Meetings, Camping and MORE!

Scouters, New and Old,

We appreciated you joining us for our casual Kick-Off Picnic. I find this is a nice way for the Cubs and Families to get reacquainted after all of the vacationing summer seems to bring.

We have BIG plans for our first meeting in August and a Family Cub Scout Camp Out Event in September, so it is important you stay tuned to this blog and ATTEND our first meeting on

AUGUST 29TH, 6 TO 7:30 P.M. AT THE COMMUNITY UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, FELLOWSHIP/EDUCATION BUILDING. We will be focusing on Camping Preparedness! 

In lieu of our September, Cub Scout Family Camp Out, the above topic seems timely. Most of you are aware, I am an avid outdoors-woman and have intentionally planned our Family Camp Event for September, when monsoons have passed, day time temperatures have stabilized and the huge crowds we experience in mid-summer have dissipated. The Pack will be attending this fun event at the Dowling Aquatic Base in Carlsbad. Details are highlighted below so please read very carefully.

Registration is due by September 9th. You must register your family FOR SESSION TWO, to occur on Saturday, September 17 and Sunday, September 18th, online at:

Last but most definitely not least, your Cubs signed books are due 15 September, if you would like him to receive his Rank Advancement Badge. Review your books now, finish any remaining tasks, and get them to me!

In Gratitude,
Anessa Collins
