Council Wide Recruitment Nights - Oct 20, 21, and 22 at 7 pm by Zoom

Calling all Boys and Girls Kinder-5th Grade

Scouts have been having the time of their lives making new friends and learning new skills in an environment designed to help them succeed. From building their own pinewood derby® car to learning how to roast the perfect marshmallow with their best friends at a family campout, your child will LOVE being a Scout while they learn to set personal goals. You will meet other parents who are just like you, trying to teach their children strong values and how to achieve success in life while still having fun as a family. Join us zoom for a Council-wide recruitment meeting to learn about Scouting.

Tuesday, Oct. 20, Wednesday, Oct. 21, and Thursday, Oct. 22, 2020, at 7pm.

Fall Kickoff Meeting

Hello, Current and Prospective Pack 310 Families!  

We are pleased to invite you all to our Fall Kickoff Meeting, to be held next Tuesday, September 22, from 7:00-7:30PM. We are excited to kick off this year in spite of the circumstances of not being able to meet in person yet!  We will discuss this year's Pack 310 events, fundraising, dues, etc.  

Hopefully, all you Cub Scouts and adult volunteers will come to the meeting sporting your uniforms to show off to the new and prospective Cub Scouts.  You all look very sharp in uniform!

Please invite friends to come and check out Pack 310.  Any scout that invites a friend (with parents not already on this email) who attends the meeting will be entered into a drawing to win a $25 gift card to Big 5 Sporting Goods.

Email lacrescentapack310@gmail.com for the Zoom link. Hope to see you all there and don't forget to bring a friend.
