New to Scouting

Welcome to Pack 122

Scouting is fun with a purpose, directed towards helping boys and girls become happy, healthy, useful citizens. Our goal for your Scout is to have fun and grow.

We want your Scout to Try New Things, Provide Service to Others, Build Self-Confidence and Reinforce Ethical Standards (i.e. Be a Good Person).

We want your Scout to have exposure to a variety of fun outdoor activities and encourage them to learn about the world around them. Let the adventures begin...

Where do all the patches go?

HELP!!! It's my first time camping...

If this is your first time camping, don't go to REI and purchase all new gear. Go to Big 5, Walmart and Costco to purchase a 6 person tent for a family of 4. Remember, this is a new activity for your family and kids break everything...Try to make a small investment. Or borrow gear if you can the first time. Below is a good guide to read.
