The scouts and families of Pack 210 poured hours of time and mounds of energy into Walnut Creek's Community Service Day.  The scouts chose the project, "Beautify Walnut Acres," the elementary school that is home to a majority of Pack 210 scouts.  On October 6th, 2012, scouts and their friends and families installed irrigation, cleared weeds, and installed plants, mulch and compost.

On October 14, dozens of venturesome Scouts from Pack 210 navigated orienteering courses around Lake Anza at Tilden Park, in the Berkeley Hills.  This was the 20th annual Scout-O Orienteering challenge hosted by the Bay Area Orienteering Club.

Every year the Scouts of Pack 210 blow off some summer steam on the last Sunday before school with an all-out Capture-the-Flag frenzy.  On August 26th the boys (and sisters and friends) chased each other around the park for an hour, but sadly were unable to coax their parents onto the field for a round or two.

This year's Raingutter Regatta was a great success. Held August 5th at Walnut Acres, the kids had a great time with their boats and lets not forget the 10 foot ice cream sundae! 2 gallons of ice cream (1 chocolate and 1 vanilla), 2 cans of whipped cream, 2 cans of chocolate syrup (the good kind too) and 1 large jar of cherries! It was a whopper and it was enjoyed by all! The newspaper hats were a hit too!

Pack 210 scouts proudly placed flags and ribbons on the graves of US armed services veterans on Memorial Day, May 28th, at the Queen of Heaven Cemetery in Lafayette.

What a weekend!  Camping, hiking, fishing, campfire skits and songs.  On May 5th-6th scouts from Pack 210 enjoyed Del Valle Regional Park, near Livermore.

Tiger Den 7 enjoys their very first Go See It at the Clayton ValleyPumpkin Patch, where they ground corn, "milked" a cow, learned aboutsome farming and enjoyed the haystack maze and lima bean pools.

On October 9th scouts from Pack 210 participated in the 2011 Scout-O Orienteering Challenge.  They used their compasses, maps, and their wits to find their way through miles of hiking in Briones Regional Park.

In another Good Turn community service activity, Pack 210 scouts added their energy to the Walnut Creek Community Service Day by planting and cleaning up at Walnut Acres Elementary School on October 1st.

Pack 210's annual Rocket Day was a blast!  On September 11th at Arbolado Park in Walnut Creek, the boys (and some sisters) customized their rockets and shot them into the sky, propelled by jets of compressed air.
