Scouting for Food


During the month of February, our Pack collected food for the Lilburn Co-op. We collected 382 much needed items! Two of our Scouts then dropped them off Monday, February 25th. The volunteers were grateful for the donations. They showed us the room where the food is kept, and the overflow room. Even with all that food, however, the volunteers said they would go through it before Easter. Thanks to all the Scouts who participated - you've truly done a Good Turn for your neighbors.

Blue & Gold Banquet

What a great evening we had last night! I was so proud of all the boys and their awards and advancements earned! The Scout Sunday patch was beautiful! And did anyone get to see the $1,000,000 Dragon Bill that two of our Webelos earned? They are really cool! They earned that award through the uniform inspections and attendance to pack meetings and events.
There were so many adults helping, and I appreciate each of you so much! We are a volunteer organization and I'm so glad there are many hands pitching in to help make the work light.
Ashley did a great job with the pictures! Did you know we can buy one of those for $4?! I'm getting one - I was too busy to sit and watch it!
We'll be missing the Webelos II next week, and that moves my den into the spot of highest rank. We are already talking about OUR Crossover!
Congratulation Bart, Kortni and Daniel! We're proud of our new Boy Scouts and wish you well!

Flag Retirement Ceremony


Jordan and Robert (Bears) and Sebastien (Wolf) participated in the Boy Scout Flag Retirement Ceremony today at the Church. They were able to find out about the procedure for properly burning a flag and the solemnity of the occasion. They were also able to ask questions from the Scouts about the ceremony. Thank you boys for attending.
