 | Cub Scout Pack 972 serves Lake Saint Louis and the surounding comunities in St Charles County, MO. Pack 972 is chartered to the Chapel of the Lake, and primarily serves the young men attending Green Tree Elementary School as well as home-school students in Lake Saint Louis, O'Fallon, and Wentzville. Pack meetings are generally held on the last Monday of the month at Chapel of the Lake. Please check the calendar at this site for the actual dates/times for pack meetings. | Currently, most of our members are students at Green Tree Elementary in the Wentzville School District. Since Green Tree's completion, Pack 972 has become the primary Cub Scout Pack serving this school. We also occasionally use the school for den, pack, and recruiting functions. We also work in conjunction with Boy Scout Troop 972, also chartered to Chapel of the Lake, to provide our boys access to the complete Scouting experience. As an example, during the annual scouting good turn Scouting for Food charity food drive, the pack and the troop jointly distributed and collected the food bags for the entire Lake Saint Louis area. |
