Cub Scout Pack 6 - Cubmaster Times

September 1999

Richard Swent

Summer Meetings

We had a couple of great meetings this summer, thanks to David H. and Dave K. We met outside at Palo Verde and played games. In July the boys played soccer and Ultimate Frisbee, and in August we had a really good treasure hunt followed by a game of Ultimate Football.

Awards

There were no awards given out at the summer meetings, but there were some earned! The pack earned the National Summertime Pack Award for having 3 good summer meetings. Chris K., Joshua M., John B., Tim D. and Justin S. will be receiving the National Sumertime Award pins for attending all three summer meetings.
