Update from the Popcorn Kernel

An update from the Pack 661 Popcorn Kernel

Thanks to all the Scouts and Parents for making this years popcorn sale a success. I am finishing up the entry of the orders this evening and it looks like we are on track to have about $15,000 in sales again this year. That means we are eligible to have our popcorn delivered. I will send out another update when I find out more of what that will look like.


I have had a lot of order forms that didn't have a gift card selection on them. If your Scout is eligible for a gift card but forgot to mark it on their sheet, you still have time to give me a call. If I don't hear from you by Tuesday evening October 25th then your Scout will get a WalMart card.




Thanks so much

Clean-up of South Park, Sat. Oct 22

Hi
A message from the Conestoga District...

Volunteers wanted for South Park Cleanup

The friends of South Park and the Allegheny County Parks Foundation are hosting a cleanup in South Park on Sat. October 22 from 8:30am to noon. Volunteers are asked to meet at The Cabin behind the Fairground Track to receive assignments and instructions. We will ask volunteers to either pick up litter or assist in the removal of invasive vines and plants.

Volunteers of all ages or ability may participate and children under adult supervision are welcome. After a few hours of making South Park beautiful, participants can meet back at the Cabin for a free lunch. All volunteers should wear clothing appropriate for the weather, sturdy shoes, and heavy work gloves. The Foundation will provide all other equipment.

While you are encouraged to preregister, is isn't required. 412.281.5595 or info@acparksfoundation.org
