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.

Pack 109 Updates - 3/20/2025

Hi all! Spring has sprung which means we are getting close to our Spring Campout at Sesquicentennial State Park! Make sure you sign up ASAP: https://forms.gle/7sd2pQfTmgRegtQg8

We plan to have a great time doing some fishing, enjoying a Ranger Program, going for a hike....and if the splash pad is open we can play in the water! Right now we only have 14 scouts signed up so let's click the link and get registered! Deadline will be next Friday, March 28.

Our next pack meeting will be all about fishing on the 31st. We'll cover all of the basics for every rank's elective. But you must come to the campout to actually go fishing to earn that award. We also will have our Unit Commissioner, Bob White, attending our meeting to discuss Friends of Scouting. This is the fundraising program run by our Council and one of the primary ways they earn money to continue to run our programing. If you are willing and able, please consider making a donation at the Pack Meeting.

Summer camp sign ups are still active as well. Be sure to get those scouts signed up!
