With the end of the school year and the start of the summer activities we've decided to have a Spring Pack 710 Round Up to recruit new scouts to the Pack. If you are a parent of a perspective new scout, please click on the “2009 Round Up” link to the left for further information for the Round Up Event set for September 9th at 7:00 P.M. in the Activity Center.

Scout Parents,

We have quite a bit of Pack activities coming over the next few months. There is quite a bit here, please read through.

First and for most is the upcoming Pack Campout on March 12-14. We will be camping at Camp Salmen in the Arapaho Site. March 12th is a Records Day for Kehoe, so hopefully this should give us a jump on getting out to Salmen and getting camp set up that Friday. As customary, we will have our Pack Meeting Saturday Night as the campsite by the campfire. Please plan to attend all or part of this Campout, this looks to be another great campout and experience for your scout and family. For our planning purposes, If your family is planning on attending the campout, please go to the Pack Website to register your family.

Scout Parents,

I’m sure everyone is still on their “Who Dat” high with the Saints winning their first Superbowl. What a game and what a parade last night!

I wanted give an update to the Pack on the Pinewood Derby and Fundraiser for Haiti, which was a very big success. To start off with the results of the "Race for Relief" Fundraiser for Haiti Earthquake, we had a very success night. We raised $493 dollars in donations, added to $400 match from the Pack, and $255 from the 51 car entries gave us a total of $1148 raised to be donated the Red Cross for Haiti Earthquake Relief. I'd like to thank all the Scout families for their support, especially the scouts and siblings who dug deep into their own pockets to help out the cause.

Let Troop 710 serve you lunch during the Pinewood Derby!

We will be selling Dominos pizza, drinks, and desserts at the Pinewood Derby on Saturday!

With the Pinewood Derby fast approaching, I wanted to address a few questions that a few people have had.

• We are going to try harder to make sure everyone know the proper rules and enforce them. The official rules are posted on the website at http://www.pack710.org/node/1200.
