Bike Rodeo
The Bike Rodeo is tentatively scheduled for October 18th. We will begin with a bike inspection of each scout, inspecting breaks, guards, helmets, etc. We'll then be recording scores at each of the 5-6 stations.
At the conclusion of the activities ice cream, certificates, and prizes will be given out.
Mystery Bus Tour
Due to a lack of interested scouting families the mystery bus tour has been postponed. We will discuss alternatives during our first pack meeting of the season.
A True Leader In Our Pack
Beth Henry - Our Den 1 Leader, has been awarded the Towpath District Den Leader Of The Year Award. This is a very significant achievement because it recognizes one Den Leader across not only pack 8 but across the entire Towpath district each year whose dedication to boys in the Scouting program is outstanding. This Den Leader must be one who provided the best possible program for the boys in his/her Den. The award is for Den Leaders and Webelos Den Leaders.
