Cub Scouts return to Cook County



After not having enough kids to sustain a club, Cub Scouts disappeared from the county for the last year or so. But judging from the new pack that’s formed, it looks like there will be Cub Scouts in the area for quite some time to come. Here are the newcomers pictured left to right.

On Saturday, January 4, the Voyageurs Area Council (Boy Scouts of America) welcomed back to Grand Marais, Cub Scout Pack 3167. Gary Nesgoda is the new Cubmaster. Tina Hegg Raway is leading the Webelos (4th and 5th graders).

“We are really looking forward to hiking, fire-building, cooking outdoors, snow sports, first aid, camping, STEM projects, archery, canoeing, building and fixing things, playing games, useful crafts, music/performing arts, and much more,” said Tina Hegg Raway.
