Pack leadership has created the 2024-25 scout schedule.  About 98% is accurate for times and dates - we may have a few things slide around depending on availability of outside folks doing program for us. Most of that scheduling is in the Spring months of 2025.  


Pack leadership participated in the planning meeting for popcorn so our unit gains additional 1% of profit.  May not sound like a lot of $$$, but it adds up. We have a fantastic opportunity this year as we have 3 different places to sell (Walmart, Lowes, & Cabela's) and all of them have been proven winners in past years!!  We are scheduled to have 80% of the selling done prior to our first scout meeting.  Andy & Kim will have a sign-up schedule at the swim party for show and sell dates! Calls/emails will also be sent out to get everyone signed up. 


 Every cub pack will be recruiting again in September.  Our best recruiting efforts comes from our own scouts.  We will be setup on August 19th SVES community night.  Our council is also setting up a SVES parent sign up night and also doing presentations in the school.  Our Pack will also have a sign up night at the Hall on September 19th meeting night.  As we have done in the past we will need parent support to get the message out on all the "online" communication apps that our community uses at school.


New Internet connectivity at the Hall!  Thank you to our Church board they have approved a $15 thousand internet/wiring update to the church and hall.  It is installed!  Also, Andy has gotten us a fully loaded (what we need) computer for the Pack.  We will be looking for a volunteer parent to help at meetings entering in advancement for our scouts.  This is not a weekly job, but more monthly as scouts get done with their advancement.  The job is really simple but will save a ton of time outside our meetings.
