Cub Scout Pack 322 - Summertime Pack Award

Summertime Pack Award

Cub Scouting is a year-round program.... September thru August. As such, it is the responsiblitiy of every Scouting unit to ensure a quality Cub program, even during the summer. During the months of June, July, and August Cub Scouts and their families can participate in Scouting activities that are educational and fun! A full summer program keeps a pack healthy, parents interested, and Cub Scouts eager to register for another year.

Participating in these Summertime activities also gives the Cub Scout, his Den, and the Pack an opportunity to earn the National Summertime Pack Award, an important component of the Quality Unit Program.

The Requirements:

All the pack has to do is plan and conduct a monthly pack activity for June, July, and August. The whole idea is to keep your pack together and doing things during the summer when boys have the most free time.

The Recognition:

A pack committee member should keep the record of activities, participation of dens, and attendance of Cub Scouts. Submit the application form to the local council service center as soon after your August activity as possible. An appropriate pack meeting ceremony should be planned for the presentation of the awards, which are:

For the Pack - A full-color certificate suitable for framing and an attractive streamer for the pack flag.

For the Dens of the award earning Pack - A den ribbon for each den that has 50 percent or more of its boys participating in each of the three activities.

For the boys of the award earning Pack - A pin for each boy who takes part in, at least three of, the summer months' activities.
