Need something fun to do this summer?  See below for the activities from Pack 530. Remember attendance at any 3 activities earns the National Summertime Activity award; summer camps count toward the award, too!

Run For The Wall

Details at http://www.rftw.org/.  The run in the St. Louis area is on Monday May 20^th.

The purpose of RFTW is “to promote healing among ALL veterans and their families and friends, to call for an accounting of all Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action (POW/MIA), to honor the memory of those Killed in Action (KIA) from all wars, and to support our military personnel all over the world. 

Motorcyclists join predetermined routes and will arrive in Wentzville @5pm to spend the night at VFW Post 5327 (1414 Highway Z) en route to the Capital.         

Scouts and other supporters line the streets as the riders parade through, then join them at the VFW for fellowship afterward (would be good to have more participation for this).

Memorial Day Good Turn

Since 1951 the Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts of the St. Louis area have been placing flags on the 130,000 graves at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery as part of the annual Good Turn. This is our chance to formally honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom we cherish. This year’s celebration is Sunday, May 26th. Gates open at 11 a.m. and we should enter at the entrance of the National Guard base (adjacent to the cemetery). The precession starts at 12:30 and the ceremony starts at 1 p.m. Make sure to bring plenty of water and a snack or sack lunch, and rain gear (just in case).
