The October Pack meeting will be at Wheelock on October 20, from
7:00-8:00pm, with a gathering activity beginning at 6:45. The theme for
this months meeting is Responsibility, and it's packed with exciting
stuff.
In years past we have had the craziest, scariest and patriotic carved pumpkins competing for bragging rights in four categories of competition. The 4 prizes will be Funniest, Best Scout Spirit, Scariest and Best Overall. Scouts with their families at home or at a den meeting design and carve their own pumpkins. If you so choose, paint them, adorn them with glitter or stickers, add a hat or other accessory, and bring them to the Pack Meeting with confidence that you will win the prize! If you do a quick google search for "carved pumpkin designs" or add "scout" to this, you will get plenty of ideas, crazy, scary or scout centric. So pick a good pumpkin, come up with a great idea and get carving with your Scout! IF LIGHTING YOUR PUMPKIN, DO NOT USE CANDLES, ONLY USE BATTERY OPERATED LIGHTING!
The highlight of the start of the year for Tigers and
other new scouts, is the earning of their Bobcat award. Den Leaders
have reported back that all Tigers and New Scouts have completed the
requirements, so its time to recognize this! Brush up on your Cub Scout
Promise, the Law of the Pack, the Cub Scout Motto, the Cub Scout
Handshake, the Cub Scout Sign and the Cub Scout Salute. Be ready to
show this with other new scouts ( your Den Leader will be there to help!
), and earn your badge!
Den 8 will be doing an outdoor "high altitude" demonstration (weather
permitting) at the end of the meeting. Not to be missed! |
