Activities
A year of adventure
Our program runs on the school year, with summer camp in between. Dens meet twice a month; the pack gathers monthly. Big events are always family events.

Costs are shared, not surprise
Annual dues cover badges, adventure supplies, and pack events. Campouts and summer camp have their own modest fees. Popcorn and other pack fundraisers offset a lot of it, and scholarship help is always available — just ask, privately and without paperwork drama.
