I asked for it! I really did. And now I don't think I'm going to get the help I need to do it.
A couple of weeks ago I got a call from the BSA council people saying that I was invited to the kick-off dinner. I am a committee member for the Troop but why were they inviting me? Then I had the thought that they still had my name down for the Pack. So I e-mailed the (then) committee chair, Jim and the COR Paul and expressed that I could if they wanted me to, run the sign-up night and the parent orientation for the Cub Scouts. So I go to the trainng and the Dinner (Carrabba's, yum) and now I am trying to get ahold of the scouts and parents from this past year to help me out. I have not heard from any of them yet. Furthermore, when I requested a roster from Council they can't send me one for the cubs because I'm not listed on the roster as a member of the Pack, just the Troop. I requested it from Jim and Mel the DE but have not gotten it yet. When I asked the Wolf leader from this past year if they were still doing scouts he said "I think so" anyhoo...I will just do as much as I can and hope for the best. I have already asked Deeann to help me out even though she is not part of the Pack either.Oh and Jim also asked if I was interested in being the Cubmaster.
On a side note, at the dinner Jim and Paul told me that the Scoutmaster, Stan had been given "a letter" and won't be with us this coming year. Jim will be taking over as Scoutmaster and Deeann will still be the Asst. Scoutmaster. Paul will take over Jim's place as Committee Chair and the rest stays the same. We have three boys that are working on Eagle and three working towards Life. A couple of first and second class scouts and the rest are all tenderfoot. (tenderfeet? lol) We have a nice rounded out Troop.
...now if I can just get the Pack to follow suit...
