Cub Scout Pack 700

We held our annual Cub Mobile races this past weekend in the parking lot of Jackson Elementary. As you can see from the photos, we had a great turn out! 9 dens, 9 cub mobiles, and about 50 cubs mixed it up on a perfect Sunday afternoon. We had a couple of spectacular crashes, some amazing pit-crew heroics, and even got to enjoy a tri-tip sandwich. It was a great day of racing. The cars all looked amazing! Although, at the end of the racing, some paint jobs were not quite in the same condition as when they arrived. But you know what they say… rubbing is racing! Big kudos to all the leaders and parents that helped out with the ramp, running the race, the audio and sound effects, hot dogs, sandwiches, and of course, building all those incredible cub mobiles.

It has been about a month since our last post. The summer has wizzed by this year and most of the cubs are back in school. Pack 700 had a great summer of events:

• The Morgan Hill Aquatic Center
• Cub and Webelos Camp
• 4th of July Parade
• San Jose Giants Game
• Cub Day In The Park
• Pack 700 Family Camp

Here are some images from the Giants Game and Family Camp…

Pack 700 sponsored the Quicksilver District’s participation in the Morgan Hill 4th of July parade which is presented each year by Morgan Hill, Independance Day, Inc.  We had great participation from Packs all over the area.  This year’s theme was “Rolling to Cubscouting.”  We had an armada of skateboards, scooters, and cub mobiles.  Several of our newest Tiger Scouts joined us for their first official Scouting event.  It was a perfect morning in Morgan Hill for the Parade.  The light breeze provided just enough wind to keep the flags moving and keep us cool.

What happens when you mix 110 Webelos, 70 parents and scout leaders, and clouds, and clouds of dust and dirt?  You get Camp Chesebrough Webelos Overnight Camp!  Pack 700, as usual, made their presence known with 10 boys and 7 leaders and parents.  We also made some new friends in Pack 780 with 3 of their Webelos who tagged along with us.  It was incredibly boring.  We only did BB guns, archery, rock climbing, built and raced off-road cub mobiles, learned geocaching, found banana slugs, built camp fires, learned about Indian culture, and earned our Readyman and Outdoorsman Webelos Activity badges.

School is not even out yet and we have had our first summer event.  Splash-a-Palooza was held at the Morgan Hill Aquatic Center.  It has been cool here, but the weather cooperated long enough for everyone to enjoy a really great day.  We even met some new families that are interested in joining Scouts!

The Morgan Hill Lions Club annual pancake breakfast was very successful.  Held at the Morgan Hill Recreation Center, flap jacks, sausage, scrambled eggs, coffee and juice was served en masse.  By 9 AM there was a long line of folks waiting for a great breakfast.  Tigers, Wolves, and Bears from Pack 700 were on hand to make sure the dining tables were cleared quickly and made ready for the next round of hungry customers.
