Pack 109 Updates - 3/25/2025

Hello Scout Families! We've got some fun things coming up! Tomorrow night is the District Pinewood Derby at Woodland. Everyone is welcome to come and watch our scouts compete for the District win! Next Monday is our March Pack Meeting. Please have your scouts in full class A uniform. There will be a presentation from our Unit Commission on our Friends of Scouting fundraising campaign. Donations and pledges will be gladly accepted if you are willing and able. Have a great week everyone!

Spring Camping
https://forms.gle/MVgUWGG1pQ5yJ11E6
It's time to get excited about our spring campout! Sign up to let us know if you are coming! This year we are headed to Sesquicentennial State Park in Columbia, SC. Join us Friday, April 4th to set up camp and enjoy a Friday night fire and smores after dinner. You have the option to camp both Friday and Saturday nights or not at all and just come for the fun on Saturday. Cost to camp per person is $4 rather you camp both nights or just one. If you chose to camp both nights and eat all five meals ($3 per meal per person) we will have, your total cost per person will be $19 per person. Remember that we eat meals as a pack and ask that there is no individual family cooking. All fires will be at a designated fire pit so there is no need to bring your own. Dens will be responsible for one meal each (more info on that one) so we will not be signing up for meal duty this time. All adults will be expected to help out your scout's den in prep, cooking and clean up. If you need financial assistance, please see David Carter, our Committee Chair. Your troop web host account we be charged accordingly soon after you register. Fun activities will begin early Saturday morning and we close camp after breakfast on Sunday morning. There are lots of fun activities we hope to do such as Junior Ranger Program, fishing, hiking and they even have a fun playground.
