Each Scout will receive door hangers and will be asked to collect food donations for the North Pocono Food Pantry.
Additionally, on November 16, 2025, we will be collecting food at Bill’s Shoprite. Families will be asked to sign up for 1-hour shifts throughout the day to assist with the collection.
Please sign up here for a timeslot at the link below. Every Scout should dedicate 1 hour to this service project. Please sign up early. Food Drive Service Project

It is not too early to start thinking about the Summer of 2026. We will start taking deposits for summer camp in January of 2026. At the link below is the current information we have about Summer Camp 2026!
Pack 126 Trailer Project – Support Needed!
For the past 20 years, our Pack trailer has helped transport and store our gear. After two decades of service, it was time for some updates.
Thanks to the generosity of community sponsors, the trailer received full mechanical and electrical repairs at no cost to the Pack and is now ready for many more years of adventures!
Our next goal is to re-wrap the trailer with new Pack 126 graphics that showcase our Scouting spirit.
We’ve already raised over 50% of our goal!
We’re now inviting Pack families to help us finish the project.
Sponsorship letter and form: Pack 126 Trailer Sponsorship Letter
Thank you for your continued support of Cub Pack 126 and for helping keep our trailer rolling strong for the next generation of Scouts!
GENERAL REMINDERS:
Medical Forms:
All Scouts must have a Class A/B medical form on file with the pack. Additionally, all Scouts should obtain a Class C form signed at their next physical. The forms can be found at the link below, and it is recommended to download and fill them out digitally. This will save time next year, as you will only need to update and get the signature instead of filling out the entire form again.
Forms are only good for 1 year.
Emails have been sent to parents of scouts with Medical Forms Missing
It is your responsibility to keep your forms up-to-date with the pack.
