Our Scouts volunteered to help our community this holiday season. In particular:

On Veterans Day (Nov. 11, 2024), members of the AOL and Webelos Dens from Pack 620 and Pack 114 conducted the Flag Ceremony for the Veterans Day Breakfast held at Northridge Elementary. Scouts from other Dens in Pack 620 and Pack 114 also participated in the ceremony. Thanks to all our Scouts that participated. Thank you to all of our Veterans and their families for their service to our country.

On October 19, 2024, members of Pack 620 took a walk through the streets of Littleton to hear haunted tales about old town Littleton. The tour is a fundraiser for Troop 444, one of the troops our Scouts may join after they finish Cub Scouts. Our Scouts and their families had a great time hearing the spooky tales from our tour guide, a former Cub Scout from our Pack and his Dad who are now members of Troop 444. Thanks for a great tour Troop 444!

On October 6, 2024, members of Pack 620 helped the St. Luke’s Feeding the 5000 Food Drive sort canned goods and other food donations into cartons for shipping to food pantries. The Scouts and their family members sorted food for two hours and filled up one moving trunk and the half of another truck with boxes of food. Everyone had a great time. Our Pack also contributed to the food drive with donations. Thanks to everyone who participated!

Scouts from Pack 620 had a great time marching in the Highlands Ranch 4th of July Parade on July 4, 2024. Our Scouts marched with Packs from around the area and handed out candy and American flags to kids along the parade route. 

In March 2024, Pack 620 held its Spring fundraiser to help support our Scouting activities. We choose Butter Braids because the Pack receives $6 from the sale of every $15 in pastry sold (that’s 40 percent back to our Pack!). Our goal this year was to raise between $1,800 – $2,000 if 30 scouts each sold 12 butter braids.

This year, our Pack sold 173 items and raised a profit of $1,090! Thirteen Scouts participated in the fundraising this year. Next year, we’re hoping we can have a slightly longer selling period and also do it before Spring Break so that we can make more money for Pack activities.

Thank you to everyone for supporting our Pack 620 Butter Braid Fundraising campaign!

On April 27, 2024, Pack 620’s Lion and Tiger Dens visited the Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg to bring items that the Scouts and their families had collected as part of a service project. Over the past two months, the Scouts had been collecting items that the animals needed. This included gently used blankets and towels from their families, friends, neighbors, and local hotels. In addition, the Scouts collected donations of items that bears, tigers and lions like to eat such as fresh fruit and vegetables, fruit roll-ups, jumbo marshmallows, dog food, cat food, reddi-whip canned whipped cream and canned evaporated milk. (The Scouts loved that the animals liked marshmallows and whipped cream!) The Scouts also learned about the Sanctuary and their care of animals. Unfortunately, it rained really heavy that day so we didn’t get to see many animals but we’re headed back one day when the weather is nice!

On April 14, 2024, Pack 620 Scouts had a blast launching their rockets off and then chasing them across the field! Luckily, we managed to recover the majority of the rockets except for a couple that managed to land in trees and other inaccessible areas. A big thanks to Cubmaster Steve Dean for organizing this year’s launch and managing the launch pads.

On March 12, 2024, Pack 620 held our Arrow of Light ceremony and Crossover. Ten Scouts received the Arrow of Light, the highest rank in Cub Scouts. The Scouts that Crossed Over included: Anderson, Dustin, Phoebe, Jack, Eli, Travis, Logan, Finn, Lochlann, and Nicholas. The ceremony was organized by the AOL’s Den Leader Jared Hostmeyer and featured Mr. Cleatus Cayou, a member of the Omaha Tribe of Macy, Nebraska. Mr. Cayou told stories to the Scouts (including his grandson) that helped them to reflect on the transition they were making and the choices they would face in the future.

The racing was fast and furious at the Pinewood Derby on February 10, 2024 as the Pack’s best racers competed for the fastest time on the track and for other derby prizes. Here are the results of this year’s Derby:

The Scouts built some incredible derby cars, incorporating sleek design with color, creativity, and their favorite characters.

Awards were given to Scouts in the following categories:
