We’re glad to welcome everyone back as we begin a new Cub Scout year. Whether your child is returning or visiting our Pack for the first time, we’re looking forward to meeting you and sharing what Cub Scouting is all about. This week’s gathering is meant to be a relaxed chance to reconnect, enjoy some movie shorts, sample the popcorn our Scouts will be selling, and give families time to ask questions. All current Scouts can wear Class B or whatever is comfortable. We’re excited to start another year of learning, friendship, and adventure together!
We’ll have a table set up for any families who want to bring lightly used uniforms or Scouting gear their kids have outgrown. These items will be available for families who may need a piece or two this year. It’s a simple way for us to support one another and put the Scout Law into practice — Helpful, Friendly, and Kind.
As we start the new Cub Scout year, we’d love your help shaping what the coming months look like. We’ve put together a short survey for families to share ideas, suggestions, and feedback. Your input really does guide our planning, so please take a moment to fill it out.
We also launched a new Pack Facebook page, which will grow as we add photos, updates, and reminders. If you follow the page and share it with friends, it will help us reach families who may be interested in joining.
Finally, we created a Facebook event for our Welcome Back Movie Night. If you know families with Cub‑aged kids (K-5th) who might want to check out Scouting, feel free to share the event with them. It’s a relaxed, fun way for new families to see what our Pack is all about.
