Blue
and Gold Banquet
The
Blue & Gold Banquet is one of the year's most important events
as second year Webelos complete the Cub Scout program and receive
their "Arrow of Light" award. Some of the boys will cross
over into a Boy Scout Troop at this point!
We celebrate
this event with a pot-luck banquet in their honor. Dens are responsible
for various food groups. Pack 310 provides cake and drinks. The
banquet is held at our Lady of Grace Catholic Church Hall in La
Coste.
Pinewood
Derby
The
Pinewood Derby is one of the most popular events in Cub Scouting.
Every year, boys and parents team up to carve, decorate, weigh,
adjust, fret over, and finally race a Pinewood Derby car. The
purpose of the Pinewood Derby is to help the Cub Scout build
a team relationship with their parent or helper, experience the
sense of accomplishment and the excitement of competition, learn
good sportsmanship, and to have fun. Pack 310's Pinewood Derby
is held annually.
The Bear Den is responsible for organizing this event.
Cub
Scout Fun Night & Graduation
The
Picnic is held in May at the Regional Park in Castroville. It gives
the scouts a chance to socialize and celebrate their advancement
to the next den level.
Chicken
BBQ
The
Chicken BBQ fundraiser is held in October at Koenig Park in Castroville.
Volunteers cook and serve plates with chicken, beans, coleslaw
and bread. Proceeds from this fundraiser support
the majority of the pack's activities for the year. Prizes are
given to the scouts and dens selling the most tickets.
The Webelos are responsible for organizing this event.
Popcorn
Sales
Trails
End popcorn is sold by Cub Scouts all over the United States as
an annual fundraiser. The funds help finance scout activities and
awards.
In addition
to individual sales, the scouts hold "show and sell" booths.
This is usually done in front of Super S Supermarket and Blockbuster
Video in Castroville.
The product is ordered in advance and available to purchase at that
time.
Summer
Camp
Summer
Camp is held in San Antonio at McGimsey Scout Park.
