Uniform is full Class A with Sash! We will be recognizing and awarding all ranks, merit badges and awards earned over the summer. Parents, be sure to join us! Please drop off your Scout at the Chapel and grab a seat inside! □ THANK YOU OPEN HOUSE VOLUNTEERS □ I want to say thank you to all of the Scouts who volunteered a couple of hours of their Saturday to come help at the Pack 65 Open House. The potential new Cub Scouts (plus those already at the Pack) enjoyed learning about the ax yard, checking out our tent and snacking on some s'mores! Helping at these events are critical not only for the success and longevity of the Pack, but also the Troop by inspiring younger kids to sign up and continue Scouting through their youth.   OTHER ANNOUNCEMENTS...
