Summer Events: Cubs Camp June 20-24th, Hike July 17th, Giants Day Aug 21st

Hi Pack 93 Families,
Happy Summer Everyone! I hope you're enjoying some long lazy days. We have only 3 events planned this summer.


1. Cub Scout day camp is next Monday June 20-24th. 9am-3pm at Toro Regional Park. You can drive in and drop off your son. Make your way to the main parking lot on the right. Please make sure you sign him in at the sign in table, the scout staff will ensure you have all your paperwork.


Please pack a lunch and snack, plenty of water, hat and sunscreen. On Friday you might want to pack swim shorts and sun smarty/rash guard as we usually have a "wet day". We get lots of sun, so please let your child know we will be re-applying sun screen every couple of hours, unless you tell us otherwise. Please check the attendance sheet to see when you are scheduled to work at camp. If you have a ball, Frisbee or fun outdoor game, please bring it along on the day you are scheduled, so we can fill any downtown with a fun activity.


2. Wilder Ranch Hike Sunday July 17th. This is a fabulous day hike at Wilder Ranch State Park, just north of Santa Cruz. This is one of eight hikes in our hike patch series. We haven't done this hike for two years, so please try to make it.


The hike begins at the historic house and dairy, then follows the coast for a three mile easy hike. Part of the trail follows high cliffs, so parents must walk with their children. I will try to arrange a tour of the house, so hike time is yet to be determined.

3. Giants Cub Scout Day Aug 21st 1pm.  If you didn't sign up for tickets with the pack, you can purchase your own tickets online and meet up with us during the day. Their is also an opportunity to watch the Minor League San Jose Giants in July, contact me if you are interested.




Thanks, Lucy.

Hi everyone.

First let me say that we had a lot of fun at Pico Blanco this year. We only lost one family in the woods, and I am sure the searchers will find them soon.  :)


If you were at Pico this year you heard that we are doing a group effort for fund raising. We are looking for volunteers to help coordinate different activities.  Also, there will be all types of activities for every family's comfort level! 

Anyone interested in helping coordinate or have ideas, please contact Dawn at dawnalva@comcast.net.

Pico Blanco Update and May meetings

Hello everyone,
Thanks to all of you who have signed up to go on the Family Camp at Pico Blanco.  You should be getting Square invoices for the cost.  Please pay those as soon as you can.  If you have signed up and have not received an invoice, we may not have your email address.  Please let us know.

The Camp is still accepting additional signups, however they have raised the cost.  If you sign up now the fee has increased by $10, so now it is $60.  If you still want to go, please sign up on the blog.  Please do this as soon as you can so that we make sure we get a big enough camp site, but no later than May 23rd.

Some people have had problems with the sign up sheet on the blog.  It may not work well on mobile devices.  If you ever have trouble signing up for an event you can always email us directly with your information.

Our May meetings are May 9th and May 23rd.

Be sure to attend May 23rd.  This will be a special event for our boys that you will not want to miss!!

That will be our last regularly scheduled meeting of the school year.  We will most likely plan an event each month during the summer, so stay tuned for that.

Our June event will be the Day Camp at Toro Park June 20-24.  Please sign up!  We do need parents to help out with this.  We are required to have a certain number of parents there each day, depending on how many boys we have.  If you have any questions about the day camp let us know.

See you at the next Scout meeting!
