Dear Pack 408 Families,

As we transition leadership, I wanted to thank you all for giving me the wonderful opportunity to serve as your Cubmaster. Pack 408 has been a part of my life since my son was six. He is now 17 and applying to college! I still remember the first recruiting event we attended — the Bike Rodeo at the old township building. Olivia was just a baby, and I’ll never forget how Basha, our Cubmaster Joe’s wife, grabbed her up and held her like family. We’ve stayed close friends ever since. And I can still picture Gavin running up to me, saying, “I want to be a Cub Scout.”

My son earned his Eagle rank this past March, and I couldn’t be more proud. Watching him grow into an incredible young person has been one of my greatest joys, and Scouting has played a huge role in shaping who he is today. Along the way, he formed lifelong friendships—Brian and Billy, both Pack 408 alumni, are still some of his closest and bestest friends. Last summer, I even had the chance to go to Seabase with Gavin and Brian, and it was one of the best experiences we’ve ever shared (I mean best time ever! Highly recommend 😀). And now I have the privilege of watching my daughter grow through Scouting, and I hope it gives her the same confidence and opportunities it gave her brother.

I’m not going far! Olivia and I are heading over to Troop 3 in Ambler, and I truly hope to see many of you again.

If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to email me!

Yours in Scouting,

Jenn

Here are some photos of my favorite memories (sorry for the picture overload — it was impossible to choose!). I hope Scouting creates just as many memories for your families, too.
