A Scout Parade (wear your uniforms and bring your unit flags) at 5:45pm, then the game at 6:35pm.

National Summertime Pack Award

The National Summertime Pack Award is made to encourage a pack to be active when school is out for the summer, by doing one activity per month in June, July, and August. This is an individual recognition for Scouts; however, a Pack can qualify for the certificate and flag streamer by planning and conducting three summertime pack activities. Our National Summertime Pack Award Unit Planner has been updated for 2023!

Eagle Scout Graduation Honor Cords

They've earned their Eagle, and now it's time for them to soar! Celebrate your Scout's accomplishment with Eagle Scout Graduation Honor Cords. These special cords are red, white and blue double cords with a custom silver Eagle charm attached, to be worn with the high school's cap and gown on graduation day. Our Scout Shop has plenty of Honor Cords in stock.
