Pinewood Derby Driver’s License Photos
The photos taken at Blackhawk Museum is now available on the Pack Photo Site. These photos will be inserted into a Pinewood Derby Driver's License template I made. I'll get these printed, laminated and to the pack on Derby Day.
Please check that the name spellings and den assignments are correct. There are 4 photos that I do not have the scout's name or den. Any help in identifying these boys would be appreciated.
Any scouts that missed their photo on the 10th can take their picture at weigh-ins on the 30th. It will be during the first 30 minutes of the scheduled weigh-in time.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

New Brighton State Beach Camping Wrapup
Pack 1776 families-
We had a FANTASTIC time camping last weekend at New Brighton State Beach. Action packed fun: The Scouts earned multiple beltloops- Citizenship, Astronomy, Music, Language & Culture. They performed awesome campfire skits & songs. They did a woodworking project, rock painting, foil cooking, and did a morning hike on the beach. The last morning they all participated in a moving flag retirement ceremony.
Special thanks to all the families that made this possible. This event was a success because of commitment from all the scouting families that participated- THANK YOU! All the families shared & we all benefit from each others contributions. I’d like especially recognize our camping chair Gapps. This was the largest number of people that have ever camped in our Pack’s history & everything was planned & organized perfectly!
If any of you want to view photos of the camping event they can be viewed on our new Pack 1776 photo site.
You can view a cool slideshow (upper right tab button), buy pictures or download the full resolution pictures directly to your computers (for free!) . For privacy protection issues all the pictures are password protected.
Hope you enjoy.
Yours in Scouting,

After the Hawk release, about 1:30, we'll take a very short drive to the Fort Cronkhite.
We are going to meet at the parking lot at the end of Mitchell road. We will do about 1.5 mile hike around the Rodeo Lagoon. The hiking trail is rocky dirt, so it is NOT stroller accessible.
On your own after the hike, you may visit Golden Gate Raptor Observatory Open House event at Fort Cronkhite until 4:00pm. There will be Scientific Displays, Radio-telemetry Demonstrations, Kid Crafts and Activities, GGRO 25th Anniversary Product Sales.


From 101 south - Cross the Golden Gate Bridge and take the second exit Alexander Avenue. Get in the left lane following signs that read "101 San Francisco". Turn left at the stop sign and cross under the freeway. Turn right onto Conzelman Road and drive 1.8 miles to Hawk Hill. Park alongside the road before it becomes one way and then walk up the west side of Hawk Hill past the locked gate. It's just a few hundred feet to the summit.
From 101 north - After going through the Waldo Tunnel, take the last Sausalito exit to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area (the signs read Golden Gate National Recreation Area/Sausalito). Stay to the left. Turn left at the stop sign then right up the hill onto Conzelman Road. Stay on Conzelman Road for 1.8 miles. You will see a sign for Hawk Hill.
