Support a Cub Scout, get a treat for yourself!

The lessons learned in Cub Scouts may be priceless, but the cost of delivering a year of fun-filled and character-building activities is downright expensive. That’s why Pack 564 is asking you to support our efforts by contributing to our annual fundraiser.

You can contribute in one of two ways:

Purchase delicious popcorn from one of our scouts. Many will be going door-to-door the next few months requesting your support. If you don’t have a scout in your neighborhood, feel free to contact us and we’ll put you in touch with someone.
Donate money at our popcorn-for-troops fundraisers at area Krogers and other locations. Check our Facebook page for this weekend’s locations!

Your support will help provide a year’s worth of fun and character-building experiences for more than 100 Lilburn-area boys.

Thanks!

Welcome, new families, to Pack 564!

On behalf of everyone at Pack 564, we’d like to warmly welcome you to Cub Scouts! We know you and your son will have lots of adventures together as your son develops new skills, builds character and has fun while doing it.

We’ve put together a list of things you need to know right now. If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to contact us!

All boys and parents new to scouting should make plans to attend a parent orientation session and Bobcat training class Tuesday, Aug. 23, at Mountain Park United Methodist Church. At this meeting, you’ll learn more about the pack and your role in it while your son works towards his Bobcat badge – the first step on his scouting journey. Please register for the Parent Orientation and Bobcat class below so we prepare materials for the meeting.
You’ll want to get over to the Scout Shop as soon as it’s convenient and pick up your son’s uniform and handbook. You’ll want him to be in uniform Tuesday for the orientation session, and he should have his handbook with him.
If your son is joining as a Lion or a Tiger, the date of your first den meeting may have been given to you Thursday night at Roundup or Tuesday night at Orientation. If it wasn’t, or you need it again, please check our calendar. If your son is joining in second through fifth grades, you should contact your den leader for details.
Before we even get together for our first pack meeting, we’ll begin working on our annual fall fundraiser, selling Trail’s End popcorn. We’ll cover the details of this fundraiser at our Parent Orientation session and Bobcat training class on Tuesday, Aug. 23. You’ll learn how your scout can pay their pack dues and even earn additional credit that they can apply to future scouting events.
To keep up with all that’s happening in the pack, join our private Facebook group and bookmark or subscribe to the pack calendar. After you request membership in the closed Facebook group, please send an email to news@bsapack564.org with the names you requested membership for, the name of the scout and, if you have it, his den number. The Facebook group is for parents and guardians only. Please refer friends and other family members to the website or our public Facebook page, which we also encourage you to “like” so that you can share posts from the pack regarding service projects and other activities.
The first pack meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 13.
The Resources for Scouts and Parents page has lots of good information you may want to review.
The Parent Handbook is also available online, in case you haven’t received a copy.

Interested in joining Cub Scouts at Camp Creek Elementary in Lilburn?

Is your son the outdoorsy type? Or maybe the build-something type? How about the science-is-so-cool type? Or the hang-out-with-friends-doing-fun-stuff-type? Then you’ll want to check out Cub Scouts with Pack 564 in Lilburn, the primary pack for students attending Camp Creek Elementary School!

Cub Scouting has something for every kind of boy, from the opportunity to build and race a Pinewood Derby car to fire station outings, camping, hikes and tons of other cool activities. He’ll make friends and learn what it means to be a good citizen and member of his community in the process.

Representatives from the Boy Scouts of America Northeast Georgia Council will be in classrooms Tuesday, Aug. 16 to answer questions, and Pack 564’s sign-up night for new scouts is 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 18 at Camp Creek Elementary.
