Dear Pack 934,

As you all are likely aware, Governor Roy Cooper announced today the closing of all public schools in North Carolina for at least the next two weeks. Following suit, Pack 934 will suspend all Pack related activities during this timeframe as well.

We know that schools are currently developing an online educational curriculum during the extended school closures, but there will likely be downtime when the scouts could work on requirements. We will ask den leaders to reach out to you about requirements that can be completed at home and suggested activities for completion. We also recommend that scouts consider using some of their free time to work on any elective loops or adventures they find of interest.

We are in unprecedented times, and scouts can use this as a time to become community leaders. A scout is helpful, friendly, and kind. In the spirit of the Scout Law, your scout could consider helping people in your neighborhood who are deemed high-risk of severe illness from COVID-19, such as the elderly and immunocompromised. Ways to be helpful include writing cards, calling neighbors, or offering to run errands, such as picking up groceries (with an adult) and leaving at their doorstep.

Pack 934 would like to offer assistance to anyone in our scout family that may be in need. Please reach out directly to Chad Marion (814-490-0031) or Bryan Scott (336-251-9744) for assistance. Any requests for support will be confidential.

Stay safe and healthy,

Pack 934 Leadership

Dear Pack 934,

As you all are aware, the situation with COVID-19 is changing daily. Pack 934 wants to provide you with open communication about our pack’s activities as it related to COVID-19.

Today, I was in communication with the Old Hickory Council office to discuss Scouts BSA’s official stance on scouting activities and COVID-19. Currently, the Scouts BSA management is considering their response as an organization and will soon publish their recommendations. The Old Hickory Council is aware of the restrictions that Forsyth County School System has implemented on after school-related activities. However, until the official Scout BSA recommendation is given, the position of the Old Hickory Council is to continue scouting activities as long as the schools remain open. I will update you after we hear the recommendations and before next week’s pack meeting. I appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.

Thank you,

Chad Marion
Cub Master
