This Saturday the 25th, we will be having our annual Blue and Gold event. We will be saying good-bye to our Web II scouts as well as our Cubmaster Brian and welcoming our new Cubmaster Felix to the Pack.  The event will start at 3:30pm with the ceremony in the Bosco hall, then will move into the social hall for cake judging and dinner. We have invited several troops to attend our event and receive their new scouts, so if you see anyone from another troop, please make them feel welcome.

As noted above we are having a cake contest as part of the ceremony.  The cake contest is for cubs and their fathers.  The theme for this year’s contest is sports.  We have placed the rules and categories for this years contest on the website under pack resources documents and forms.  We have had some really interesting cakes in the past and this year’s event will sure to bring out some very interesting cakes.  So let your imagination run wild.

The pack will be providing chicken platters for the dinner but we are looking for the following from each den:

Tigers: drinks

Wolves: Snacks – chips, fruit, etc.

Bears: Snacks – veggies, cheese crackers etc.

Web I and II: Plates, cups, utensils

We usually have a lot of people attend this event so bring plenty to share.

We are looking for volunteers to help set up the church at 1:30.  Please let Brian, Felix, or Kevin know if you can help out.

The Scout Sunday service at Blessed Sacrament will be the noon mass on February 5th. It was originally scheduled for the 5:00 PM mass but was rescheduled for less interference with the Super Bowl.

On February 11th we will have our annual Pinewood Derby.  The event will be held in the social hall and will begin at 9am.  This year we will be setting up for the Pinewood on Friday the 10th and will have a pre-registration event from 6:30 till 8:00pm.  You and your son can stop by and have your car registered and inspected and avoid the line on Saturday Morning.  Cars that get registered on Friday night can’t be touched until the end of the Derby the next day.

We will have the scale available at the next couple of pack meetings for you to weigh your car. 

Don’t forget that we will also be having our annual Chili Cook-off event.  So bring you best bowl of sweet or hot chili for our judges to sample. 

Parents, as always we will need volunteers for this event.  Please see Felix, Brian, or Kevin for more details.

We will be submitting our popcorn order Tuesday, December 6th.  So please bring in all collected monies and remaining popcorn so that we can start filling orders.
