Parent Survey
I have only received one survey back so far... could you please take the time to complete the attached survey and email it back to survery@pack97scouts.com by this FRIDAY? I did also have someone email that they couldn't open the word version - so I am also attaching a pdf file. If it is easier - you can print the pdf and either fill it out, scan it and email it to me and/or just type in your responses in a regular email. Your responses are very important in planning our year - please forward them to us as soon as possible!
Calendar Planning Meeting
Anyone interested in serving as a leader or committee member this year and/or anyone interested in helping us plan our calendar for this scout year is invited to join us on August 7th at 10am for our Calendar Planning meeting. I will be hosting this at my house - so please let me know if you plan to attend and I'll forward you directions. Come ready with ideas, pricing, dates for special events, etc. Sometimes this meeting takes a few hours - sometimes it takes all day! Either way - we'll make sure we have enough food! Come share your ideas or email them to me for inclusion!

Unfortunately, we were not able to negotiate the wonderful deal we had last time! In fact, it does not appear we will be getting any kind of discount off of their advertised prices at this time. The package we are leaning toward is the Laser Tag and Game card option listed as $12.95 on their website. If you would like to go for another option which includes bowling and/or jump house; those are available as well. For directions and a listing of the options available; please visit their website at
