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!

Scout-O-Rama was a blast! The Pack 700 marshmallow shooter booth was a great success. We went through hundreds and hundreds of mini-marshmallows. There was a tank leading the flag ceremony. There were rope bridges, zip lines, catapults, iron forges, bb guns, tomahawk throwing, knot tying, wall climbing, trolly riding, archery, and a bazillion scouts and their families all having a really great time! We gotta do that again!

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.

13 Scouts, and 12 adult leaders and parents of Pack 700, participated in the Overnight Crew program aboard the USS Pampanito at Pier 45 in San Francisco. The USS Pampanito is a Diesel-Electric, Balao class, submarine that was active in the Pacific Theatre during WWII. It is also the same submarine used in the movie Periscope Down! We were given a dock-side tour where we learned the history of the Pampanito. We boarded the ship and stowed our gear into our bunks. And then we did what any WWII submariner could have only dreamed of… We ordered PIZZA! We all stayed up too late. And we all woke too early, as you can tell from some of faces in the pictures :-) Everybody had a great time!

Johnathon D, Ethan G, Alex H, and Ryan F represented Pack 700 this year at the 2008 Quicksilver District Pinewood Derby. All the boys did very well and finished in the top 10 in their categories. About 55 boys from all over the Santa Clara County Council, Quicksilver district, raced. All the boys had a great time and received a pinewood derby patch as a token of their participation. LED Flashlights, carabiners, and compasses were among the goodies handed out if your name called out during the raffle during breaks in the race action. Popcorn, Licorice, and lemonade was plentiful to keep the racers fueled for the event. Congratulations to all the racers!
