Post date: Feb 20, 2014 7:49:23 AM

Hi pack -- It was great to see you all Cubs and families who came out for Scout Sunday last week. Pastor Arnold was impressed how well-behaved the kids were.

Here's our calendar for February with some notes.

BRING YOUR OLD PINEWOOD DERBY CARS TOMORROW

Returning Cubs, please bring your old Pinewood Derby cars to the pack meeting so that new kids can see what you have done.

RANK ADVANCEMENT AND DEN MEETINGS

All boys need to complete the requirements for their rank before the end of May in order to earn the badge. After May they all move up together but can't go back to earn a missed badge. We'll be putting more focus on rank requirements the next few months, because we want all boys to move up! Please speak with your den leader if you have any questions.

HELP NEEDED

We still need 6 more volunteers to run the Pinewood Derby on Saturday, March 1. It will be about a three-hour commitment that day. No experience necessary. This is one of the most fun events of the year for the boys, and we can't do it without your help!

Thanks,

Mike Conte

Cubmaster, Pack 345
