our Pack this year is 126. We ask churches,salvation army, food pantries and community outreach for ideas on families. c
CubmasterJoe says

They submitt the names and then we set them up with a Pack or Troop near the family.

The leader who does this for our district says it's like another full time job this time of year
CubmasterJoe says

but it's more rewarding
Rebekah says

We do something similar - unrelated to scouts - we go through the elementary school counselors though for the families. Easier I think.
Rebekah says

Easier to find families I mean, but hard to find sponsors. It is like a full-time job, but SO rewarding. I look forward to it all year.
Rebekah asks

you adopted 75 families with only 126 pack members?
CubmasterJoe says
17 years ago
No the Pack did 2 families. The District did 75+
Rebekah says

oh ok. That sounds more reasonable!
CubmasterJoe says

and with 126 this year I hope we can adopt three families
