Happy New Year, Pack 39! Hoping that everyone has had a tremendous holiday season and that you are ready to get back into the school routine next week! Skate Night 2017

Skate Night is still on! The lake anticipates opening like planned tomorrow evening. Please join us for a FUN night of skating on the lake, Tuesday, January 3rd, 6-8 pm. In honor of the amazing job the scouts did selling popcorn, this will be a Pack sponsored event (no charge for your scout). We will have our own dedicated warming hut and rink. Do not miss out on this wonderful event!!!

Show up at 5:30 to buy tickets from the cub scout table and canopy that will be set up in front of the lake house, rent skates and enjoy the private warming hut. Skating will begin at 6 pm.

2017 Recharter is Almost Here

Just a heads up that our annual Recharter is almost upon us. We are finalizing numbers (dues amounts and popcorn contributions) and will let you know your amount due in the next couple of weeks. Each Den will need to have one parent responsible for collecting Recharter forms and dues from your Den. If you are interested in this role, please speak with your Den Leader.

Class B Uniforms & Pack 39 Patches

Class B shirts will be available at Pack Meetings for $15 each. We have an assortment of kids and adult sizes. We received a new shipment of small and medium sizes! In addition, we have exclusive "Pack 39" patches for $3 each. Please see a Den Leader or our Treasurer at the next Pack meeting if you'd like to purchase any of these items.

If you purchased a Class B t-shirt that was the wrong size, you may exchange it (if not previously worn or washed) at the next meeting.
