PARSIPPANY — Boy and girl Cub Scouts from Pack 14 enjoyed their first camporee this past weekend.
Pack 14 is a new pack serving boys and girls in grades K-5 at Eastlake and Lake Parsippany schools.
They joined Cub Scouts from other packs in Morris county at the Fishawack Cubelos at Mount Allamuchy Scout Reservation in Stanhope.
On Saturday, the Cub Scouts had a full day of activities including archery, bb, row boats, walking a monkey bridge, fishing, flag etiquette, and first aid skills.
Several parents from Pack 14 remarked on how their child overcame some fear of putting a worm on a hook or shooting a bow and arrow and came away with greater confidence.
For information on joining Pack 14, or one of our four other packs in Parsippany, contact Al Thomas,al.thomas@scouting.org, (973) 765-9322 x229.
