Parent Volunteers
Pack 828 is a completely volunteer-led organization. Every pack needs to have dedicated Adult volunteers to plan and run a great pack program. Volunteers make sure that our cub scouts are able to enjoy and learn in the program. We cannot run this pack without your help.
In order to ensure we have enough volunteers we ask that each family of a scout volunteer to help run the Pack.We have many positions available, please be prepared to volunteer for a board position or a single event coordinator at the first pack meeting. If you have not volunteered for a position by 9/21, you will be assigned to help with an event. We encourage all of you to attend a Pack 828 parent led committee meeting. Email srpack828@gmail.com for details. All are welcome. Thank you for your support!
