2)  Seeking Tiger Scouts (first grade boys)

Hello Everyone!
I wanted to send out a quick email in hopes to find anyone interested in joining Cub Scouts. My husband is the Tiger Den leader of Pack 451 and our close friend is the Cub Master. My son, who is in 1st grade, is so excited to join scouts, however we have not had any other 1st graders join. We need at least 2-3 more 1st grade boys to make a Tiger Den.

Pack 451 is a very fun and active group. We have 1 Pack meeting a month located at Christ the King Church,in South Bend. We also have 1 -2 Tiger Den meetings a month. These activities are to fulfill badge requirements and are always a lot of fun for the boys. We have not decided on a meeting location for the Tiger Den meetings as we want to make the location convenient for all the scouts. This location will be decided once we have more Tigers join.

If anyone is interested, please contact me and I will gladly send you any information you need.
Thank you,
Kelly Young  kayoung24@yahoo.com
