Welcome!

Pack 231 is a thriving Cub Scout unit including families with elementary students in Chadds Ford, Hillendale, Pocopson and neighboring private schools. The Pack is chartered by the Longwood Rotary and run by parent volunteers. Cub Scouts is a family-focused program designed for boys and girls in K-5th.

We hold meetings and plan activities throughout the school year. We emphasize fun while promoting the purposes and values of Cub Scouting. Click here for more information about joining Pack 231.

Summer Activity: Letterboxing

Pack

Message:

Please see below for an opportunity to learn about Letterboxing. The program is offered by a Girl Scout for her Silver Award project and is open to all Cub Scout families. Participation in this activity will count toward the Cub Scout Summer Activity Award.

Find attached a letterboxing program on August 13 or 14th at the John Chadd house in Chadd's Ford. This program is offered by one of my scouts, Abby Voytilla, for her Silver Project. It is a family event, not just for scouts - so bring your friends! Registration is required for each person (not each scout) because part of the fee is for the use of John Chadd house facilities. The program is from 12-5, but it's not a 5 hour program, so late arrivals are more than OK.

If you have any questions, contact Mike Ritter and they will be forwarded to Abby.

Please consider attending if at all possible. The girls learn many things by putting on these programs and community participation is so important.

Thanks so much!

2011 Summer Camp Opportunities

Pack

Message:

Resident camp registration form now available below...

Many of you are already working on your summer plans. The attached flyer outlines Cub Scout summer camp opportunities for 2011. These are great programs and we hope you will consider them. Summer camps are a great way for your scout to continue scouting activities through the summer (he'll get a big head start on his next rank requirements) and have a lot of fun in the process.
