Build Day and Recharter

Good Afternoon Pack! Recharter – All of our returning scouts need to recharter. We have options for payment plans as well. This does not apply to you if you are a new scout for the 2023-2024 school year. https://etacpack359.org/recharter/.

Meeting Tonight

Hello Bear Families! We are going to meet in the sanctuary today to start learning the flag ceremony. We will also work a little more with our pocket knives. There are a couple more activities we need to do to earn our BEAR CLAWS belt loop. We are also going to make a gift for Tire Worx as a “thank-you” for sponsoring our tool boxes. I painted a tool box blue and have a yellow paint pen we can use to sign our names on the tool box. Let’s also fill it with snacks and treats for the crew at Tire Worx. What to Bring: a Scout in Uniform , a pocket knife that the Scout knows how to open and close, SNACKS and TREATS…
