Pack Rules/Etiquette

July 19, 2008

Introduction

The monthly Pack Night is an opportunity for each of the dens to gather together and celebrate their accomplishments. The scouts are awarded for their advancements and are congratulated for their efforts. It is also a time for the dens to show their scouting spirit by showing a project or to perform a skit and most importantly to have some fun.

It is important that all of the scouts and parents know that we want to make our pack nights fun and safe for all scouts. Pack night is not the time to allow the scouts to get out of control. As parents it is your responsibility to watch over your scout before and after the pack meeting. Our rules are simple and logical. But, it's up to all of our parents to help enforce the rules.

Our goal is to have a successful pack night by keeping the meeting to one-hour, have some fun and make sure that none of the scouts, visitors, siblings or parents get injured. We are guests of the school, and we do not want to wear out our welcome. Please review the information below, regarding the Pack Night rules and etiquette.
