Submarine Overnight MAY 17-18

Pack 1592 Families,

It’s been 10 years since Pack 1592 has boarded the USS Pampanito, a Balao Class Submarine in San Francisco. The pack’s big overnight adventures rotate every year. You’ll want to make sure you take advantage of this trip as you might not get another chance! Signup and join us for an exciting overnight adventure. 

Go back in time to World War II when she patrolled enemy waters searching for ships! Spend the night in the same bunks used by the Submariners, enjoy a personalized tour from bow to stern including the engine room, Torpedo Room, Control Room, and Conning Tower, and take in the sights of the San Francisco waterfront.

As there is a ticket cost for this adventure, we are using CheddarUp to collect signups and payment: https://pampanito-overnight.cheddarup.com/ 

A parent/guardian must accompany their scout as a paid participant. We have a limited number of tickets available. Once we fill the boat up, we will be sold out.
