We meet once a month during the school year for our Pack Meeting in the Scout Hut at Northside Presbyterian Church, with adults and scouts invited to participate together.
Our Pack Meeting is a chance to learn about the principles of scouting, complete rank advancement activities, and play with other scouts.
We also plan a special activity each month for scouts to bring their friends and families. Things like:
Camping Trips
Pinewood Derby
Charity Service Projects
Hiking Expeditions
and Much More!
Big Trips
At the end of each summer, we gear up and head out to participate in one of the big trips below. It’s a great way to kick off the new scouting year and participate in some truly special events!
