Welcome to the Pack 412 Web Site

Pack 412 is based out of Omaha Nebraska and Chartered by Zion Lutheran Church.  Pack 412 is a member of the Boy Scouts of America Mid-America Council.  Pack Meetings are every 3rd Monday of the month at Zion Lutheran Church in Northwest Omaha (144th and Ida)

Recent Pack Activities

The Cub Scouts of Pack 412 recently participated in these fun activities.

June 2008 Pack Campout
Pack 412 enjoyed a wonderful early summer campout in June 2008 at Indian Cave State Park.  All Cub Scouts and their families were invited to a weekend of fun in the park.  The Pack visited the reconstructed mid-19th century river settlement of St. Deroin.  In the village the Cub Scouts saw how early settlers made old-time crafts such as lye soap, broom sticks, and candlesticks.  There was a working blacksmith shop with a roaring forge.

Cubmaster Wurtele treated the Pack to two delicious Dutch oven treats on Saturday night.  On Sunday morning the Pack enjoyed a hearty breakfast of home made Dutch oven donuts, monkey bread and Hungry Man breakfast casserole.  Webelos Den Leader Deardoff showed the scouts how to make omelets in a bag. 

There are photos of the June 2008 camp out at Indian Cave State Park in the photo gallery here

Blue and Gold 2008Splatter Paint Farms visits Pack 412 for a horse and gear demonstration
The Blue and Gold Banquet is a birthday dinner for the Cub Scouting program, held during February, the anniversary month of the Boy Scouts of America, which was organized in February 1910.

It's also a time to celebrate the advancements and accomplishments of the Cub Scouts and to share a few laughs and stories with parents and Cub Scouts.

Our theme this year was "Cowboys" and we had a special demonstration of horses and gear from Mindy Smith of Splatter Paint Farms.

I saw a lot of parents take photos this year so we may have a few more pictures added to the gallery later.

There are photos of this year's Blue and Gold available for downloading in the photo gallery here.  Pictures of last year's February 2007 Blue and Gold can be found here and here.

Raingutter Regatta 2007
Cub Scouts from Pack 412 with Raingutter Regatta Sail boats
The Pack held the annual Raingutter Regatta at the October Pack Meeting.  Each boy builds his own boat with supervision and help from parents or other family members.   This year the wind for the sails were supplied by small hand held fans instead of the Cub Scout's breath.  Two sets of photos are available in the photo gallery here and hereLast years photos are still in the photo gallery.
Blue and GoldJD entertains Cub Scouts at Blue and Gold 2007
The Blue and Gold Banquet for Feb 2007 had several exciting guests. JD a great radio personality from KGBI 100.7 FM entertained the Cub Scouts with some great games. 

We also had a visit from a local RC club called the Omahawks. The Omahawks normally fly their remote control airplanes across the Standing Bear Lake, but tonight a few fellows were kind enough to bring some of their aircraft to snow the Cub Scouts. They even flew several of their mini helicopters around the inside of the Church! Pictures of the Feb 2007 Blue and Gold can be found here and here.
