Corn Maze - Big Success! Thank you to all of the families who joined us at the Chatfield Corn Maze this past weekend! We had about 16 scouts and their parents/siblings - a fun time was had by all! Stay tuned to hear about our next Pack-wide outing...

Next Pack Meeting - October 28 from 7:00 - 8:00pm - PUMPKIN CARVING!

Only one week left! You won't want to miss our annual pumpkin carving contest! All Scouts (and siblings too!) are encouraged to carve/decorate a pumpkin at home and then bring it to the Pack Meeting on the 28th. ** Please note - we are NOT carving/decorating pumpkins at the meeting - it needs to be done at home and brought to the meeting already completed!! ** In addition to the pumpkin judging, we will have our official Bobcat ceremony for our Tigers and any other boys new to Scouting.

University of Scouting

This fantastic day of training is THIS weekend! If you have not yet registered, the link to sign up is:

Pack 39 Patches

If you would like to have one of our new Pack 39 patches, please respond to this e-mail or pick one up at the next Pack meeting. They are $3 each. This is one single patch (instead of a separate "3" and "9") which is easier to sew onto the uniforms and it also commemorates the 55 years that Pack 39 has existed.
