year later this summer/fall.

The first summer event is the Neuse River Clean-up, on June 21. See you there!!
