The blue and gold is rapidly approaching, and hopefully, everyone is excited. The scouts have been working hard and it's time to celebrate their effort and recognize those who have reached the end of the Cub Scouting program and will be leaving us to bridge into Boy Scouts. I'm beyond proud of all of them, and everything achieved so far this year.
With that said, a quick recap of the timetable. The pack would like every family who attends to have a representative help with either setup or cleanup so the leaders won't have to do everything.
Setup will begin at 2:00 pm to help arrange cover and decorate the tables; setup chairs; and help with organizing food. Please have your scouts bring their uniform so it doesn't get dirty during setup, they'll have time to change.
The event will begin as close to 3:30as possible, if you're not planning to help setup, please try to be here around 3:15. Please have your scouts wear as much of their uniform as possible, and worn properly (i.e. shirts tucked in).
Around 4:30 we will relocate from the Sanctuary to the main meeting room for the dinner to be followed by the auction.
Please try to stay until after the cake bake has concluded as this is a significant fundraiser for the pack which helps to allow families to join scouting or send scouts to camp who might not be able to afford it. I expect this to wrap up around 7, if you were unable to help with setup, we'd appreciate help with cleanup - all the tables, chairs and food areas will need to be picked up.
A few other notes:
1) Please bring a checkbook for the auction, it will make our accounting much easier than cash.
Hi everyone, It's not too soon to start planning for our annual cake bake auction. Like last year, we're going to hold our auction at our Blue and Gold Dinner on February 25th. This year's theme for the event will be "Cub Scouting", meaning your cake can be themed after anything to do with scouting (hiking, camping, fishing, service, etc). Rules will be sent out closer to the event.
Hi everyone, Thanks to everyone who participated in the Bonus Pin program. I will be ordering those pins this weekend. If you have not told me you've completed it - or your den leader - please do so ASAP! Thanks, CT
Hi Pack 103 families, For those of you who have completed the Bonus pin program, congratulations! For those who have not, it was originally designed to run for the month of April; I'll extend it to May 15th at this time. If you're still working on it, please try and wrap it up in the next two weeks! Also, please let C.T. know if you are working on it, and it's not yet complete, as he'll be ordering the pins soon and would like to be sure to order enough.
The Bowl-a-thon will be a pack event this year on 12/6, beginning at 2:30pm at Kingston Lanes (formerly Hoe-Bowl on the Hill) on East Chester St. Extention.
The Rip Van Winkle Council Bowl-A-Thon will be held on December 7th or December 14th at Hoe Bowl in Kingston, (Your Den Leader will let you know which day your den will be bowling).
