Welcome back

Hello Pack 400 families,I hope you all had an awesome summer. We’re looking forward to having school start again as that means we’ll have more regular Scout meetings.

We’ve decided to hold pack meetings on the first Wednesday of each month at 6:30 pm. Most of these meetings will be held at West Jeff Elementary. However, meetings with meals will be at Mountain High Christian Center.

That means that our first pack meeting is Wednesday, Sept. 4th at 6:30 pm at Mountain High. It will be our annual sign-up night. You are all registered through the end of the calendar year. However, this is a great time for scouts to bring their friends who are interested in joining. Remember, any scout who has a friend sign up gets a “recruiter” patch for their uniform.

We’ll be serving dinner at the Sept meeting. The pack will provide hamburgers, hot dogs, etc. We’re asking you to bring an item depending on which den you’re in. If you have children in more than one den please go with the younger den.

Tigers – dessert
Wolves – Fruit or green leafy salad
Bears – Fruit or green leafy salad
Webelos – Sides (macaroni salad, potato salad or whatever)
Arrows – chips

We REALLY need a volunteer to act as a den leader for either the Wolves or Bears den. Keith has agreed to continue as the leader for one of those dens but he can’t do both. PLEASE consider helping out. The den leader doesn’t have to lead each meeting. They may simply coordinate with parents to lead meetings. Please let me know if you might even consider helping us out with this.

We’re really happy to have Vikki (Marcus’s mom) leading the Tigers this year. Thanks, Vikki! So our den leaders are:
Lions (Kindergarten) – Janel Sullivan
Tigers (1st grade) – Vikki Scholten
Wolves (2nd grade) – Maybe you? (or Keith Sargent)
Bears (3rd grade) – Maybe you? (or Keith Sargent)
Webelos (4th grade) – Eli Boymel
Arrows (5th grade) – Patty Pinsonnault

Finally, please remember to sign up for the Camporee and let me know if you’ve signed up. We will not be holding our regular campout at McKeever this fall as we’ll be attending the Camporee instead. We may camp at McKeever in the spring.
