We have four scouts bridging onto boy scouting, with two scouts going to Troop 465 and two scouts going to Troop 370.

We will also do a little huddle after the meeting with parents to go over a few details for our upcoming pack camping trip the weekend of May 23-24 to Camp Tamarancho in Marin County.

The other main upcoming event is the advancement ceremony for the remainder of our scouts on May 15 (Thursday) at 7:00pm at Sugurloaf Open Space in Walnut Creek.

2013 Webeloree

A great time was had by our four Webelos who attended this event!  And what an event it was.  In addition to earning their Geologist, Outdoorsman, Forester and Naturalist activity pins for Webelos, our scouts had an overall great time camping out with about 200 other Webelos.

The scouts learned to make a meal in a foil, learned about making a campfire, participated in their own skits at the campfire, watched a flag retirement ceremony, got to see a great view of the new Bay Bridge, and learned a lot about nature, rocks and the outdoors.

Webelo Scientist Activity Badge

This is an opportunity for our 4th and 5th grade cub scouts. Let's plan on meeting as a group at the entrance to the church at 645pm. Please plan on attending in your uniforms. Our scouts are already signed in so no need to RSVP on your own.

Webelo Graduation Ceremony

Congrats to our five second-year Webelos on their graduation to Boy Scouting!

We celebrated the occasion at our April Pack meeting with the presentation of Arrow of Light awards to four of the scouts.  This award is the only one that goes with the scouts from cub scouting to boy scouting. On hand to present the award were boy scouts with the Order of the Arrow.

For the graduation ceremony, we had scouts from Troops 370 and 484 to welcome the five new boy scouts to their troops.  We had two scouts joining Troop 370 and the other three joining Troop 484.  After the ceremonies, our new boy scouts led the younger scouts in a game.  The evening wrapped up with juice and cake.

We look forward to our younger scouts one day being able to have this experience as they move forward.  Here's a short video summary of the ceremonies.
