Cub Scout Pack 734 looking for new Cub Scouts
The Plant City area’s local Cub Scout Pack 734 is open to new members!
The pack started in 1965 and generally draws their members from the Northeastern side of Hillsborough County, including Cork, Knight, Bailey, Walden Lake and Springhead Elementary Schools, in addition to kids who are homeschooled or attend other schools throughout Hillsborough and Polk County.
Pack 734 is a part of the Timucua District that includes eastern and southern Hillsborough County with over 70 units and 2,000 members.
The Cub Scout program includes kids from kindergarten through fifth grade, both boys and girls, divided by grade level into dens. The COVID-19 pandemic saw the pack decrease in participation but they’re excited to start building their numbers back up, welcoming new members at any time.
The scouting program typically runs throughout the school year and while Pack 734 does take breaks throughout the summer, they do have outings during summer break to keep kids involved and busy. The pack has weekly den meetings, typically on Monday evenings at Cork Methodist Church, 4815 W. Sam Allen St., and hold monthly Pack meetings on Mondays as well where the kids receive awards and merit badges.
Along with den meetings, Pack 734 has pack campouts, council campouts, participates in service projects and teaches kids outdoor skills from swimming, camping, canoeing, hiking and first aid. New members can visit at any den or pack meeting, taking place from 6:30 to 730p.m. on Mondays, or contact the pack for more information at www.Pack734.info
