Webelos Woods 2021
Webelos Woods is generally a spring campout organized by the Foothills District that gives the Webelos an opportunity to operate like a Scout Patrol and plan their own campout.
This year they made sandwiches for lunch, grilled burgers for dinner and had bacon for breakfast. The District made this a laid back event where our Scouts got to do their own thing which included an activity put together by Jenson which allowed the Webelos to earn one of their activity pins that they needed for their Webelos rank.

Pandemic Pinewood Derby
The Pinewood Derby this year was a resounding success! We had a huge turnout with most of our Scouts as well as some sibling entries. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. We planned for an outdoor event for the safety of everyone and got lucky with probably the warmest, driest day in February this year.

Providence Canyon 2020
Our Webelos Den put together a great trip and the first one since the COVID pandemic began. We visited Providence Canyon State Park just south of Columbus and had a great time hiking and camping at the park.
We got lucky with the weather, we didn’t have any rain and it was a pretty warm night for December. Everyone had a great time hiking up the streambed and into the canyons.

Backyard Scavenger Hunt
As we discussed in our last virtual Pack meeting, here’s a backyard scavenger hunt that everyone can have fun with. We’ll ask everyone at the next meeting how they did. Print this out and see how many things you can find!
A Scout is Trustworthy! This means we’re using the honor system! As items are spotted, they can be crossed off. All items must be found outside, hence the backyard part 🙂 If you find something really unique, take a picture, show everyone at the next meeting!

Sign-Up Events
This year is unlike any other but Pack 1714 is still here and looking forward to meeting new Scouts this year! Since we can’t have a traditional sign up night at the school, we will have two virtual sign up nights where you can ask questions, learn about Scouting and join our Pack. Please share the information with anyone looking for adventure, great life skills, and outdoor fun.

Pinewood Derby 2020
We had a fantastic Pinewood Derby this year with tons of fast and creative cars. The Bears did a great job organizing the event and creating the carnival games for everyone to play in-between races.
A special thanks to Michael and Cindy Bozza and their family for organizing and putting on this year’s event!!!
Here are the complete results from the races:

Below are all of our exceptioaln Scouts who sold over $500 and got to throw pies.

Yorktown Adventure
Pack 1714 went on an exciting trip to Patriot’s Point to spend the night on the historic Yorktown aircraft carrier. Our Scouts got to experience a little of what it is like to live on a carrier by spending the night in bunks similar to the ones it’s original sailors would have slept on.
It was hard to tell who enjoyed exploring these old ships more, the Scouts or the parents! The museum is fairly expansive, with a significant amount of the carrier open to exploration. Nearby, the destroyer USS Laffey and the submarine USS Clamagore were also very interesting to visit.
In addition to having a fun time touring these ships, our Scouts also learned a lot about the sacrifices made by the many brave soldiers that fought on these ships and others for our great country.
