As the Oregon Coast bursts back to life, Pack 972 heads to Camp Clark for our Spring Family Campout. Longer days mean more outdoor fun, hiking, and time around the campfire with the whole Pack family.

Our youngest den, the Lion Den, will be taking the lead on planning and organizing this year's Spring Campout — and after nearly a year of Scouting, these cubs and their families are absolutely ready for it! That said, a great campout is a Pack effort, so we hope you'll answer the call when volunteers are needed. Whether it's meal planning, cooking, cleanup, or leading an activity, every hand makes a difference. Let's help our Lions pull off something truly special and give your Scout a memory they'll talk about for years to come. Sign up for a volunteer spot here!
