I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful break. Please read through these topics to get yourself back up-to-speed.

Time to Recharter!

It is time to pay our 2015 Scout Dues. Bring your checkbooks to the January Pack Meeting (Jan 27th) and get your 2015 dues paid up. Amounts owed will be given at the Pack Meeting. Den Leaders, I still need the name of one parent to be in charge of collecting any wayward payments from your Den.

Pinewood Derby - Almost Here!

To help you prepare for the Derby, there will be a Derby workshop with tools and assistance on January 24th at the church. All of the Derby dates are now listed in the Upcoming Dates below. Refer to the Pinewood Derby section of our website for more information.

Helping a Friend in Need

Now that the busy holidays are behind us, would you please consider helping out one of our own Pack members? Angela Rinaldo (mom of Tiger, Garrett Plomondon) is facing some health issues and could use help with meals. There are still several dates in January that we'd like to fill. Please contact us to sign up.

Den Meetings OK on Jan 13th

Due to last night still "technically" being our winter break, I have secured the church for Den Meetings next Tuesday, the 13th. Den Leaders, if your Den needs to meet, know that it is available.

Ice Fishing

Last year we participated in Pack 414's Ice Fishing Derby and they have invited us to join them again this year! Please reserve the morning of February 28th (8am-noon) to participate in this fun event! Note, it will be held at Wellington Lake in Bailey this year. More details to come as it gets closer.

Blue & Gold / Crossover Date Set

Mark Tuesday, February 17th from 6:30-8:30pm on your calendar! This is the night we will gather for dinner and celebration of all that the Scouts have accomplished this year! We will also be watching our Webelos II Scouts crossover into Boy Scouts. More details to come.

Volunteers Needed

Our need for volunteers is becoming serious. If you have an interest in helping out, please contact me to learn what positions need to be filled. It takes all of us to make this Pack a great experience for our boys - please consider stepping up.
