Parent Participation Needed
Our Scouting program is only as strong as the volunteers that support our Pack. We have many positions within the Pack that can fit with your skills and availability:
Assistant Leaders: weekly commitment to a Den
Committee Members: monthly commitment to the Pack
Event Helpers: occasional support for activities
If you are interested in having a more formal role in the Pack, please contact Mr. Crawley.
October Committee Meeting
The Pack Committee will meet on Monday, October 17th, from 7pm-9pm, at the Church. Parents are always welcome to attend.
Haunted Hike & Halloween Party
We will have our Pack Halloween Party on Tuesday, October 25th at 7pm at Camp Kishwaukee. This is also Scouts BSA Troop 71's Haunted Hike event, so we will get to experience what the boys in the Troop have cooked-up for Halloween frights. Scouts and their siblings are encouraged to dress up in their Halloween costumes for this party. There will be activities and snacks for the whole family to participate in!
Brookfield Zoo Tree Trimming
One of our annual traditions is to decorate a Christmas Tree at Brookfield Zoo. This tradition is quite fun for our Scouts, as they make decorations for the tree at a den meeting then we all gather at the zoo to put them on our tree. We will be trimming our tree on Sunday, November 13, 2022, beginning at 10:00am. All Scouts and their families should meet near the carousel upon your arrival. We will then move as a group to our tree to decorate. After we are done decorating, your family is free to enjoy the remainder of the day visiting the zoo animals!
If you have a current zoo membership, we ask that you use it for admission and parking for your family. Admission tickets and parking passes for families that do not have a current zoo membership will be distributed at the den meetings on November 7th.
Parking: Main (North) Parking Lot
Meet-up: Sunday, November 13, 2022, 10:00am at the Carousel
Tree Trimming: location to be announced
Uniforming: Activity Scout Shirt ("Class B")
