POSTPONED: Spring Hike
May 19 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm

*** EVENT POSTPONED ***
Due to the weather forecast on Saturday, May 18, 2018, the hike has been rescheduled. We will notify families once a new date has been identified. Thank you for your understanding.

Please join Pack 142 on our Spring Hike!

Event Date: Saturday May 19, 2018
Event Time: 9:00AM – 12:00PM
Event Location: Pyramid Mountain Visitors Center, 472 Boonton Ave, Montville, NJ 07045
Dress Requirements: Pack T-Shirt/Layers

This hike has been scheduled for all Bear and Webelo scouts who still require a hike to obtain their rank prior to June 1, 2018.
All members of Pack 142 are welcome to join our Bear and Webelo den on this great hike.

We will be meeting in the parking lot of the Pyramid Mountain Visitors Center at 9:00AM. All scouts should ensure that they review the requirements in their handbook prior to attending to ensure that they come with all required materials
 
Scouts that are working towards their hiking requirement should bring a backpack with the Cub Scout Six Essentials for Hiking.
  1. First Aid Kit – A kit should include a few adhesive bandages, some moleskin (a sticky bandage that you can put over a blister to keep it from getting worse or rubbing), and a bandage or two.
  2. Filled Water Bottle – Make sure it is big enough to carry water for you to drink through your whole hike and back. And make sure it is full when you start out! It is not safe to drink water you find along the trail.
  3. Flashlight – Check your batteries to make sure they have plenty of juice. Your flashlight will be used only in an emergency, so save the batteries for times when you really need them!
  4. Trail Food – Trail mix or a granola bar provide quick energy when you need it.
  5. Sun Protection – Sunscreen should be SPF 30 or greater. A hat is good to have, too!
  6. Whistle – It's only for emergencies, but a whistle will last longer than your voice.
We are looking forward to welcoming some new families and visitors that are interested in finding out more about Pack 142 to our pack meeting!
You are welcome to invite any friends and families with boys that are Cub Scout age (grades K-5). Please be sure to RSVP to let us know you are coming and how many guests to expect.
