Pack 89 held a hike at the Sourland Mountain Preserve in Hillsborough. The scouts (and a few siblings) hiked the ridge trail to the top of the mountain. While at the top, some of the dens worked on badge requirements; our Bear Scouts looked for indirect signs of wildlife. After a refreshing snack, we hiked back to the trail head. Overall, the scouts hiked over two miles and had a great time.

Pack 89 held it first pack meeting of the new scout year. Our guests were the HHS Robo Raider team. While the parents and leader discussed scouting, the Robo Raiders put on a demonstration for the scouts of a Robot they had built.

Pack 89 held an early September hike at Colonial Part in Somerset. We have beautiful weather for the hike. The hike started in the park, went through the rose garden, out on to the tow path, then back the way we came. The after, the scouts insisted on spending time at the very cool playground (of course).
