Volunteer Spotlight: Our Pack 292 Families!

As we wrap up our Volunteer Spotlight series, we want to recognize one final group of volunteers—our amazing Cub Scout families, friends, and supporters.

Hooksett Cub Scout Pack 292 is so much more than den leaders and committee members. It is the parents who stay to help clean up after a meeting, the grandparents who cheer on our Scouts, the families who volunteer for a popcorn shift, cook a meal at camp, help set up Pinewood Derby, lead a hike, or simply step in when an extra hand is needed.

Every act of service, no matter how big or how small, helps make Pack 292 the welcoming, fun, and successful pack that it is today. Because of your time, talents, and dedication, our Scouts have opportunities to camp, hike, serve their community, build friendships, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

There are so many ways to support Scouting in Hooksett. Maybe you'd like to volunteer at an event or become a leader. Maybe your way of helping is buying popcorn from one of our Scouts this fall, helping them earn their way through Cub Scouts and summer camp. Or perhaps you'll support our biggest service project of the year by donating to Scouting for Food this November. Together, we can help keep the Hooksett Food Pantry stocked and support neighbors in our community who could use a helping hand.

We also want to take a moment to give a special thank you to the Hooksett Lions Club, our chartered organization. Thank you for believing in Cub Scout Pack 292, supporting our mission, and continuing to stand beside our Scouts and families. Your dedication, encouragement, and partnership help make it possible for us to provide a strong Cub Scout program for the youth of Hooksett and the surrounding communities. We are truly grateful for all that you do.

If you've been following this Volunteer Spotlight series and have thought, "Maybe I could help," we'd love to welcome you to the team. There is a place for everyone, and no contribution is too small. Whether you can volunteer once a year or every month, you'll be making a difference in a Scout's life. Maybe you don’t have children in this age group any longer and miss seeing life through the eyes of a child. (Don’t worry, all our volunteers go through training and background checks). Interested in getting involved? Please reach out to [email protected] to learn more.

Thank you to every Scout, every parent, every volunteer, every supporter, and our chartered organization who makes Cub Scout Pack 292 what it is-a family scouting community for girls and boys. Because of this incredible community, we continue to grow, improve, and create meaningful experiences for our Scouts. Here's to another year of adventure, service, friendship, and fun. Together, let's continue to make a difference—one Scout, one family, and one act of kindness at a time. Always doing our best!

Volunteer Spotlight: Heidi Fraser

This week's Volunteer Spotlight shines on Heidi Fraser!

Heidi has been involved with Pack 292 in many different ways over the years. Along with her husband, John Danforth, and their three Eagle Scouts—William, Sam, and Emma—Heidi has always been committed to helping Pack 292 succeed and ensuring every Scout has a great experience.

Today, Heidi continues to be one of the friendly, welcoming faces that new Cub Scout families meet when they join our pack. She brings positive energy, a wealth of Scouting knowledge, and creative ideas that help keep our program growing and thriving. Whether she's answering questions, encouraging a new family, or lending a hand wherever it's needed, Heidi is always ready to help.

Heidi also serves as our town's Scouting for Food Coordinator. She believes that the best results come from working together as a team and does an incredible job rallying our Scouts, leaders, and families to serve the Hooksett community. Through her leadership, our Scouts learn the value of teamwork, service, and giving back to others. She knows it’s important to have strong succession plans and to work together.

Volunteers like Heidi show that every talent has a place in Scouting. Maybe you're someone who enjoys welcoming new families, helping organize community service projects, or sharing your ideas to make our pack even better. We are always up for new ideas. We'd love to have you join our volunteer team! No job is too small, and every helping hand makes a difference.

Volunteer Spotlight: Wayne & Meredith Goertel!

This week's Volunteer Spotlight shines on Wayne and Meredith Goertel! Wayne and Meredith joined Pack 292 when their son, Collin, became a Lion Cub. As their family grew in Scouting, so did their commitment to our pack. Today, they're continuing the adventure with their daughter, Mallory, while remaining two of our most dependable volunteers.

Wayne has worn many hats over the years. He has served as our Committee Chair, Treasurer, and now continues to support the pack as one of our Leaders at Large. He has been instrumental in helping our pack grow and modernize, always looking for ways to make things run more smoothly and improve the experience for our Scouts and families. In recognition of his outstanding dedication, Wayne was also honored as Pack 292's first Volunteer of the Year.

One of Wayne's greatest passions is getting Scouts outdoors. He loves introducing youth to hiking, planning adventures for Scouts of all ages and abilities, and helping them build confidence one trail at a time. Whether it's a beginner-friendly walk or a more challenging hike, Wayne enjoys sharing his love of the outdoors with our pack.

Meredith has been just as dedicated. She served as a den leader throughout Collin's Cub Scout journey and now enjoys watching Mallory create her own Scouting memories. Whether it's a den meeting, Pinewood Derby, Chuckwagon, Spooktacular, or another pack event, Meredith is always ready to jump in wherever she's needed.

Together, Wayne and Meredith embody what it means to be part of the Cub Scout Pack 292 family. They are the volunteers you can always count on to step in, fill a gap, and help make every event a success. Their willingness to serve wherever the need arises has made a lasting impact on our Scouts and their families.

Would you like to become part of a team like Wayne and Meredith? Pack 292 is always looking for parents and family members who are willing to lend a hand. Whether you can help at one event or take on a larger role, there's a place for everyone. No job is too small, and every volunteer helps make Scouting possible. Maybe you have a particular skill that you want to share to help the scouts prepare for the future.

Interested in joining our volunteer team? Please reach out to [email protected] to learn more.

Thank you, Wayne and Meredith, for your years of dedication, flexibility, and leadership. Your willingness to say "yes" whenever the pack needs help is one of the reasons Hooksett Pack 292 continues to thrive. We are incredibly grateful for everything you do!

Its uniform pass down season (photo is Miss Emily removing badges to pass a uniform to a younger sibling), which has us wondering….how often do you wash your uniform shirt? I’d say ours are about once a year when I’m sewing badges 🫣😬

Volunteer Spotlight: Jesse Marchand

This week's Volunteer Spotlight shines on Jesse Marchand!

Jesse grew up in Scouting, and today he's continuing that tradition with his son, Ben. Together, they've loved being part of Hooksett Pack 292, and Jesse has become one of the dedicated volunteers who helps keep our pack running behind the scenes.

Jesse currently serves as our Pack Treasurer and Grubmaster. As treasurer, he carefully manages the pack's finances, making sure the money raised through fundraising goes right back into providing great experiences for our Scout families. As Grubmaster, he's also part of the team that keeps everyone well-fed during campouts and pack cookouts—because every great Scouting adventure is even better with a good meal!

With Ben entering his Webelos year, now is the perfect time for someone to begin shadowing Jesse as he prepares for the transition to Scouts BSA over the next two years. If you have an accounting background, enjoy working with numbers, or would simply like to learn how our pack's finances are managed, we'd love to have you join the team. Or maybe your passion is cooking and you'd enjoy helping prepare meals for our Scout families during campouts and events. There are plenty of ways to get involved and no job is too small!

Interested in volunteering? We'd love to hear from you! Please reach out to [email protected] to learn more about how you can help.

Thank you, Jesse, for your years of service, your dedication, and the many ways you support Pack 292. Whether you're balancing the books or serving meals around the campfire, your work helps create an amazing Scouting experience for our families. We truly appreciate everything you do!
