Good Luck Brian

Pack 729 Bids a fond farwell io our Cubmaster Brian Burke. Brian has taken a new job and moved his family to the New England area where we hope they prosper and continue to add to their scouting adventure. Although we have lost a great leader, in the true spirit of scouting another parent has stepped forward to take his place. Before his departure Brian, Cassia and the pack committee worked together to recruit Matthew Ullom as our new Cubmaster. Matthew will assume responsibilities of the Pack this fall.

Pack 729

July 2011Campout Kelly's Island

Pack 729 kicked off the summer camping on Canadian soil.

Families and scout's enjoyed campfire cooked meals and activities that put smiles on everyones face.

Friday we ventured on a bike ride downtown.  The scouts enjoyed seining bags of dirt for gems and fossils.  They then played 18 holes of minature golf untl it began to pour rain!  The rain didn't dampen their spirits and the clouds soon passed away.  More biking lead to a off beat path that soon lead to one of Kelly's Islands best hidden secrets.  Kelly's Island had one of the oldest distilleries in Ohio.  They don't produce wine any longer since the old castle like distillery burned down several times over the past century!  Walking through the half demolished twenty foot stone walls was amazing.  The cellar remains pristine.

Saturday we biked to Glacial Grooves.  After we kayaked in the crystal clear waters off Kelly's Island Park.  Hiking soon came after as we stumbled upon an old smoke house and even an old half rusted out 1940's Ford car.

What a great Scouting Adventure

Hope to see you next year!
