Happy Snowy Tuesday Everyone,
Can you believe it is snowing in April? We are still on for Den Meetings tonight at 7 PM in the basement of Mt. Tabor. I don’t anticipate that to change, but please keep a watch on your email, just in case.
Current Sign-Ups:
Pack Hike is April 6th with a 12:30 pm arrival time at Hanging Rock State Park. This is a free event for scouts and families, as well as your family dog if it’s great with people and likes to hike. We do hike the Hanging Rock Trail which is 1.3 niles each way with a moderate difficulty level. We will have dinner after the hike. We will serve hot dogs and ask that you bring a side dish if your last name begins with A-O and a dessert if your last name begins with P-Z. It is a great day of fellowship with each other! The Deadline to sign up for this event is April 2.
Pack Spring Family Camping dates have changed to May 17 – 19 at Camp Raven Knob’s Kyle Johnson Shelter. This event is free and open to the families of Pack 934. Each den will be put in charge of a specific meal during the weekend (so your Leader may ask you to bring an item for the meal). It is a great time for our pack to come together as a unit and the scouts always have a great time!
Scout Night at the DASH (sleepover) May 31 at BB&T Ballpark. This event is open to friends and families. There is a pregame parade and the game starts at 7 pm. There will be fireworks after the game. They usually have a very light breakfast in the morning and we are off the field by 7am. I believe all agree that it is a great time for everyone! Tickets cost $16.00 each for sleepover, patch, and hat or $11 for tickets only. The deadline for this event is (tentatively) April 30.
Cub Scout Resident Camp at Camp Raven Knob is June 12 – 15. (Please note that is a Wed – Sat, and you WILL NEED OFF WORK to get there by noon Wed.) The theme this year is Raven’s Zoo! Resident camp is for Scouts who will be Tigers (after Advancement in May, so CURRENT Lions!) through Webelos and a parent or adult chaperone. We would love for all of our scouts to get to attend camp as it is so good for the scouts! They learn so much at this camp and work on requirements. I can’t emphasize enough how important and good it is for our scouts to go on this event! The pack helps subsidize your cost. The Raven Knob cost to the pack is $140 per Scout and $75 per adult. We are asking you to pay $75 per Scout and $45 per adult. We can break this into two payments of $60 each. 1st payment is due by April 23 and the 2nd will be due May 14. If you would like to purchase a group picture that is made when we check our group in, it will be $10 extra payable on either date. T-shirts are included in the price. Financial Assistance is available through the Old Hickory Council if it is needed, please see me at the table or email me to request a form. It will be kept confindential.
