Please join us and INVITE FRIENDS to the Pack Preview night, Tuesday 8/19 at 6:30 PM.

This is the event where we welcome new families into our pack. Please have your current scouts attend to show that we have a good group of existing scouts and make it more fun! Also, scouting is more fun with friends, so invite friends and family with scout age children to come and learn about how they can become a part of Pack 95!

Please join us as a leader! We need adults to step into the following leadership positions:

• Pack Committee Members - This is the easiest entry point to helping out the pack, and it only involves coming to our monthly Parent Meetings and giving your input, as we plan upcoming events. Starting here is great and likely the best option! The parent meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month, at 6:00 PM. I'll look forward to seeing you there 😉!
• Den Leaders are needed for the Lions, Tigers, and Wolves Dens. These dens can continue to meet together or can be split to meet as individual dens. Ideally we want them to split up, as they grow and leaders are necessary for that to happen.
• Pack Treasurer - This person would be responsible for collecting pack dues and keeping track of pack income and expenses. It's also good accountability and transparency to have that not just be the packmaster 😀.
• Pack Fundraising Coordinator/Popcorn Kernel - The purpose of fundraising in Pack 95 is to give scouts the opportunity to pay their own way in scouting, giving ways by which pack dues can be covered besides just paying them directly (which is also ok). In the past our main fundraisers have been to sell poinsettias and wreaths before Christmas and then to sell Lillies before Easter. We're open to other options though, such as joining the Scouting America Popcorn sales; there are very good opportunities with this, but we need someone who is willing to help with that.
• Committee Chair - Our current committee chair's cub scout will bridge to the troop in February, so we need both need to thank Mrs. Lasiter and replace her. The committee chairs role is to lead the monthly parent meetings and oversee the planning of future events. This person would be part of the Key 3, a co-equal leader in the pack with the Pack Master (Mr. Abraham) and the Charter Organization Representative (Mr. Switlik). Impress your friends and family by referring to yourself as one-third of the Key 3 in Pack 95 🤣
