It’s registration time for pack 60!

Scouting offers your son opportunities and experiences that he will carry with him for the rest of his life. Cub Scouting offers boys in grades 1 – 5 a supportive environment organized by grade into dens up to 10 boys with two adult leaders. The dens meet once or twice per month to take part in activities designed to develop their self-esteem, creativity, and respect for one another as well as to learn good citizenship, health and fitness, outdoor skills, and social skills important for leadership in tomorrow’s world.

In addition to den meetings Pack 60 meets once a month from 6:30PM – 8:00PM Monday evenings early fall through the spring. We typically meet at Sudbury United Methodist Church. See what we did in 2009-20010. Individual den meeting times vary.

How do you join? Send the following information to Pack 60, c/o Neil Blicher, 21 Old Lancaster Road, Sudbury, MA 01776:

Summer Series

admin — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 22:23:02 +0000

The second event in our summer series was a bike ride around the perimeter of the Assabet River National Wildlife Refuge. It was a beautiful day for a 5 1/2 mile bike ride. We started off learning some bike maintenance and then we took our ride. We stopped several places along the way, most notable was an old military storage bunker!

Our next event is August 2nd at the church: Water rocket launch!

The Summer program has been set.
