New Scout Shooting event is next weekend! https://scoutingevent.com/549-shootoree
This event is designed for new Cub Scouts or current Cub Scouts who recruited a friend this year. Activities will include BB Guns (age 6+), Archery, Slingshot, Games and more. To be able to provide this event in a safe manner, we will be limiting the size of the event by having families book a specific time slot when you register.
A mobile Scout Shop will also be present to help with your new uniform needs. This is a family friendly event, so siblings and family members are welcome to attend and those who are ages 6 and up will be able to participate in all activities.
We will not be providing a meal, but please feel free to bring a picnic lunch for your family.
Date: Saturday, September 28, 2024
Location: Wilksburg Baptist Church (3137 Pinckney Road, Chester, SC 29706).

For those of you new to the Pack, our October Pack meeting is full of ghools and goblins! All attendees - adults, siblings and scouts - come dressed in your favorite costume! Bring a bag or container so our scouts and young siblings can parade through the pumpkin patch and go trick or treating among all of the decorated trunks in our parking lot! Look for a sign up coming later to be one of the decorated trunks or to donate candy and fun things to hand out to our kids!! Giving you a heads up so you can get those costumes and decorations ready! I know I already have mine!
