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!



On July 15th we will hold a Shooting Sports Day at Camp Josepho from 4-6 pm.  Sign up HERE to participate.  Cost is $25 per scout.  Please submit payment through Venmo @bsapack227.  If you need to pay by check, please contact pack treasurer, Chris Mansfeld (cpm1377@gmail.com), to make arrangements.  Sign up and pay no later than July 8th.  Scouts wear Class A uniforms to this event.



Our Donut Ministry continues throughout the summer.  Please help support our chartered organization!  All participants get a free donut!  Sign up HERE to participate.

A Scout is Helpful

As you know, many people have been displaced by the Thomas Fire.  If you would like to help those affected by this disaster, please consider donating gift cards!  Restaurants, Department Stores, Grocery Stores, Target, etc.
Any amount is appreciated (even unused balances or gift cards you have around the house that you'll never use).  Tiger parent, Matthew Collins (Kiran's dad), will be collecting gift cards and delivering them to evacuees in Ventura.  He is also accepting donations of pet food.  If you would like to help, please bring your donations to the food drive event on Saturday or the shooting sports event on Sunday.  Matthew will be at both events to accept your generous donations.

Santa Comes to Agoura Food Drive

It's time for the annual "Santa Comes to Agoura" food drive.  Once again, Pack 227 will be helping with this worthwhile community event.  There are three opportunities for our boys to serve others.  First, we will be collecting food donations at Trader Joe's in Agoura on Saturday, November 14, 2015, from 10 am-4 pm.  Next, we will assist with sorting food on Friday, November 20, from approximately 4:30-8:30 pm at the Agoura Hills DIY center.  Finally, we will help pack and distribute food to the needy in our community on Saturday, December 12, from 8:30-10:30 am also at the DIY Center.  This is a required event for our scouts.  Each boy should sign up to help with at least one food drive activity.  If you are available for more than one shift, extra help is appreciated!  Boys should wear their full Class A uniforms.  This is our main service project of the year and we look forward to the opportunity to do a good turn for people in our own community.
