Summer is over, but the fun is just getting started!

When: Sunday, 10/12/14
Where: Spreading Oak, Altoona, and Monroe Groves in South Park
Times: 11 AM to 3 Pm (approximately)
Why: Because it's fun!

Many scheduled events including Archery, BB, Slingshots, Rubber-band Guns, and much, much more!

Cost is $9/Scout. Registration begins at 10:30 a.m., with the activities starting at 11 a.m. The Pack must pre-register. If you plan on attending, please email your RSVP to cubscouts661@verizon.net no later than Friday, October 3 (by 6 pm). We'll collect your $9 at check-in on the twelfth.

Also needed: 2-3 adults with younger Scouts to learn the registration ropes this year from Brandon (our Cub Fun Day guru), as he will be moving up with his sons to Boy Scouts when they cross over this spring.

Hope to see lots of you on the 12th!

Troop Track Update

A quick word about Troop Track - apologies for any confusion that may have occurred from the automatic update that recently distributed. The blank den meetings that showed up were placeholders until the den schedules were finalized. The system is still a work in progress - and we are still learning the quirks - so thanks for bearing with us!

First Pack Meeting this Monday, 9/8!

Join us at the first Pack Meeting of the year Monday night, September 8, at 7 pm in Fellowship Hall at Westminster Presbyterian Church! We're asking that each Cub Scout invite 1-2 friends to check out the Pack on Monday night. Guests can join right in and be a part from the start!

While the boys have fun, we'll be sharing information and applications with all potential new families. Additionally, our Tigers will be receiving their neckerchiefs!

If you'd like a flier to print and use as an invitation, please email Shelby with the subject "Pack Meeting Invite." We look forward to seeing you on Monday!
