 Welcome to our August 6th, 2012 Monday Memo Pack 280 Regatta On July 28th, 2012 Pack 280 held their Regatta. Seventy percent of the Pack and lots of volunteers showed up for this Summer Time Activity. Winners will receive their awards at the next Pack meeting and Round up being held at the Victoria Grove Community Park on August 28th, 2012. Cub Scout Pack 280 is sponsored by Victoria Grove Community Services. Meetings are held the last Tuesday of the month at Lake Mathews Elementary School in Riverside, CA at 7:00 pm. What Did You Do This Weekend? Pack 34 in Corona had a weekend full of scouting! Chartered by the Corona United Methodist Church, the scouts camped on the grounds of the church for an entire weekend. It's a convenient way to get new scouts used to camping and having fun! The boys love being together and they can't get enough of the campfire and skits! They learned to play Ultimate Frisbee, were introduced to the seven principles of Leave No Trace frontcountry guidelines, made a dutch oven desert and got to watch some of the Olympics too. A dozen boys from Pack 34 participated in the Temescal District Interfaith Worship Service on Saturday. They all had speaking parts explaining what it means to "prepare yourself for prayer" and also helped with the World Friendship Fund offering. There are so many members of CUMC that just want to see the scouts in action, so we purposely plan events that will foster these relations. We concluded the weekend with a Sunday breakfast for church members and visitors . . . right in the middle of camp!
