make sure you invite your friends to come

along to our pack meetings!

Adult volunteers are needed for various committee and den leadership activities. Please help “Make the Pack Go!” See Chris Miller to volunteer. Many positions require just 1-2 hours per month.

It's that time again,…This is where we need all of your participation.  Moms and Dads, we don't have all the great ideas (believe it or not) on what to do through out the year, so the Pack needs your input and help. 

Make your voices heard, now is the time.
