Cub Scout Pack 334

Cub Scout Pack 334 arranges for space for family campouts in early June and mid- to late September of each year
(weather permitting.)

This is a terrific time for family (and pack!) bonding and a chance to enjoy God's beautiful creation in the great outdoors!

Our next family campout is scheduled for June 9-10, 2012.

Not sure what to plan for meals?  Here are a couple of cookbooks from our Pack's library:

Big Mama's Campfire Cookbook:  this manual starts out with a lot of tips & tricks to help you prepare for cooking at camp, followed by easy recipes for breakfast, breads, lunch, dinner, & dessert!

Dutch Oven Cooking 101:  Do you own a Dutch oven?  If so, this book is full of tips & recipes for you.

Remember to bring your handbooks!

You will be able to mark off electives and achievements at this campout, and this weekend will get you well on your way to earning the Outdoor Activity Award.
