Cub Scout Pack 3650 has a long and storied history that dates back to 1949 when it began as Pack 151, meeting at the Redgranite Town Hall and chartered by a group of dedicated citizens. Over the years, the pack experienced several changes in its Charter Sponsor, from the Knights of Columbus/Redgranite Fire Department to the Wild Rose Lions Club and the Wild Rose Fire Department. Along the way, they collaborated with organizations like the Wild Rose Kiwanis to fulfill their mission of nurturing young scouts in the Wild Rose, Wautoma, and Redgranite communities.
Pack 3650's journey was marked by various milestones, including the merger with Pack 3651 in 2009 to form a multi-community pack. Notably, in 2017, they embraced a significant transformation when the Boy Scouts of America began welcoming girls to join their ranks. The pack, now known as Pack 3650, has since been an inclusive and diverse space where boys and girls alike can explore the world of scouting.
Throughout its tenure, dedicated leaders like Cubmaster Leonard Erickson in 1955 and Cubmaster Charles Bell played crucial roles in guiding young scouts on their adventures. From Pack 151 to Pack 3650, the pack's commitment to shaping the character and values of the youth has remained steadfast, leaving a lasting impact on generations of scouts and the communities they serve.
