Journey to Excellence
Our Pack is committed to providing an excellent program at a great value for families. The BSA organization recognizes quality programs based on standards they set with the Journey to Excellence pack award. Each year our pack strives to satisfy the highest standards in order to earn the Gold level in meaning that we are providing an "exceptional' program.
Pack 122 earned Gold in 2023, and is on track to earn Gold again in 2024.
Our Leaders
All of our volunteers believe in the benefits of scouting to the youth of today. We believe that the pack is as good as our volunteers make it. So we promote the training of our leaders. 100% of our leaders have taken their position specific training.
