Pack Crossover
May 8th at 6:30pm
Pack Crossover, our final pack meeting of the year. This is always an exciting evening as we recognize the scouts for their year of working on adventure requirements, culminating in earning that next rank and progressing along the scouting path. Scouts wear Class A uniforms.
We typically hold this Scout recognition event outdoors, as it’s a great way to celebrate together. However, with the unpredictable weather this spring, we will most likely move the event indoors. After the ceremony, there will be cupcakes for the Scouts followed by a brief social time.
Date: May 8th
Time: 6.30pm to 8:00pm
Location: United Methodist Church at 273 Vernon St, Wakefield, MA
Dress: Class A Uniforms!!!
We could use help with the setup of chairs. If any parents/scouts would like to get there 10-15 mins in advance would be awesome.
Flags by the Lakeside
May 18th & May 22th at 3.30pm
The Memorial Day Flag Placement at both Lakeside Cemetery and Forest Glade is a town wide event. Pack 722 will be attending Lakeside Cemetery and/or Forest Glade Cemetery. So you should see people you recognize at each location.
For those going, please come in your Class A uniform and if it's hot, be sure to bring a water bottle. A screwdriver is helpful to bring as it can start the hole for the flagpole. We do our best to see that every grave receives a flag.
Monday, May 18 at 3:30 PM sharp — flags go quickly
Friday, May 23 at 3:30 PM sharp — flags go quickly
More information may be posted on the town website (some years it is, other years it isn’t—but flags are always available): https://www.wakefield.ma.us/calendar/month
If you have any questions or need more details, please reach out to your Den Leaders.
