It's FALL

My last post was in May, so what happened to summer?? Pack 365 had a great summer, with most scouts participating in hikes, Adopt-a-Greenway, Resident Camp, Cub-Adult Overnighters, Cub Scout Day Camp, a Bike Rodeo (x2), and a Scout Year Kick-Off pool party. In fact, you guys earned the Summertime Pin, and helped the Pack earn the National Summertime Award!

Now a new year is in full force. We have a record number of Tiger Cubs, creating for the first time TWO Tiger dens! With these Tigers come enthusiastic and involved adult partners!

We're holding Popcorn sales (which are going great!), and we've already been camping. The Webelos 2s went to the Council Camporee with Troop 365 (thank you Troop!), and the rest of the scouts did family camping at Falls Lake. The weekend was perfect! mid-70's during the day for activities, mid-50s at night for campfire, cinnamon roles, and S'mores.

The W2s spent their time pioneering, geocaching, and rope tying, among other things. 5 of them participated in a 6 am 5k run!

So, where does this put us? Well, we're stronger than ever, and poised to make this our best year ever! As a Cubmaster, I couldn't ask for a better group of scouts, adults, or leaders!

Keep the momentum up, and participate as much as you can. Our focus is on these boys, and it takes everyone, Charter Organization, Pack Committee, leaders, and adult partners to make it work.
