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.
