ABOUT SCOUTING EVENTS
Pack 440 Meetings
Pack meetings are held every 3rd Monday of the month at 6:00 p.m. at the church annex. Please get there early if you'd like to help set up chairs for our meeting. Attire is always Class A uniform (button-up). Occasionally we have more active meetings outside, and we'll let you know via email if that is in the plans.
Parent Leadership Meetings
Parent Leadership Meetings are open to all parents of our scouts. Usually, they occur on the first Monday of each month. This is a great opportunity to help make our pack the best it can be by adding your voice to the planning of activities and other decisions about how the pack runs. Kiddos are welcome to play outside while we have our meeting.
Raingutter Regatta
Held at the church. This is an annual event that we have so much fun with. Come with your awesome vessel and your powerful lungs. Do your best to beat last year's champ, and cheer on your denmates in between!

Whether you're a first-time parent getting ready to compete in the boat race or a Scout Leader looking for new ways to make the most of this year's event, read on to learn more about these five super quick and practical Raingutter Regatta tips (FOUND here).
Fall and Spring Campouts!
Locations and all the details will be sent via email. Campouts experiences are a MUST! This is an awesome weekend of fun & scouting activities with all your friends! It doesn't get better than this. No screens, no devices, just games, smores, and adventures with your den. Come Friday for bike-riding with your buds and running around in nature. Saturday is packed with scouting adventures, games and food. Leave Sunday with a full belly provided by our awesome Camp Committee and volunteers!
Pinewood Derby
Build those derby cars, y'all! And weigh them carefully. You've got to beat the reining champs!
Our Den Leaders and scouts get very competitive for this, but thankfully, you don't have to be the fastest to win. We've got awards for most creative, uniqueness, wierdness and more. Come on out and have some fun!
Blue & Gold Celebration
The biggest party of the year! Celebrate the origin of scouting and cheer on the Arrow of Light scouts as they cross over! Part ceremony, part feast, and part celebration and recognition of the advancement of the oldest scouts in the pack, this event is packed with fun and tradition. Be sure to be there for delicious food, games and a great party.
Rocket Day
Come blast rockets into space! Well, not that high, but almost! This is a fun outdoor event where scouts build their own rockets, then see how they fly! Afterward, we find some shade for some treats!
Spring or Fall "Overnight"
Once a year, we take the pack on an overnight adventure somewhere really fun! In the last couple years, we have spent the night at NASA, the Lexington, and Sea World! These are really epic experiences where the kids get an insider and behind-the-scenes view of very special places. These experiences are not included in the dues, because the venues are far from free, but if you can swing them, they are absolutely worth it!
