Welcome back to a new scouting season. In addition to welcoming back our returning scouts we would also like to wish the best to our scouts who crossed over into the Boy Scouts at the end of the previous season. Your pack wishes you the best of luck and hopes you enjoy your learning experience in the Boy Scouts.
We hope everyone had a great summer and enjoyed the summer activities that we had planned for you. We would love to get feedback from those who attended on what we did this past summer. There will be a recap of what we did coming soon.
New Season
As we get back into the swing of things with our weekly meetings starting back up on Monday, September 14th. This is the time of the year for returning scouts to bring in any friends or family interested in scouting. If they join and pay their dues the referring scout earns their recruiter badge.
During this time we will have a lot of new scouts showing up with an interest in scouting. We expect that our seasoned scouts will exhibit the core values of scouting and help make the new scouts feel welcome. They should take the time to introduce themselves, introduce new boys to other pack members & leaders, as well as assist them with earning the Bobcat rank.
Parent Meetings
We will be holding monthly parent meetings on the last Monday of every month. Our goal is to keep these meetings around 15-20 minutes. When there is a Pack meeting that Monday, the parent meeting will be part of the pack meeting. The format will be to inform you of what is coming up; any issues, concerns or changes going on; what your scouts are working on, and any assistance we may need. We ask that you be sure at least one parent or family member attends each meeting.
September is the exception to the rule. Our parent meeting for all returning parents or those who join us before the open house will be Monday September 21st. During this meeting we will be handing out and going over the calendar for the 2015-2016 year. We look forward to seeing you all. New scout parents who come to the open house will have a separate meeting during the open house on Monday September 28th.
We look forward to seeing everyone on Monday the 14th and hearing what other exciting things you did over the Summer.
Welcome Back!
