Hey folks

I wanted to send out a quick email informing everyone of some change the Scouts are making in 2015-2016. A quick line to their web site can be found here that discusses the changes

We are as a Pack will be discussing these with the Den Leaders over the next few months. It does not impact any activities between now and when the boys are promoted to the next rank. Once the Boys are promoted to the next rank, they will fall under the new criteria. This is usually done around June 1st.

2 things to note:

     1. The new books have not been printed yet as of today, so if you go to buy the book for the next rank please make sure to get the new ones
     2. It appears they are doing away with pins and belt loops. Just an FYI
