Back to School and Back to Scouts!!

It is that time of year again and we're starting off with a bang! Our September outing will be on the Virginia Creeper Trail. The fall is a wonderful time to get out on a bicycle and ride the trail with our Scouting friends. We will be accompanying the boys and leaders of Troop 326. The date for this exciting adventure is Saturday, September 24th.

Thanks to everyone who came out for our exciting September school year Scout kick-off!! What a great time we all had around the bonfire! It was great to see familiar faces and to meet new friends!

SUMMERTIME FUN!!

What a great summer!! We had several exciting outings and opportunities this past summer for our Cub Scouts to get together and have some fun. From Cub Scout Day Camp to an Asheville Tourists baseball game, Cub Scout adventure was easy to find. Thanks to all who were able to fit our summertime events into their schedules.

Castaway Odyssey

Spring Cub-Parent Weekend

Virginia Creeper Bicycle Trail

We will be heading out from Pinnacle Church at 6:30am Saturday morning for Damascus, VA. From there we will take a shuttle up to Whitetop, VA where we will start our adventure back down to Damascus. Bring a WATER BOTTLE, a bag lunch, and any snacks that you may wish to have. You can rent bikes in Damascus or you may bring your own. (If bringing your own bike, I strongly recommend that it has gears so that you may coast downhill without having to keep peddling.) The cost of bike rental and shuttle to Whitetop is $24. If you bring your own bike, the shuttle is $13.
