Richfield Cub Scout Pack 157 Newsletter – September 2024
Hello Scout Families!
School is now in full swing for everyone and the scouting events are starting to ramp up!
We had a great turn out at our Open House on the 6th with new and old scouts!
I want to welcome all of the new scouts that will be joining us this year!
From den level events and Pack events to Popcorn sales and Thresheree, let’s make this scout year one to remember!
In this newsletter we will cover: VOLUNTEERING, Richfield Days Parade, Popcorn, Richfield Thresheree, and Pack Hike
GET INVOLVED!
Cub Scout Pack 157 needs you, our Scout parents, to help run the Pack! Find out how you can become more involved by attending one of our Parent Committee Meetings. We meet once a month at either the Richfield Village Hall, or before/after a Pack Event. Everyone’s time is valuable and we try to make the meetings accessible to everyone.
