Pack 109 Updates - 5/15/2025

Good morning scout family!! Just one more meeting and summer is here!!! We will be meeting on the lawn near the playground and Wesley Hall on Monday at 6:40pm. Woodland is generously cooking hot dogs and burgers for dinner for everyone attending. Each den has coordinated side dishes to bring to share. We will have our opening ceremony, start eating and then proceed with our final meeting! Make sure you bring a lawn chair for everyone and a water bottle (unless your den is doing drinks). Please have all scouts in full class A uniform if you have one. If you would like to donate your scouts hat and neckerchief at the end of the meeting we will gladly accept them and pass them on to those that need them. It's also a good time to present your scout with their next rank hat and neckerchief if you have them! We will also have the Scout Shop set up at a meeting in early September.

Also, stay tuned for some fun summertime activities. In order for your scout to earn their Summertime Fun belt loop or pin, they must attend at least 3 activities over the summer with our pack or council. Day camp counts as 1 and overnight summer camp counts as another 1. We are in the process of planning these events, but they usually are things like going to the Knights game, coming to our raingutter regatta and a welcome back party we have right before scouts starts up officially for fall.

Upcoming events for Pack 109:
Jun 06-07 - Night at the Knights June 6th - scouts are invited to the baseball game and then camp on the field after the game. They provide a light breakfast the next morning. There will be a parade before the game for the scouts and it’s their Scooby Doo night. Gates open at 5pm and the first pitch is at 6:30pm. You can just go for the game if you do not wish to sleep on the field. Scouts who spend the night will receive a patch. Prices are $26 for the game and sleepover or $21 for just the game. This price does not include taxes or fees. Jessie has purchased her tickets already and is in section 119 Row B so you can all try to sit together.

Pack 109 Updates - 5/1/2025

Hey scout family!! Do you believe we are almost at the end of both the scout year and the school year! It's been a year full of fun adventures!! Speaking of adventures.....we are looking for ideas for our next big trip! In the past we have done NASA - sleeping under the shuttle, we have spent many nights on the Yorktown aircraft carrier and even overnight in the Atlanta Aquarium! And all of that is on top of our normal campouts and fun activities! If you have an idea of what our next trip could be please email me back with your ideas!!!


There are just two more den meetings and then our final spring picnic pack meeting on May 19th! Make sure you are aware of your scouts status and what adventures they still have to complete - especially if they did not receive their rank patch at the Blue and Gold ceremony end of February. Our goal is to have every scout earn their rank badge!!!

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.
