25 Years of
Scouting This month at Weddington, we are celebrating the 25th anniversary of Scouting. Both Cub Scouts Pack 99 and Boy Scouts Troop 99 were started in April of 1991 and have been a wonderful ministry of our church ever since. Over this time, Pack 99 and Troop 99 have completed many service projects, fundraisers and community service hours. During the past year alone, the combined Scouts have completed over 700 community service hours from projects such as Scouting for Food, which collected over 2,450 pounds of food for charity this past year alone. Currently the Boy Scouts consist of 42 scouts and 24 leaders. The Cub Scouts consist of 85 scouts and 18 leaders. Both groups take part in monthly outdoor activities such as camping, kayaking, rock climbing, and rappelling. The groups also partake in service activities, fundraisers, trips and religious studies throughout the year.
The Cub Scouts of Pack 99
Over the past 25 years, 73 members of Troop 99 have earned their rank of Eagle Scout, the highest award earned by youth in Scouting. Additionally, this year the Cub Scouts of Pack 99 is the 4th largest Pack in the seven county Scout Council. We are so honored to have Scouting be a part of our church for the past 25 years. Join us on Sunday, February 14 for Scout Sunday, as we celebrate 25 years of this wonderful ministry.
