Food Options at Thunderbird Games: Should I bring my own lunch? Do they sell food?

We suggest you pack your own lunch and snacks/drink for Saturday. Food is sold at the Games, but the lines can be long and really cut into time for games.

Where is Pack 6 meeting at Thunderbird Games?

During the Games, there is no specific time/place for the entire Pack to meet.

We encourage dens to designate a meeting point. If everyone from a den are arriving at the same time, we recommend meeting at the main registration/check-in desk. Or, dens are encouraged to text/call each other to meet up in the mail field where the Games are being held.

Be sure to visit the Monkey Bridge, which is being run by the Boy Scouts of Troop 1 Crestwood.
