Scout Yard Sale

Cub Scout Families,

On Sat. June 11th, from 8 AM to 2 PM there will be a Scout Yard Sale! It will be located on the corner of 700 North and Riverwalk. We would appreciate your help in two ways. #1- make a contribution to the yard sale itself, and #2 come and see if there is something there that will help out you and your family.

Our Cub Scout Day camp was paid for out of the Scout funds, so we would appreciate any help you could give to help them earn enough money for their week long camp.


I appreciate all you do for Scouting.

May Pack Meeting

We held Pack Meeting, only no one held my camera and recorded the event with pictures.  We had one Cub earn his Wolf badge and several others earn belt loops.

We played games with jump ropes, orange slices, paper plates, yarn balls and shoes!  It was lots of fun!  Sorry about the lack of pictures.

  • 6:05-7:20 Sessions 4-5
  • 7:25-7:45 Closing Ceremony
Since the Wolves and Bears have to be there to check in at 7:15-7:45 and the location is 45 minutes away on a freeway that is not under construction.  They will need to leave no later than 6:30 AM and the boys will need to bring a lunch, which will be stored in an ice chest.  We would prefer a class B uniform (a t-shirt with a cub scout emblem on it) rather than their regular uniform.  Past experience has taught  that neckerchiefs, slides, patches, badges, etc, tend to disappear  from uniforms while at day camp. (Yes, it's that much fun).

Webelos will need to leave at 1:30 PM to get to Day Camp on time. The lunch and uniform requirements apply to them also.
If you have any questions, contact me or your Cub's Den Leader.
