Marshdale's Back-to-School Ice Cream Social

Pack 39 will have a booth at Marshdale's Back-to-School Ice Cream Social on Wednesday August 17th from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. We would love it if some of the Scouts could wear their full Class A uniform or at least their Class B shirts to the event. Have the Scouts encourage their friends to join scouts and bring them by the table to hang out for a bit and play a little Hockey Box!

Pack Meeting/Join Night

Our first Pack Meeting of the year will be on Tuesday, August 30th, starting at 6:30 PM (NOTE THE EARLIER START TIME). This is our annual "Join Night," where we will have entertainment for the boys so the Leaders can meet with any new families and answer questions. If you know of any friends or family who would enjoy our Scouting program, encourage them to attend this meeting - they do not have to attend Marshdale to join our Pack

2016 Timberline, Frontier & Venturing Fall Shooting Sports Camporee Registration

Timberline District Shooting Sports Camporee features activities for Cubs, Webelos, Boy Scouts and Venture Scouts. Scouts will be able to learn about gun safety while having the opportunity to shoot rifles, shotguns, black powder guns and archery. This is an optional district-wide event that will run from 9/30 to 10/2. Click here for details!

Family Movie Night!

Here’s an opportunity to take the family out for a movie at the Pepsi Center! As an added bonus, each movie ticket comes with an upper end admission to one of two offered Avalanche games (10/28 Avalanche vs. the Winnipeg Jets or 1/6 vs. the New York Islanders). This is an optional district-wide event on September 10th. Click here for more details!

Class A Uniforms

Remember that your Scouts can wear their Class A uniforms to school on days when they will be meeting as a Den or a Pack. This helps show pride in the Scouting organization, and helps other kids gain interest. Please be sure your Scout wears his uniform properly. This means the shirt should be clean, ironed and tucked in. To help them understand why this is important, perhaps you can draw an analogy of what their thoughts might be if .they were to see a police officer with his/her uniform shirt untucked. Or a business man (perhaps even their dad) going to a business meeting with his dress shirt untucked. Encourage them to proudly wear their Scout uniform and positively represent our Pack!

Class B Uniforms & Pack 39 Patches

Class B shirts will be available at Pack Meetings for $15 each. We have an assortment of kids and adult sizes. In addition, we have exclusive "Pack 39" patches for $3 each. Please see a Den Leader or our Treasurer (Ellen Williams) at the next Pack meeting if you'd like to purchase any of these items.
