Calendar of Events


Here is a cub scout calendar of events for January-August 2016.  There may be additions and/or deletions as we go along, but for now this is the plan.

This calendar does not include den meetings.

January
     28th - 6:30 pack meeting.  We will be having fun with Nerf Guns.  Please bring a nerf gun (and any extras you may be willing to share) along with nerf bullets.  Label your belongings before coming (we will have tape and markers at the meeting if you forget).  If you do not have a nerf gun let me know and I will make sure that there will be enough extras.  Siblings are welcome to participate.  (Scouts will receive their Pinewood Derby car kits to prepare for February's meeting. If any siblings would like a car kit, please let me know by January 4th.  Sibling kits will cost $4 each.)  Scouts will also be receiving their Applebee's Pancake breakfast tickets to sell.

February
    7th - Scout Sunday.  We will not be doing anything formally as a pack, but if your scout attends church he may wear his uniform.

    27th - Snowbox Derby at Dryhill (district-wide event).  More details later.

    28th - 7:45AM Applebee's Breakfast fundraiser.  The scouts will be seating guests, serving, and cleaning up.  We are hoping to raise money for an enclosed trailer.

March

Information

Tomorrow is the Clayton Christmas parade.  We will meet at Guardino Elementary by 5:30.  Remember to dress warmly...and don't forget your Hawaiian/brightly colored shirt and Christmas hat.  :)

Since our pack sold enough popcorn, we will be purchasing a Pack 74 t-shirt for all the scouts and leaders.  Wendy Cornell will be contacting everyone to get sizes.  I know she talked to some of you already, but if not keep your eye out for her email.  If any parents or grandparents would like one just let Wendy know and she will let you know the price.

Don't forget that our Pack has a beautiful tree on display at the TI Museum in Clayton, thanks to Tammi Shimel.  Go check it out!

December 17th at 6:30 is our next pack meeting.  This will also be the Arrow of Light bridging ceremony. 

December 22nd at 6pm is the planning meeting for any adults who would like to help plan our pack's activities for the remainder of the school year.

Popcorn prizes have come in.  Some of you got them at last night's den meetings.  If you haven't gotten your prize yet I will bring them to the den meetings on Tuesday.  If you don't have a den meeting that night, just contact me and make arrangements to pick it up.  Otherwise I will bring them to the pack meeting on December 17th.
