  3. I am Committee Chairman for a pack of about 50 cubs. It has grown through bringing interesting guest speakers to our Pack Meetings. There is not a lot of traditional facets to them. We are planning our Blue and Gold to be held in February and one parent (Assistant Cubmaster) has voiced concern over it. He feels parents are much too busy to provide a dish if we have a pot luck meal. Our meetings are on the second Tuesday of the month. He also feels the Blue and Gold should be some other time. I'm torn to understand the "busy parents" moniker. Is it possible that we don't do enough of the traditional things during a pack meeting? Should we have a crash course in doing silly things and have funny stories? I wonder if we need an overhaul of meetings. Thank you for your comments in advance. SR70 in the swamp
