Family Camp REGISTRATION needed now!

All families planning to attend need to register at https://etacpack359.org/familycamp/ so we need to get a headcount and plan accordingly.

Even if your schedule will not allow camping, feel free to come out for the day and enjoy the outdoors with us. If cooking outdoors isn’t your thing,…

Nature Journals, Flag Placement this Sunday

Hello Tiger Families! It was so fun to see everyone last night! I hope the kiddos had fun and learned a little bit. Please encourage your kids to use their journals to observe nature this week. They can share some of the things they saw with the group next Monday. Flag Placement: Please meet at the church on Sunday at 4:00 to come and learn how to place flags and to learn some of the routes for our den. Our den will be responsible for the same routes all year (and every year). We are hoping this makes placing and picking up flags more “stream-lined.” Thank-you so much in advance, and I’ll see you on Sunday at 4:00! If your scout has a uniform, please…

Pack Meeting Tonight

Hello Tiger Families! I hope everyone who attended Mom and Me had a wonderful time. I hate that I had to miss it, but we had something come up. I heard that it was a lot of fun. Tonight is our first Pack Meeting! All of the den families will meet together in the sanctuary. If you have a Class A uniform (the blue shirt and neckerchief), please have your scout wear it. We will get to go on stage as a den to share with the rest of the pack what we have been working on. Bobcat rank will also be awarded to all of our Tigers who don’t already have Bobcat. We have practiced the Scout Oath and Law many time together, and…
