Flying Discs and Big Smiles at Leigh Farm Park!

What a day! On August 9, 2025, Cub Scouts took over the disc golf course at Leigh Farm Park! Parents joined in too, cheering, tossing, and laughing right alongside the Scouts.

Disc golf is like golf’s cooler cousin—no clubs, just frisbee-like discs! We aimed for metal baskets with hanging chains, weaving between tall trees and grassy fairways. Every throw was a mix of skill, luck, and giggles. Sometimes the discs flew straight… other times, well, let’s just say the squirrels were impressed.
The last 23 photos in our album capture it all—power throws, victory smile, tricky tree shots, concentration face, and parents doing their best. We even had moments of teamwork, high-fives, and “How did that tree get there?"

Not only did we have fun, but Scouts also worked toward rank advancements like “Team Tiger,” “Stronger, Faster, Higher,” and “Summertime Fun.” We practiced some stretching and exercise routines, enjoyed the great outdoors, and proved that disc golf is a perfect Scout adventure.

From first-time throwers to sharpshooters, everyone left with a smile—and maybe a few extra leaves stuck to their shoes. Can’t wait for our next outdoor challenge!

2023 Trip to USS Yorktown - Operation Overnight

Image
Pack 825 was thrilled to return to the historic USS  Yorktown , located in Charleston, SC for the first time since 2019 for Operation Overnight. During our two-night stay, we slept on board the aircraft carrier in traditional Navy berthing compartments and ate meals in the ship's galley. We learned what life was like for Navy sailors and saw some of our military's most notable airplanes and ships up close. The USS Yorktown is a floating museum that includes a flight simulator, a hanger deck, movie theater, and so much more.  It was an amazing opportunity and an awesome adventure!
