The Pack
The pack is run by Cub Scout Leader, Michael Herriot and he is assisted by GSL Gordon braidwood and ACSL Jenifer Tait McGillivray. The Pack meets on a Thursday night at 6:15pm, and runs until 7:30. At Preasent we have the maximum number of 36 boys in the pack, and are having to run a waiting list for boys who want to join the pack off the street, as we have to give prioroty to the advancing Beavers.
What we get up to.
At the 75th,
our main aim is that all our Cubs have fun in all they do, whether that
be playing a game or completing award work. As progressing through the
award system is the key issue that makes Scouting different from other
youth organizations, the Cubs at the 75th spend many of their pack meeting
nights gaining more ticks on their record cards. We try to make the award
work as fun as it can possibly be and Cubs often gain ticks without knowing
they are actually doing award work at the time. To read more about the
award guidelines we adhere to click below.
Most of our nights tend to follow the
same basic pattern unless we are doing something special that night. We
start off with grand howl, flag and inspection. This is followed by a game
and then the nights main activity. This will usually be award work or activity
badge work. We then have another game, read out any notices and present
any badges; finally ending with the flag and grand howl.

Friday
- We left Millar Hall at 6:30 on a coach. We arrived at the camp hall about
an hour later. We then unpacked and played a couple of games. We then had
supper and went to bed.
Saturday
- I had a cooked breakfast, I really enjoyed it. We then done some badge
work with the Scouts. It never seemed to stop raining. Then we played a
game of rounders. Then we had lunch and after went back to our rooms for
some free time. In the afternoon we played some indoor games as it was
still raining. We then did some work with a map. We had tea, which was
chicken. Because it was still raining we had a fake indoor campfire (Built
absolutely superbly by myself I must add- Mark) with the Scouts then went
to bed.
Sunday
- I had a cooked breakfast, I enjoyed it. We then had a quiz. We were ment
to visit the a farm but we couldn't go as it was still raining. We played
more indoor games then got packed up and went home.
Altogether
it was good fun!
