No, but I like this.  I have been trying to get our Pack Meetings to be something to look forward to, but I'm not a showman.  We normally do the flags, pledge, oath, and law, then greeting.  After that, the CC makes any announcements.  We might have a den skit, then advancement.  Then, it's kind of dead air for a minute and we retire the colors.  Would be nice if I could get the parents to get involved.  We tried to go with a monthly theme, but it's not working out.

We assigned each rank a pack meeting and pack admin/leaders did the rest.
