Scouting News September & October  2026

The Cub Scout Pack held their Spring Campout at which they had their Moving-Up ceremony. They had a great time going on a nature walk with the camp ranger, where they learned about animal prints, trees and plants. This summer, they will be running their Rain Gutter Regatta.

The Pack and the Troop attended the Memorial Day Ceremony at Riverside Cemetery and stayed afterwards to help pick up trash.

The Pack extends a thank you to all who have helped with their pop tab collection in the barrel in the cafeteria. The tabs are recycled to help the Ronald McDonald House, which helps families with sick children in hospitals. The Pack continues to help with worn-out flags by collecting them in their flag box in the south lobby by the coat rack. Both the Cub Scout and Boy Scout Troop have participated in flag retirement ceremonies to dispose of the worn- out flags in an honorable manner.

The Boy Scout Troop has been busy! They camped at Auglaize Village where they held a flag retirement ceremony and worked concessions for the Village. They went back in June to do the same at another event they held. The Troop worked with the Post Office to help with “Stamp Out Hunger”. They were able to bring back canned goods for the Food Pantry. A few of the Troop had the honor to conduct the opening flag ceremony for the NRA banquet. This summer they will be attending Boy Scout Summer Camp at Camp Lakota for a week.

The Troop extends their thanks to all who have dropped off pop cans and newspapers in the garage in the south parking lot. It not only helps with their conservation project of recycling but it has also helped with the cost of their activities.

Youth and adults are always welcome to attend Pack and Troop activities to learn more about our program. Any questions can be directed to Stephanie Sindel at 419-438-8268.
