Pack Cookout (9/25):
Location Change! Due to inclement weather, tonight's pack cookout has been moved from Parker's Lake North Shelter to the Wayzata Community Church. We will meet in Mithun Hall tonight at 5:45 as scheduled. If you normally enter WCC near the gym, proceed down the stairs across from the door and continue heading in the direction of the stairs to reach Mithun Hall (do not continue the stairs to the basement).
On September 25th, Pack 283 will host our school year kickoff cookout at Wayzata Community Church, Mithun Hall starting at 5:45PM. Friends are welcome. See the pack calendar for more details.

Scouting does build character - we can prove it!
We've always thought that Scouting is good for our boys' character development and now there's a study to prove it! A recently published study by Dr. Richard M. Lerner and Tufts University, funded by the John Templeton Foundation followed 1800 Scouts and 400 non-Scouts over more than 2 years and studied their character development.
