Cub Scout Pack 617 in Chelsea stayed overnight on the USS Alabama in Mobile on July 30. The pack toured the Alabama, the USS Drum submarine and looked at all of the tanks and planes on display. They spent the night on board the battleship in the same quarters used by Navy servicemen 50 years ago. For most of these boys, it was their first time visiting the battleship.

The pack meets on Tuesday nights at the Chelsea Church of God on Highway 39. Anyone interested in the pack can contact Cubmaster Douglas Reinsch at dreinsch@bellsouth.net or 585-2252. Visit Chelseacubscouts.com for more imformation about scouting and the pack.
