Scouts and Parents

More Great Weather is Coming!! Now is a good time to help your Scout finish any belt loops and pins they want to achieve this year. In May our Scouts will advance to the next level.  Share with your Den Leaders anything your Scout has accomplished and not yet received.  We will get that to them by the May Pack meeting.  Have a Great Week!!!

There are still a few spots left on this campout.  Anyone interested should contact Mike Blew at blew4589@gmail.com immediately.

Those who registered should have received an email from Mike Blew with instructions to complete registration on the Space Center Website.  Please do that immediately to lock in meal choices.

Join us at the RPE STEAM night tomorrow, Wednesday 26th, 5:30 - 7:30pm.  Our Pack will have a booth and we'll be racing our Pinewood Derby cars like last year.  Come by the booth and race old models and new.  Hopefully we can get some new recruits sharing our stories if you come by!

Scouts and Adults were entertained by the Reptile Man at our March Pack Meeting.  How many Scouts does it take to hold an Anaconda? 5 big scouts or 6 little scouts  Yup, this was a hands on adventure for the scouts.  First off, hand sanitizer before touching any of our reptile visitors. This was to keep them free from kid germs.  Don't worry, hand sanitizer was used after as well.  One by one scouts got to pet turtles, geckos, iguanas and snakes. Plenty of photo opportunities for parents as well.  Good Scouting Fun!

Campout Update as told by Wolf Den Leader Kelly Cooper

It was a memory maker!  Wolf Liam and I along with Wolf Alex and his dad Neal  arrived Friday afternoon, got camp set up, explored some and hit the sack around 10.  We decided to wait until Saturday morning to explore the dinosaur tracks (this was a poor decision).  I was a little apprehensive because it was supposed to rain and we didn’t have any cell service so I couldn’t check the weather.

Are Jackalopes Real? Do they have eggs? No and No!  But Saturday 4 Scouts and 6 Parents helped collect golf balls at the Steiner Ranch Golf Course.  The Balcones Canyonlands Preserve is adjacent to the golf course driving range.  The Scouts learned about animals and birds that the preserve protects.  The service project was to collect as many golf balls that flew over the fence.  They were weighed and most balls per older scout or total weight for Packs was determined.  We didn't stay till the end but we will find out soon how we did.  Thanks to the Scouts and Parents that participated.
