Pack 366 (!) news


Day camp early bird deadline was extended!  Day Camp is Wed-Thurs-Fri June 25-26-27 at South Park.  If you want to attend but have not yet signed up, please send an email to cubscouts661@verizon.net with “Day Camp” in the subject.  Please do it by Sunday night to take advantage of the $55 rate (a $10 discount).  Include your scout’s name, current grade, and Youth T-shirt size. 


There are no sharks in Heritage’s Lake Courage…  but some scouts prefer to take their swim tests in advance in a swimming pool!  Tests are being held at Bethel Park’s high school on April 27, May 11, and May 18 from 4:30-6:00- see your Den Leader for details.  If you are going with a group, it is best to coordinate schedules and be there together because they put the results on a single sheet of paper that you turn in at Heritage this summer.

Baloo training  This is a one-day training session where you will learn what is needed to run a fun and safe Cub Scout Camping weekend.  It is a fun training session- promise!  Our boys will benefit from you attending & implementing what you learn when we have a Fall Campout.



A Project!  Have you ever wanted to help out, but didn’t know where to start?  Here’s a project that needs an owner- Getting a new Pack Flag!  We need a new flag.  Our current flag is outdated- our Council name and Unit number have both changed.  Could you help the Pack solve this problem (the pack will pay for the flag, of course) ?  If so, please email cubscouts661@verizon.net  with the subject “Pack Flag” .
