Our Pack’s Quiet Force for Growth
Building Bat Houses with Scouts
Favorite point of the Scout Law: Reverent.
Honestly, that says a lot. In a world that loves to shout “look at me,” Eric’s a believer in gratitude & remembering there’s something bigger than ourselves. That kind of mindset quietly shapes strong kids.
Eric Hoffman (Mr. Eric)’s Scouting story started back in 2022 when his son joined as a Lion, but this isn’t his first rodeo. As a kid, he worked his way up to Arrow of Light, giving him a firsthand understanding of what these Scouts are working toward.
When asked what keeps him coming back, Eric keeps it simple: helping Scouts grow. Not just tying knots & earning badges, but building character, learning values, & figuring out how to be good humans. That’s the stuff that sticks.
Outside of scouts, he stays involved in the community as a member of the Knights of Columbus in Marysville, continuing that same spirit of service beyond the pack.
When asked what he enjoys most about Pack 89 - his answer is...wtching kids build friendships outside the usual school circles & seeing them grow up into capable, confident young people. That’s the long game & he’s playing it well.
Now let’s get to the important stuff...camp food. Eric’s not overthinking it: S’mores. Classic. Messy. Zero regrets. Some traditions don’t need improving.
Rusty's Wild Wisdom about Eric..
Rusty's Wild Wisdom about Eric..
"Mr. Eric may not be the loudest in the dne, but don't let that fool you! He's always watching, always guiding, & somehow always right where he needs to be. He helps Scouts grow into the kind of folks who do the right thing even when nobody's looking. And around the campfire? He's got s'more in one paw and a life lesson in the other. That's what I call sneaky wisdom."
