new bobcats...

A huge congratulations to all our boys who earned their Bobcat badge at Monday Night's Pack meeting! It was great seeing all their excited faces going through the ceremony!

Fall Campout...


This year's Fall Family Campout couldn't have come at a better time! The kids were finally adjusted to being back in school, and the weather held out for us! Our annual trek to Mt. Madonna County Park is always highly anticipated by all our young boys and their families. This year was no exception.

We had cool activities, a fantastic hike, a fun campfire filled with skits, songs, and s'mores, and a ranger-led interpretive talk in a quaint outdoor amphitheater in which the kids got to see and touch animal furs from the local wildlife and learn about the plants around us.

The best part was getting to know our Pack families a little better, and spending time as a family in the great outdoors.

Pack 766 Recruitment...

This year's Fall recruitment meeting was a huge success (and can you believe our recruitment drive is still going?)! We had over 20 new families attend, along with our existing scouts. We are excited about the new families that will be joining our pack, and the enthusiasm level reached the ceiling! Thanks to the parent volunteers who helped keep the boys entertained with stomp rockets, Frisbee golf, the yummy Kettle Corn mirowave popcorn that was being sampled (that is one of the products the boys will be selling during our Fall fundraiser), and the extra yummy ice cream sundaes! It looked like everyone had a great time meeting new people and seeing old friends.

Fella's Cake Bake


One of our annual pack events is the Fella's Cake Bake. Themes cakes are made and auctioned off in a live auction at our pack meeting. What makes it so unique is the method in which all these cakes are made...cubs and their dad's (or adult partner) are the ones who come up with these creations.

This year was as exciting as ever. The average cake sold for about $25/$30, raising a total of $1,120 to help with pack outings and events. Each boy came up and presented his cake while the bidding began. Our cub master was kept quite busy while paddles were flying left and right. There were army men cakes, an Easter Bunny, a Nintendo DS cake, hot wheels, Harry Potter, and Peet's Coffee Cup cake, to name a few. Enjoy the photos from this year's Fella's Cake Bake.





Special thanks to the volunteers who organized this event (you know who you are), and to Peet's Coffee and Tea on Cochrane Road for donating a Coffee of the Month Club certificate that was auctioned off!
