November Pack Activities

Well, we survived our fall camping trips.  I hope everyone had a good time and survived the cold weather.  Fortunately, it wasn't wet and rainy.  Even though we just finished the fall camp-outs, we are already making plans for the spring camp-outs.  Let us know if you have any feedback or thoughts on things that you would like to see or do.  We may even try to expand the spring events to camping both Friday and Saturday nights.

Just a reminder, November is our Bake-A-Cake pack meeting.  This was mistakenly left out of the October newsletter, so make sure you remind any other scout parents to bring their cakes.  The categories for this year are Thanksgiving, Christmas, and anything Scouting (camping, etc.) and there are prizes for the top cake in each category, as well as a prize for "Best-in-Show".  Please let your sons do as much of the baking and decorating as possible.  Obviously, the older boys will be able to do much more than the younger ones, but this should be an opportunity for them to get familiar with the kitchen.

Mark your calendars for these upcoming events.  We will be selling popcorn in front of KMart from 4-7 PM on Friday, November 19th.  Then, we will be selling popcorn in front of Family Video from 3-7 PM on Saturday, November 20th.  We will credit each participating scout with a portion of the sales based on the total amount sold during that time.  This can help your scout reach a new level for their Fall Sales Prize.  A sign up sheet will be available at the pack meeting so we know how many scouts will be selling each day.

Finally, remember to turn in your popcorn money at the pack meeting on Monday, November 15th.  See you there!
