More About Pack 1070
Pack 1070 was organized in the late 1960's. For more than 35 years now, we have been in
active service to the community. Some of the community events we are involved with include
Scouting for Food, Christmas Caroling, The BIG Sweep and maintaining the butterfly garden in
Fountain Rock Park.
In addition to participating in these great community service projects, the Scouts also
do
They have a great time building catapults for the very popular pumpkin toss
Creating Pinewood Derby cars
Attending Day Camp and Goshen Scout Camp
Working as a team during the annual Klondike Derby
Or just explore our web site. We have lots of GREAT info on our pack as well as the wonderful world of scouting.
Pack 1070 is proud to be sponsored by Walkersville United Methodist Church,
a partnership that has lasted for over 35 years!
Cub Scout Vision Statement
The Boy Scouts of America, including the Cub Scouts, is the nation's foremost youth program of character development and values-based leadership training. In the future Scouting will continue to:
Offer young people responsible fun and adventure
Instill in young people lifetime values and develop in them ethical character as expressed in the Scout Oath and Law
Train young people in citizenship, service, and leadership
Serve America's communities and families with its quality, values-based program
Scouting's Bottom Line
What happens to a Scout? For every 100 boys who join Scouting,
records indicate that:
RARELY will one be brought before the juvenile court system
2 will become Eagle Scouts
17 will become future Scout volunteers
12 will have their first contact with a church
1 will enter the clergy
5 will earn their church award
18 will develop a hobby that will last through their adult life
8 will enter a vocation that was learned through the merit badge system
1 will use his Scouting skills to save his own life
1 will use his Scouting skills to save the life of another person
Scouting's alumni record is equally impressive. A recent nation-
wide survey of high schools revealed the following information:
85% of student council presidents were Scouts
89% of senior class presidents were Scouts
80% of junior class presidents were Scouts
75% of school publication editors were Scouts
71% of football captains were Scouts
Scouts also account for:
64% of Air Force Academy graduates
68% of West Point graduates
70% of Annapolis graduates
72% of Rhodes Scholars
85% of F.B.I. agents
26 of the first 29 astronauts
Note: Since this was written the percentage of Eagle Scouts has climbed to nearly 4%. The Eagle Scout Service in 1997 announced that the figure was 3.89%.
