Richfield Cub Scout Pack 157 Newsletter – August 2022

Hello Scout Families!!!

We hope everyone has been having a GREAT summer!

We have been planning for our next event, The Richfield Days Parade!

Again this year we will be entering a float into the parade. Let’s see if we can be last year’s 2nd place win!!

This year’s float will feature a campground scene with some Scouts roasting Marshmallows and a Fishing Scene with some Scouts Catching fish!

All of the Webelos 2’s will be riding on the float. A couple of Webelos 1’s will be carrying the NEW Pack Banner.

All other dens are to be walking along side the float and tossing out candy and wristbands!

This will be a FUN event where we can show off our Pack to all of Richfield!

Please see below for sign ups for the Float Build and Walking in the Parade.

We hope to see everyone at the end of the month!

-Richfield Cub Scout Pack 157 Parent Committee

JOIN OUR COMMITTEE!

We are always looking for volunteers to help us coordinate and put on the Pack events. Without our Parent Volunteers/Parent Committee Members, our Pack would not have as great of a program as we have. We are looking for an EVENT COORDINATOR, FUNDRAISER CHAIR & ADDITIONAL PARENT COMMITTEE MEMBERS. Our Parent Committee meets once a month after an event to discuss past events and plan future events. We have a GREAT group of people that truly care about making every Scout’s experience a great one!! If you are interested in volunteering to help with an event or becoming a part of our Parent Committee, please reach out to ANY leader for more information.

Join our Pack!!
