Cub Scout Pack 7 FUMC Huntington, WV

01/01/2023

Info about Pack 61, Cubmaster Jeremy Reed
Meets at Trinity Episcopal Church, across street from FUMC on the south-east corner of 5th Ave & 11th Street.

Our next meeting is January 16th at 6pm, we meet every 2 weeks. The BSA Troop meets on the other weeks.
We are very outdoor oriented, doing many outdoor activities and camping with Cubs at least twice a year.
We recharter in January and try to run ranks January to January.
Our Cubs cross over to the next rank at our Blue & Gold Ceremony, this year that is in March.
We will be willing to catch any Cubs that are behind on rank up so they can crossover on time.
We accept all kids and have a wide range of different children represented in our Pack.
We use a Facebook Group page for all announcements.

If anyone has any questions they may contact me through text or phone at 304*972*9116

The trustees at FUMC voted to not continue Cub scouts and so, sadly, Pack 7 will no longer be meeting. I have suggestions for other Packs.

Coed Pack 61 Mondays at Trinity Episcopal; 21 Thursdays at Highlawn Presby; 25 Mondays at Crossroads UMC.

61 Mondays at 6 pm on alternate weeks starting 1-16-23. This is the other Pack that recruits at Southside and Meadows.

21 every Thursday 6:30 starting 1-5-23

25 Mondays 6:30

I may volunteer with Pack 61, but I don't know yet.

John McAulay is likely not continuing because Zach isn't hot on it.

Tim Jamison and Brent and Deacon are in discussions about that block of Webelos going TOGETHER SOMEPLACE.

Don't forget what I said about ALL Cubs (except Lions) needing to earn Bobcat badge FIRST?

Have you been working on that at home?
