A Special Recognition

The Pack took a moment to recognize a very special Scout for his heroic pool-side actions. Carson Stork selflessly dove into a pool to rescue a little girl who was struggling to stay above water. When he reached her, he calmly flipped her over so that her head was facing up, then he slipped his arm underneath her and swam her to the stairs. What a brave Scout! And, um, what are the Storks feeding those boys? That's some serious hair on Carson's chest.

Color Guard

The Tigers were terrific tonight as they faithfully performed their Color Guard duties! Kudos to Jon and Earle for doing such a great job preparing them for their big night. Brayden and Kaydon made a wonderful team as they led their den in this very special ceremony. Way to go Tigers!

Pack Meeting Tonight! Tigers Doing Flag Ceremony Tonight

There is a Pack Meeting TONIGHT (Monday, April 26) at 7:00pm-8:00pm. at the Church. The Tigers will be serving as the Color Guard tonight! Jon and Earle and the Scouts have worked really hard to be ready for this honor. See you tonight!

What A Kick!

"Best Den Meeting Ever." That was how one parent described our totally awesome, high-flying, fast-paced, Kickball Belt Loop night! With the possible exception of "forgetting" where they were in line to kick, there was terrific sportsmanship all over the field. Kids were cheering each other on, kids were encouraging one another, and they were trying hard to learn new skills and work together as a team. We had so much fun, that we're currently planning on doing a Flag Football Belt Loop night for our May 3 Den Meeting--same time, same place. How does that sound?!!! We love our Scouts!!!

CANCELLED: Camp Raymond

Pack Leadership has officially cancelled the camp out this weekend. That means that nobody is driving up to Camp Raymond this weekend!

At Monday's Den Meeting, we discussed the possibility of trying to pull together a last minute "dens only" camp out. However, that is not feasible. The Grand Canyon Council requires permits to be pulled and requires leaders to have particular types of training that none of the current den leaders have gone through (especially if there is water nearby). However, we'll look into getting those trainings and planning something in the not-too-distant future (or finding someone who has the appropriate training and recruiting that person to come with us).

So, you've got some extra time with the family this weekend! Enjoy!

Kickball Belt Loop, Monday, April 19!

On Monday, April 19 we will earn our Kickball Belt Loops! We'll meet at the normal time, 6:30-7:30, but instead of the church we will meet at the Green Belt near the Keller house. No uniforms!

Directions from Church: Head North on Arizona Ave. past Queen Creek. Turn left on Canary. You've gone too far if you hit Ryan or Germann. You'll see the Green Belt immediately upon turning on Canary. You can take a right on Oregon and a left on Goldfinch. Park anywhere you want on Goldfinch. The Keller house will be open for emergency bathroom breaks. I'll bring over some water for Scouts and parents.

Sorry for the lateness of these details, but we hope to see everybody there!!

No Den Meeting on Monday, April 12!

Just a friendly reminder that there are no Den Meetings on Monday, April 12!
