We want to support recruitment across all our packs; we are hosting a Rocket Day—and it’s a great opportunity for you to grow your unit! Flyer attached.
This FREE event is designed for new Cub Scouts who joined between January 1 and May 30, 2026, but it’s also the perfect chance to invite prospective families. Cub Scouts can bring a friend who is new to Scouting, and if they join, they’ll get to build and launch their own rocket too!
Event Details:
May 30, 2026
10:30 AM – 12:30 PM
Contra Costa Fairgrounds, Antioch
May 30, 2026
10:30 AM – 12:30 PM
Contra Costa Fairgrounds, Antioch
What to expect:
- Rocket launches (kits provided)
- S’mores and outdoor fun
- Activity stations and Cub-friendly games
- A welcoming environment for new families to learn about Scouting
We strongly encourage you to share this event with all families in your pack and ask them to invite friends, classmates, neighbors, and teammates. This is a great, low-pressure way for new families to experience Scouting firsthand. We are also looking for volunteers to help run the event. If you or any of your families are available to support, please let us know—we’d really appreciate the help!
Registration is preferred, but walk-ins are welcome. Register here: https://www.scoutingevent.com/
Thanks so much for your support, and we hope to see your pack there!
Please let us know If you know of a location closer to you that will allow us to fly rockets. We’ll be happy to host/organize another Rocket Day closer to Mission Peak.
