Pack 227 is sponsored by the St. Bonaventure Men’s Club located in Huntington Beach, CA. We have spring and fall recruitment events, but new scouts may join at any time (hint — get in on all the summer fun!). Many of the scouts come from St. Bonaventure School, but not all. We encourage any boy who wants to have a fun time to join our pack wherever you are from, and adult leaders, too!

Indoor Flag Ceremony
November 4th, 2009This is taken from Pack 19 in Waxhaw, NC.
Presentation of Colors – Indoors
| Narrator | Actions |
|---|---|
| Attention. Will the audience please rise? (Pause.) | The color guard waits in the back of the room for the audience to stand and become quiet. |
| Color guard, advance. | The pack flag guards and bearer are on the left, and the U.S. flag guards and bearer are on the right. With the U.S. flag in the lead, they walk in and cross so that the U.S. flag will be on the left side of the room when you look toward the front. The bearers and guards take their positions near the flag stands, facing the audience and holding the flags vertically |
| Hand salute. | Everyone, with the exception of the flag bearers and guards, salutes. |
| Please repeat with me the Pledge of Allegiance. (All join in.) | The bearers and guards stand at attention and continue to hold the flags. The pack flag is lowered slightly so that the U.S. flag stands taller. The U.S. flag guards and bearer and pack flag guards and bearer do not salute or say the Pledge of Allegiance. |
| Two. | The pack drops its salute. The pack flag is raised to its vertical position again. |
| Color guard, post the colors. | The pack flag is placed in its stand. Its guards and bearer step back into place. The U.S. flag is then posted. Its guards and bearer salute it and step back into place. |
| Color guard, dismissed. | The U.S. flag guard leads the procession to the back of the room with the narrator following last. |
Comments:
- When the U.S. flag is carried with another banner (such as the pack flag), it should always be on “its marching right” in the procession.
- If there is only a narrow aisle, the procession follows this order in single file: U.S. flag guard, U.S. flag bearer, pack flag bearer, pack flag guard.
Retiring of Colors – Indoors
| Narrator | Actions |
|---|---|
| Will the audience please rise? (Pause.) | The color guard waits in the back of the room for the audience to rise and become quiet. |
| Color guard, advance. | The U.S. flag guard and bearer and pack flag guard and bearer walk down the aisle and to the flags. They stand behind the flags, facing the audience. |
| Color guard, salute. | The guards and bearers salute. |
| Color guard, retire the colors. | The U.S. flag is removed first (just slightly ahead of the pack flag). |
| Hand salute. | Everyone, with the exception of the guards and bearers, salutes. The U.S. flag stays on its “marching right” as the guards and bearers proceed down the aisle to the rear of the room. |
| Two. | Everyone drops the salute. |

July 4th Parade Information
June 22nd, 2009Hello Cub Scout Families,
Parade starts at 10 AM.
Need to be in place by 9 AM. – Suggest arrival at 8:30 – 8:45
Enter the parade area from Goldenwest onto Orange. Parade spot numbers will be painted on the street. Class A uniforms required. Cubs and Tigers – hand held flags okay.
Cub Scouts – spot #115 – on PCH at 11th on the Ocean side of PCH (South side – Division 1) You may bring Pack Flag only. No signs, banners or Pack American Flag. Handheld flags are ok.
Tiger Float – spot #114 – on PCH between 8th and 10th on the Street side of PCH (North side – Float Formation) Parade ends at Main and Clay (near Garfield). All units should be at the end by 12:00 or 12:30. Because the Boy Scouts Garrison Flag unit is near the beginning of the parade they may be finished much earlier – around 11:30.
The Cub Scouts and Tiger Float are near the front of the parade this year. Tiger float will disband on Gothard Street just west of Main. The other units will disband on Main just south of Garfield. Please plan to pick up your Scouts when the entry reaches the disbanding area. It will be very crowded on Clay and you may have to park well east of Main Street. In the past I have advised not to try to park east of Main, but this year there are fewer streets closed to parking for the parade. However, the residents will probably be using this parking.
Please check-in with me upon arrival and departure from the parade.
In Scouting,
D.J. Clarke

June 9th, 2009You can check out the cub scout uniform inspection PDF for information on where to place all those patches and things for the cub scout uniform. As a founder’s unit, we qualify for wearing the gold rimmed Orange County Council patch on the left shoulder.

June 8th, 2009The June pack meeting will be on Thursday, June 11th at 7pm in the church hall. We will have a short parent meeting for the new Tiger Cub parents at 6:30pm. We hope to see you there!
