Akela and Scout Bowling Affair. We reserved several lanes and have some fun in store for you and your Scout. Cost is $10.00 per bowler for two hours, which includes unlimited bowling, shoe rental, pizza and soft drinks. Attending Scouts will earn their bowling beltloop and pin. At this point, we must limit to Akela and Scout based on the number of lanes available. Please RSVP to Susan or Tom Robertson to let us know if you plan to come. If space allows, we may be able to open this event to siblings.

Summer Camp: This year’s camp dates will be July 10, 11, and 12. This is a DAY CAMP. More details will follow, but we want you to pencil these dates onto your calendar. It’s an awesome experience for the boys.

Housekeeping
A Wolf hat was left behind at the Obermeier’s house. If you lost it, we have it! Please let us know.

Please review the Electives section in your handbook, and let us know if you would like to coordinate an outing or a meeting to accomplish some of the electives. Group participation is important, and it helps keep the program exciting for the boys. Please consider coordinating a meeting.

Help Wanted: The Pack is looking for a Camp Chairperson to coordinate sign-ups and carpools for this year’s summer camp. If you can help out, please contact Jeff Wagner at jvwagner@ra.rockwell.com.

Thank You!
