We have heard from some new families about a contact named "Sam" reaching out on behalf of Scouting America / CT Rivers Council to answer questions and follow up on the joining process. At a recent Council meeting, Mr. Eikel and I learned that SAM is an autonomous, AI agent that is automatically deployed to follow up on registrations. This feature was deployed without input or notice to pack leaders, so we are catching up on the guidance; but we feel strongly that parents should be aware of who they are communicating with when it comes to their children's identity and participation. Following a recent update, SAM is now instructed to clearly identify itself as an AI agent.
Calling all Cub Scouts and parents for a day of outdoor fun at Camp Workcoeman. Cub Scouts with the pack will travel to various stations, where they will participate in activities such as BB Shooting, Archery, Nature activities, sports, and more.
We have over 35 scouts and family members signed up for the Wolf Pack Scout Night on November 22 at 3pm! This will be a great time! The deadline to RSVP for this event is this Friday, November 6, so that we can purchase our block of tickets. The cost will be $20/seat, paid through cash or Venmo to the pack treasury.
We are looking forward to our Fall Family Campout at Winding Trails October 10-11. Please RSVP in the calendar event so that we can give them an accurate head count.
Note that the date for Webelos Woods campout has been changed to the weekend of October 23-25 due to the weather last weekend. We hope you can make it! Communicate with your Webelo/AOL den leaders for details.
