Summertime Pack Awards for Pack and Scouts

We once again had an active summer with several pack activities over the summer.  This means that our pack has once again earned a National Summertime Pack Award.  This award is earned by having pack activities during the June through August summer months.

On June 1, the pack hiked Shell Ridge Open Space in Walnut Creek.  It was a beautiful day with vistas as far as the eye could see.  Scouts who attended were: James, Nikoas, Xander, Zachary, Ryan and Owen.  Good jobs scouts!



Cubmaster Llata organized a fishing trip to Los Vaqueros Reservoir on June 22. A good time was had by all who attended.  Attending the fishing trip were scouts James, Nikolas and Sam.  Well done boys!

The main event in July was the Muir District's summer day camp for cub scouts with our pack's Mrs. Lang once again serving as camp director.  The camp featured arts and crafts, archery, woodworking, bb gun, flag football, ultimate frisbee and astronomy to name a few of the activities.  Here's Ryan and Zachary on the archery range with our very own Cubmaster Llata serving as the range master.



Scouts who attended summer camp were: Tyler, James. Nikolas, Xander, Leo, Zachary, Ryan and Owen.

The pack wrapped up July with a bowling outing at Diablo Bowl. Although there were no perfect games recorded, scouts Jacob, James, Nikolas and Xander had a blast!

In August, the pack held two events: frisbee golf in Walden park where they have a nine-hole course and a bike ride covering nearly nine miles through Concord and Walnut Creek that included stops at Heather Farms and Arbolado Park. Trying their hand at frisbee golf were scouts Logan M, James, Nikolas, Xander, Sam, Austin A, Ryan and Antonio. The bike included scouts James, Xander, Zachary, Ryan and Owen.

In addition to the pack earning its summertime pack award, the following scouts have also earned their summertime pack award pins for having participated in at least one pack activity each month of the summer: bear pin earners are Zach, Nikolas and Xander with Webelo pin earners being Zach, Ryan and Owen. Well done scouts!
