Volunteers:

We need a few parents to coordinate the 2010 Sept./Oct. Popcorn sale.

The Pack is always looking for volunteers.  Contact your den leader to see what you can do to help make Cub Scouting the best experience you can for your son.  Families will be contacted periodically about ways they can volunteer or otherwise help out the Pack and their son's dens.

The 2010 Pinewood Derby is over and all seemed to have fun.

Many thanks to all those that helped out to make this event an enjoyable experience for the boys.

The results of the race will be posted (as time permits).  The Access database used by the software is already posted in the Knowledge Base section.

Membership
Cub Scouts is a community organization and as such Pack 746 accepts all boys regardless of where they live, go school, or go to church.  The Cub Scout year runs from June to May.  As of June all boys are considered to have moved up a grade level and are considered to be of the next higher rank.  Thus, boys in Kindergarten can join the Pack in June as Tigers and don't have to wait until September when they start first grade.

Pack Meetings
Pack meetings are for all boys in the Pack and are held once a month during the school year (Sep-May).  There are 3 summer time events as well that the boys can attend to earn the National Summertime Award.  Pack meetings are typically on Sundays at 2pm in the Parish Center on the grounds at St. Joseph's and run about an hour (special events like the Pinewood Derby run longer).  We do not have a set schedule for the Pack meetings as we have to schedule with the Parish Office for use of the building but our calendar is set over the summer time and dates posted by the start of school for the upcoming year.

Den Meetings (Sep 2009 - May 2010)
Dens are groups of 6-8 boys of the same age and typically all in the same grade.  The dens in our Pack meet twice a month in the Scout building / Youth Center at St. Joseph's.  The building is on the south end of the campus by the play ground (near the school gym).  As the boys move up in age and rank they stay with their den and keep the same meeting night.

Committee Meetings
The Committee is open to all parents.  The Committee meets at 6:30 pm on the 2nd Thursday of each month in room #4 of the Parish Center (downstairs).  Enter through the Parish Center door in the back by the loading dock.  No meeting in July.  The May meeting is devoted to planning the calendar for the following school year.
