Introduction

Welcome To The Pack 3124 Web Site

The pack web site was designed to be a communications tool and events calendar for all the members of the pack.  Den Leaders and the pack committee members may post news items or events which will be entered on the event calendar.  Notifications will be automatically sent to the parents about the item by the web site.

For example; if the leader of Den 99 enters a den meeting, each parent in Den 99 will receive a notification.  Similarly, if the leader later changes the meeting or updates the information, another notification will be sent to the parents of Den 99.

Notifications will be sent by

Pack 3124 [news@pack3124.org] or

pack3124@pro6.abac.com

Home Page

Most of what you will want to see on the web site will be available from the home page.  The upcoming events will be summarized and there are links to the other sections of the site. Most links and icons will display a tips if you hover your mouse over them.

Notice the link to register is displayed at the top of the page. You will need to register to access all parts of the site and to receive notifications about upcoming events pertinent to your scout.

The web site is a work in progress. There are currently some parts of the site which you may visit without registering which will be restricted in the near future.

The Icons

• Add New Event - The link is at the bottom of the home page. In the future, only Den Leaders and members of the Pack Committee will be able to add new events.
• Edit Event - To be able to edit an event you will need to be the author or the webmaster.
• Delete Event - To be able to delete an event you will need to be the author or the webmaster.
• Print - This currently prints the page. In the future this will give you a printer friendly version of the event for printing.
• Comment - This will allow feedback from parents, such as asking a question about the event. It is not enabled today.
• Subscribe - You will already be subscribed to items for your son's Den and for items which apply to the entire pack.  If you see an item for another den or for the committee you would like to keep track of, then you may subscribe to that item by clicking the icon.
• Synchronize to Calendar - If your personal e-mail client can read "iCalendar" appointment items, (most non-web based e-mail programs can,) then you can add the event to your personal calendar by clicking the icon.  This works a little different for every browser and e-mail client, so you may have to experiment. I have to save the item before I can open it (and add) to my Outlook calendar.  Some people report it doesn't work for them.  Your mileage may vary.

NEXT :: Registration

Pack 3124 is lead by a volunteer committee of parents of scouts that meets one evening per month during the school year. If you are interested in participating on the committee or volunteering to coordinate a specific event, please speak with one of the pack leaders or committee members at any pack function. No scouting experience required.
