What do Cub Scouts do?  Everything!  Every den meeting the Scouts complete achievements as they work towards their rank badge.  Those requirements include learning about themselves, their family, their community, and their country and how they are part of it.

But they always have fun!  Every year the pack has special events and trips that will create fantastic memories for you and your Scout.  See below for some of our past events.
 
Pinewood Derby - The Classic Cub Scout Event
 
Pack 255 is fortunate to have an outstanding 3 lane track complete with an electronic timing system featuring real time results projected on the big screen!


 
Raingutter Regatta
 
Most Scout's first activity in Pack 255 is the Raingutter Regatta.  Each Scout is given a boat kit that he uses to create his very own boat that he gets to race himself!  Trophies and ribbons are award to the top finishers, and everyone receives a participation patch.


Camp Lassen Resident Camp

Pack 255's premier overnight camping experience is held every year in July.  Scouts are accompanied by their adult at BSA's Camp Lassen in the forest northeast of Chico.  Activities include rockwall, archery, bb guns, swimming, boating, nature exploration and crafts.  The professional staff at Camp Lassen conduct all of these activites while the adults supervise the Scouts.  The facility is a fully equipment campground complete with dining hall.

One of many opportunities we have given the Scouts of Pack 255 to learn about Recycling.  Scouts learned how recycled waste is taken from the our homes and separated


Day (Twilight) Camp
 
Pack 255's Day (Twilight) Camp is held every June.  Over the course of one week Scouts visit nightly from 4:30pm to 8:30pm to participate in a variety of activities including bb guns and archery.  All activities are conducted by training staff and supervised by adult volunteers. 


Sleepover Aboard the USS Hornet Aircraft Carrier
 
One of the many unique experiences Pack 255 arranges for the Scouts and their Adult.  We live aboard the USS Hornet aircraft carrier for one night.  The trip includes dinner on board, tours of many parts of the carrier not regularly open to the public, a night sleeping in the actual crew quarters, breakfast on board, and self guided tours the next morning.  A truly memorable event for everyone involved!



Scout Night with Sacramento Kings

One of our newest partnerships is a Scout night with our local NBA Team the Sacramento Kings.  We got to enjoy the game and then receive VIP treatment as we had the opportunity to go onto the court after the game.
