Pack 868 Leaders

CUB SCOUT PACK 868 SHEPHERDSVILLE, KY Meets 7:00 PM Thursdays Shepherdsville Community Center
*Pack 868 Leaders*

	Pack 868 may be a young unit, but it is not without experienced leadership. To insure that scouts who join the unit will have a wonderful experience starting with the very first meeting, a number of parents from Troop 868 will shepherd the pack during its startup period. These experienced former Cub Scout leaders will train the parents of current Pack 868 Cub Scouts to assume the various leadership roles and "hold their hands" as they "learn the ropes" and get comfortable in their respective positions. And these folks will continue to be available as resources for continuing consultation and guidance to insure the long-term success of Pack 868.
		Cubmaster Bob Meek is an Eagle Scout and also Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 868. Mr. Meek has over 30 years experience in the Scouting program, including prior experience as a Cubmaster, Webelos Den Leader, Cub Scout Day Camp Director, and unit Committee Chairman. He brings great enthusiasm and a zeal for delivering a Scouting program of the absolute highest quality. He is a firm believer in training for adult leaders and following the rules so that Scouts have experiences that are both fun and SAFE.
		Tiger Den Leader Cheryl Guffey is new to Cub Scouting, but a natural for the job. When her son decided he wanted to be a Cub Scout, she figured she may as well be a leader since she's going to be at the weekly meetings, anyway! And we're glad she felt that way. An EMT by profession, she possesses self-confidence and the ability to maintain her cool in any situation. She's done a great job thus far and we look forward to several more years of service from her.
		Assistant Tiger Den Leader Julia Brown has a high school aged son in Boy Scout Troop 868 who is well on his way to becoming an Eagle Scout. Mrs. Brown has 7 years experience in both Cub and Boy Scouting. During her son's Cub Scout career, she served as both a Den Leader and Webelos Leader. As a Boy Scout parent, she remains actively involved with the Troop Committee, helps with troop fundraising, and counsels a merit badge at the troop's annual Merit Badge University program.
		Wolf Den Leader Linda Zimmerman possesses a wealth of Scouting experience. Currently getting back into the program with her grandson, she was a Den Mother for her own son a generation ago. She is also actively involved in Girl Scouting with her granddaughter and frequently carries good ideas back and forth between that program and ours. She has become our primary resource when it comes to unusual games to play at weekly den meetings and she never ceases to amaze us with things like "turkey bowling." Linda is a true asset to Pack 868.
		Bear Den Leader Clinton Vissers is the proud father of one of Troop 868's Eagle Scouts and has roughly 10 years experience as a leader in both Cub Scouting and Boy Scouting, including experience as a Den Leader, Webelos Den Leader, Assistant Scoutmaster, and Committee Chairman. Among his other talents, Mr. Vissers excels at the art of pack and troop fund-raising.
		Webelos Den Leader Christina Vissers is married to Clinton and is the equally proud mother of a Troop 868 Eagle Scout. She took an active role in her son's Cub Scouting career just a few short years ago and has continued her involvement as a merit badge counselor and active member of the Troop Committee during his Boy Scouting years. She is a school teacher by profession and is obviously talented in the area of working with children and youth.
