Pam Miscikowski is Pack 788’s leader of the year!!!
Every year we get to recognize a Leader from our Pack to be honored at the Cardinal District Recognition Dinner. Pack 788 is blessed with a tremendous leadership team, individuals who give a large amount of their time and skills in providing the boys a safe, fun, and challenging learning environment. However, there is one leader who stands out as a vital part of this process. That leader is Pam; voted by her fellow leaders, verified by the parents and confirmed by the smiles of the boys of Pack 788.
Please send Pam a congratulations and thank you via email ( miscikowski@comcast.net ) or next time you see her.
Just as a reminder: Some points from previous communications regarding Parent participation and uniforms.
“REMINDER: Parents may NOT drop their scouts off for Pack meetings and Pack events. At least one parent or other adult must accompany and supervise the scout at these events. No exceptions. Thank you.”
Although we encourage Parents to participate in Den Meetings, however except for Tiger Den Meetings we do not require Parents accompany their scout during the Meeting. Until the scout is retrieved by the parent, guardian, or authorized adult the scout must remain with the Den Leader. No meeting your scout in the parking lot or in front of the building is allowed.
All scouts should have complete uniforms (and books) by now. If you are missing anything or missing some items from Pack 788, please contact your Den Leader directly.
“Uniforms: Make sure that your son has and wears a complete uniform (hat, uniform shirt, neckerchief, neckerchief slide, official belt). We ask that boys wear either the official dark blue cub scout pants or shorts OR some other dark blue shorts or pants—blue jeans would be acceptable. Webelos wear a tan shirt. Boys should arrive at pack meetings in complete uniform with their shirts tucked in and looking neat. Please NO shoes with wheels at den or pack events!
Our Class B T-shirts are acceptable for Den Meetings, hikes, camping, and other events as directed by Den Leaders. The T-Shirts are also available for leaders, parents and other scout supporters for $15. Returning scouts should already have a Class B T-shirt and starting this year all scouts will receive a new Class B T-shirt as part of the Pack Activity Fee. New scouts received a Pack 788 Baseball Cap included with their membership.”
The Leaders of Pack 788 will communicate the proper attire as it relates to future den events.
We hope you are all doing well. The Scouting year is about to get started. We want to make sure we offer your scout a fun, engaging, and fulfilling program this year within the health and safety restrictions of the pandemic. Help us in our planning efforts by completing the survey that is linked. Your responses will help us to know the best way to reach everyone this year and provide a scouting program that is FUN!
Monday 6:30pm, Ocotber 12th - GCC Building ("Garage"),
Christ Episcopal Church, 5000 Pouncey Tract Road, Glen Allen
Leadership decided "soft" start of Scouting year this year in order to give the parents (both new, considering or returning) an opportunity to ask leadership questions, make comments and get the administrative tasks (filling out paperwork and paying initial dues) completed before the Pack788 meetings start.
So stop by on Monday, 6:30pm at Christ Episcopal Church. The meeting will consist of a 15 minute presentation, 15 minutes of group questions and then the rest of meeting will be completing the tasks and such.
Although the Scouts will not be meeting that night, we will have activities for children that need to accompany the parents (games and such).
Good evening. All parents of both new and returning scouts are required to attend the parents meeting on 10/2. We will be discussing all of the exciting events we have scheduled for the year as well expectations for parents and scouts. It is an exciting time for Pack 788 as enrollment of new scouts across all dens has increased. We look forward to seeing you all on Monday. Den meetings will start at 6:30 and the parents meeting will start at 6:45.
