Digging Out

Well, due to some communications issues with my phone last week, I was out of touch with just about everyone for about four days. That made for a wonderful pile of NIRTS* projects this morning. Love that.

Monday is almost over... yeah for all of us. Tonight is our annual Sausage Sizzler for the Cub Scout Pack. We all get together, grill something, and take the boys on an easy trail ride through a local park. Weather looks good, and I'm looking forward to it.

Scouting Kickoff

I cannot believe that the school year starts in a week. That means that scouting is ramping up, with Recruiting, Cub Scout Roundup, etc. As the newly elected Cubmaster of Pack 112 here in Tallahassee, I'm starting to feel some pressure.

Tonight I worked on the Recruiting flyer we will hand out in schools on Friday, as well as some administrative details for the forty or so boys we already have. It's looking to be a great year, and I can't wait to get started.

If you are interested in getting your son involved in Cub Scouting in Tallahassee, I'll tell you that Pack 112 is probably one of the best around. We've got a great group of boys and parents, and we do a lot of fun stuff during the year. Check us out at http://tallyscouts.com/112.

In addition to my Pack duties, I will be attending Woodbadge this spring. I'm pretty excited about that, even though it means committing to to three day weekends at Wallwood Scout Reservation. I know that I will get a lot out of the experience, both personally and in Scouting.
