Cub Scout Pack 347 will be holding their annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser on Saturday, April 2 from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm. It will be held at the CFC Center located at 108 N 4th Street, Smithville. There will be applications available for any child and parent who would like to enroll their child in the program at the spaghetti dinner. This fundraiser is for the BSA Scouts of DeKalb County and is the primary way the scouts pay for their camping adventures for the summer. Tickets are available for $8.00/person. Children 4 and under are free.
Cub Scout Pack 347 is open to all kids in the DeKalb County area and as part of the Boy Scouts of America our mission “is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law”.
The Cub Scouting program works with kids ages 4-11 in early training leading into the Boy Scouts ages 11 -18 teaching them good character development and working together learning life and leadership skills.
The Scout Motto: “Do Your Best!”
The Scout Oath: “On my honor, I will do my best to God & my country and to obey the Scout Law: To help other people at all times; to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake & morally straight.”
The Scout Law: A Scout is: trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.
