COMMITTEE REPLACEMENTS

The list of volunteers who run the Pack, are a group of people who do an excellent job of keeping the smiles on the boys of Pack 154. Through the loss of some key people, because of the crossing over ceremony, there are some positions available now and will be more in the very near future. If you are an energetic person who can live on 100 smiles a month, please step forward and volunteer your time for a worthwile cause. Contact Chris States at 228-7576 for details.
