There was a mistake on the flyer! Our “Back To Scouts” kick-off rain gutter regatta and water day is Saturday, August 15th!  Please update your calendars (Pack Calendar – https://etacpack359.org/calendar).  The times and activities are still correct; the date is just incorrect.  Again, Saturday, August 15th, is the rain gutter regatta and water day.
