Hey, Looky Here, Someone Left This Blog Laying Around...

(Cough, sneeze, wheeze)

I'm blowing the dust off this blog!

Where do I start?? We finished out last year with Boy Scout Bridging, Cub Scout Graduation, and summer time activities that qualified out pack for the National Summertime Award!

BUT, there's no sitting back and resting, as the new scouting year is upon us and Popcorn sales have started!

I am truly excited about this year. One scouting expression is to apply the phrase, "Let's make this the best ______ ever!" We do this by learning from the past and improving where we can. And Pack 365's leaders are exceptionally good at this.

Besides the regular program you can expect from your den leaders, watch for a new pack meeting format (well, not really new, just using the tried and true format), a Recruiting/Retention position, a ScoutParent position, a Tiger Den Leader Mentor, and uniform locker, dedicated benches, garden, den program assistance, an underprivileged scout scholarship, and much, much more!!

As Cubmaster I get the great honor of being the guiding face for our organization. but make no mistake about, out 16 registered leaders and 2 non-registered leaders are the driving force behind our accomplishments. And where would they be without scouts and dedicated parents?

Believe me, I hear about scouting units that struggle with internal strife, poor accommodations, money shortages, or scout shortages. We are truly blessed to be where we are.

I hope you, like me, are looking forward to this year!! Fasten your seat belts, here we go!
