Hello Again Friends,
I hope everyone is staying afloat, on yet another, rainy day. Please remember we will have a Pack Meeting upstairs in the Family Life Center (big gym) tonight at 7:00 pm. Have your scout wear their Class A Uniform please. The Wolf Den is in charge of set up tonight. If your child is a Wolf, please make every attempt to arrive around 6:30. Bears are in charge of the opening and closing ceremonies tonight.
Don’t forget Bear Carnival and Invite a Friend is next Tuesday night. It promises to be a fun filled night of games and participation prizes!
We will not meet the two Tuesdays after the Bear Carnival. The 9th is a regularly scheduled Leader’s Meeting. The 16th we are cancelling since we will be camping together at Camp Raven Knob for our annual Spring Family Camping Trip that Friday- Sunday (May 19th-21st). Tuesday, May 23rd will be Rank Advancement at 6:30 pm. I can’t believe the scout season is so close to summer break!
Last call for Resident Camp!! If you meant to get the paperwork in, but the deadline slipped up on you, tonight is the last chance. (Without paying a late fee.)
We will continue collecting names of children who would like to participate in Lions next year. If you have a child who will be in Kindergarten, who is very excited to get involved in scouts, just let us know. We are so excited to offer this program and would like to get a head start!
Dash sign ups are officially starting tonight. Dash Scout Night and Sleepover will be Friday, June 2nd. There are three different levels of tickets. $11.00 will purchase just your game ticket, $16.00 purchases game ticket, hat, patch, sleepover and a small breakfast Saturday morning. $21.00 upgrades you to all the above plus “all you can eat” dinner Friday evening. (Dinner is 3 items, all you can eat of those three items.) There is a Scout Parade starting at 6:15 pm. If you want to be in the parade, you will need to be there at 6:00. Game starts at 7:00 pm. They are not sure what movie will be played for the sleepover yet.
