Every Scout Deserves a Trained Leader!

If you were in trouble you wouldn't want a rescue from a firefighter or a policeman with no training would you?  Of course not!  Believe it or not it's the same with Scouts, every youth in our Packs and Troops not only hold to this same principal, but they DESERVE to have a leader who is trained.  Since every Scout deserves a trained leader, Cataloochee District is holding a training day for Boy Scout leader specific and Cub Scout leader specific @ Long's Chapel United Methodist Church, Waynesville, NC.  We will have Pack and Troop committee training and Youth Protection available as well after the Cub training for NO COST!!

Come join us for an opportunity to not only be trained, but also for fun fellowship and learning on Oct 1.  More details in the link below

Need Something Fun to do This Fall?

Does your Pack or Troop need something fun to do this Fall?  Well look no farther!  With our district's rich environment and love for hunting, fishing, and wildlife conservation this may be the perfect opportunity for your unit!
The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission is hosting a family-friendly event at the Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education, near Brevard, on Sept. 24 to celebrate National Hunting and Fishing Day.
The event, which is free, will focus on activities that highlight the state’s rich hunting, fishing and wildlife conservation heritage. Activities and exhibits all provide opportunities for participants to improve their outdoor skills and increase their knowledge of wildlife in North Carolina.
