It may only be March but it's time to start the planning process for the upcoming program year. We'll provide you with training and information on how to put on your annual Pack Planning Meeting. We share with you tips and information on how to get more of your parents involved. We know that strong Packs and Dens have lots of parental involvement, so we want to help you navigate the process of parental involvement. We have information on the rescheduled Cub Scout Freeze-Out dates, the annual Manatoc Fish Fry, upcoming district Pinewood Derbies, and information on this summer's Day Camp, Overnight Camp, and Cub Summer Hikes. Plus, we have information on upcoming training opportunities, including Wood Badge, and an important update to our council's training policy.
