Summer Updates

Summer is off to a great start for the Cub Scouts of Pack 227!  We had a roaring good time at our Zoo Sleepover and nine of our scouts "Owned the Podium" at Day Camp.  A big "Thank You" to all the parent volunteers who helped make day camp a success.  We had parents helping with set up, programs, den leaders, and clean up.  Way to go Pack 227!
