Volunteers Needed
It takes many hands to help keep the pack running and we are in need of volunteers.  We have many families that have been heavily involved over the years heading into their son's final year(s) of Scouts.  We are looking for new volunteers in the following areas in order to ensure smooth transitioning over this next scouting year. 

1. Popcorn Committee Chair - this person will oversee the popcorn fundraiser for the pack.  We already have a volunteer to coordinate the storefront sales but are still in need of a main Popcorn Committee Chair. Their duties will include ordering and  storing the popcorn, be the main contact for den leaders and scouts during the sales dates, and to compile all the sales during the fundraiser ensuring sheets and money are turned in and work with our Pack Treasurer to ensure the totals are calculated and recorded.

 

This is quite a task and has been run by Liz and Ray in past years and many of you will have been to their garage to pick up your popcorn during past sales. The popcorn sale is the main fundraising effort by the pack and provides both cubs and the pack with funds that allow us to do the fun things in scouting.

 

2. Advancement Chair (Sharon Jannusch)  - this person will be the main contact for Den Leaders as scouts are completing advancements.  This year our Den Leaders will be able to record advancements through our new online Scoutbook program and the Advancement Chair will the order the badges, belt loop, or other insignia required, and help plan recognition ceremonies for the Pack.  

3. WebPage/Communications Chair (Sharon Jannusch) - this person will maintain relevant updates for the Pack website and upload submitted photos.  Committee chairs & den leaders will send requests to WebPage Chair in order to maintain current events/dates/information for our Pack and work with the Camp Coordinator/Outdoor Activities Chair who will submit signup links and dates for upcoming camping & event opportunities. This position will help to ensure a centralize location for parents to get up-to-date information regarding pack meetings and other pack event details.

 

4. Pack Training Chair  (Sharon Jannusch)- This committee member will help the Pack committee to ensure that all relevant Leader training has been completed and all youth protections are up to date.

​

5. Camp Coordinator  - This committee member will in charge of organizing camping opportunities for our Scouts.  They will register campers through Northern Star Council, collect forms, payments, and work with Den Leaders/Parents to offer at least three outdoor programs a year. 

 

If you are willing to take on one of the positions or would like more information please email the Cubmaster James Dutton at dutto015@umn.edu (phone 715 386 3472) or the committee chairperson Ron Weiskopf  at ronweiskopf@yahoo.com
