Welcome to a New Year of Scouting!
We would like to take time to welcome all of our new scouts and their families,
as well as our seasoned scouts and their families. Our Cubmaster, Scott Reynolds, has put together
an exciting year of activities.  I hope you will take the opportunity to participate in several of them.
It will be a great way to get to know us and your fellow scouts better and to make your
family bond stronger.  If at any time throughout the year you need to contact
us for any reason, please feel free to do so.

Popcorn Sales - For all scouts who sell $500 or more, our Cubmaster has agreed to let you personally throw a cream pie at him.  He's very
willing to take a lot of pies to help out our pack finances so we can pay for your awards and recognitions this year.

Popcorn orders will be due no later than Oct. 24th.  This is our next pack meeting.  Please have scouts name and telepone number on the order forms
before turning them in to Laura or Debbie.

Pumpkin Contest -October 24th Pack Meeting/Halloween Party
We will have a contest for the best designed pumpkin and the ugliest pumpkin.  These can be real or artificial pumpkins.  Be very creative and enjoy this as a family.

The Venture Crew will be back again this year to entertain our Cub Scouts at the party.  We are asking for donated bags of individually wrapped candy.
Just a few bags per den is all that will be necessary.


Scouting for Food & Annual Lock-in - All scouts who plan to help in this event should have their complete uniforms by this time.  This includes:
Shirt, with proper patches, neckerchief & slide, and belt.  Hats are optional, official pants and socks are not required by our pack.

Our Lock-in this year will be held on November 14th at First Christian Church on North Mulberry Street in E'town from 7:00pm to 8:30am.  There will
be a $2.00 fee for all who participate with the exception of our adult leaders.  Scouts will leave on the morning of November 15th to collect food items which
will be taken back to College Heights United Methodist Church.  These items will stock their foor pantry so holiday baskets can be made for people in our
community.
