* = Combined Den 7 Gold and Den 7 Blue Events

Please note that the above agenda/ meetings are subject to change based upon availability of guests or other unanticipated factors.

Each Den Meeting will open with Pledge of Allegiance/Flag Ceremony & a short prayer
led by the “Denner” (a scout) and his assistants (2 scouts). Denner will be responsible for helping the other scouts “log in” their achievements and electives on the poster chart each Thursday. PARENTS WILL NOT BE DOING THIS. Scouts will be responsible for logging in their own achievements.

There will be a snack or dessert at each den meeting, as prepared by the scout assigned on the Snack Schedule. This will help the boys achieve Achievement 9.

Unless otherwise advised, please wear your Class A uniform (shirt, kerchief, belt) to all den/pack events. It is especially important to wear your uniform when we are at community events, such as the Night Hike and Hayride.
