About Pack 30
|
updated: 10/09/08 |
So, who is Pack 30?
- Cub
Scout Pack 30 is chartered by the Fairmount Elementary PTO.
- We
are located in St. Peters, MO.
- We
currently have seven Dens and about 40 Scouts.
- We
are part of the Boone Trails District and Greater St. Louis Area
Council.
I’ve signed up with Pack 30, what happens now?
- You
will be assigned to a Den and contacted by your new Den Leader.
Refer to the Dens
page for a list of Dens and their Leaders.
What
is a Den and Den Meeting?
- Each
boy is assigned to a “Den”; a group of about 6-8 boys of the same
age.
- The
Dens meet 1-2 times per month, usually at one of the member’s home,
to have fun and work toward completing activities and achievements.
The Scout’s Families and Den Leader determine meeting times
and locations.
What
is the Pack and Pack Meetings?
- All
of the Dens at Fairmount make up the Pack (Pack 30).
- Once
a month, all the Dens meet together in a Pack Meeting.
The Pack Meetings are for all of the Scouts and their Families;
and consist of Awards, Recognition, Songs & Skits, and
Announcements (all of the boy’s major awards and badges are
presented at Pack Meetings). We
try to keep the meeting to about a half-hour, and then we have some
fun – an activity or special guest.
- Unless
otherwise announced, Pack Meetings are the 4th Tuesday
of each month at 7:00 PM in the Fairmount Elementary School
Cafeteria.
What
is a Committee Meeting?
- Pack
30 is run by the Pack Committee.
The Committee Meeting is an Adult Only administrative and
planning meeting – this is where the business end of our
organization takes place. All
Den Leaders and Pack Leaders attend the meeting; however, any Adult is
welcome and encouraged to attend the Committee Meetings.
Scouting is a volunteer organization, and we are always looking
for parents who are willing to help, even in the smallest way.
The Pack cannot survive if we do not have sufficient adult
leadership.
- Unless
otherwise announced, Committee Meetings are the 2nd
Monday of each month at 7:00 PM in the Fairmount Elementary
School Cafeteria.
How
will I know what the Pack is doing?
- The
best way to stay informed is to attend your Den Meetings and the Pack
Meetings.
- Upcoming
Pack Activities are discussed at the monthly Committee Meetings &
Pack Meetings, and your Den Leader will relay information to you at
your Den Meetings.
- Periodically,
a Pack Newsletter is published and will be delivered to all pack
members through your Den Leader (it is also available on the Pack 30
Website on the Newsletters
page).
- Email
reminders of upcoming pack activities are also sent out a few days in
advance of each activity; contact your Den Leader to sign up for the
Pack 30 Email List.
- At
any time, if you have questions, feel free to call your Den Leader or
any of the Pack Leaders.
- And
of course, check the Pack 30 website on a regular basis.
Who
are the Pack Leaders?
- The
Pack Committee Members are the leaders of our Pack, and consist of the
following committee positions:
- Cubmaster
- Assistant
Cubmaster
- Committee
Chair
- All
Den Leaders
- Treasurer
- Membership
Chair
- Awards
Chair
- Secretary
/ Newsletter Editor
- Outdoor
Classroom Coordinator

- All of our leaders are Parents of Scouts, who
have graciously volunteered their time and effort to make this program
successful.
- Refer
to the Pack
Committee page for a list of the current committee members.
How can I help the Pack?
- There
are many ways you can help Pack 30:
- Please
consider being a Den Leader or Assistant Leader; it is a very
rewarding experience, and you will make a huge impact on the lives
of our young Scouts.
- Or
consider serving in a Pack Committee Position.
- Or
volunteer to help plan an individual Pack Activity.
- We
are always in need of new volunteers, due to the simple fact that
the boys graduate from Cub Scouts and move on the Boy Scouts, and
of course their Parents go with them!
Where can I get more information about Scouting?
We
are very excited that you are a part of Cub Scouts and Pack 30 --
Welcome!!
