Final Popcorn Details

We're down to the final stretch. You don’t want to miss out on these last notices!

November 10 (TOMORROW) - Prize selections due—Please let John know what items your scout would like. If you sold over $650, you have the choice of either the tin can robot or a knife in addition to your normal prizes, please let John know which you prefer. Otherwise you’ll get the robot as default. If you do not give John your prize selections, your scout will not receive his prizes!!!

November 12 – PIZZA PARTY!!!

November 30 - all money for take order popcorn due to John Hansen, preferably by the November pack meeting or before if possible.

November’s Pack Meeting, November 29th, 6:30-8 pm

We are packing in A LOT this month!!! So much that the Pack meeting will start a half-hour earlier.

  • Dads (or uncles, big brothers, grandpas...) and Lads... get your CAKE on!! It's time for our annual Dad & Lad Cake Bake! Get creative and bring your best delicacy to the Pack Meeting! It does not have to be a cake - brownies, cupcakes, etc. are all acceptable, but please respect our host church's NO NUT POLICY. All cakes will be judged by Den (including a sibling class) on the following categories: Most Original, Best Looking, Best Scouting Theme

  • Pine Wood Derby kits will be handed out to scouts and siblings in exchange for TWO CANNED GOODS (each child) to support our local food banks.

  • Bobcat ceremony for our new scouts.

  • Two entertaining skits by the Wolf and Bear dens.

  • Our top seven popcorn sellers will be choosing their adult "victim" to take a pie in the face! Be afraid... be very afraid!

Thank You for your Support

A big thank you goes out to our newest volunteers. None of these programs would be the success they are without your hard work and dedication.

Jennifer Grummer & Christina Hayden – Event Coordinators

Maria Meyer – Treasurer

Chris Pulioff – Pine Wood Derby Lead (with an all-star team!)

2016 Conifer Holiday Parade

Mark your calendars, the 2016 Conifer Holiday Parade is around the corner. December 3rd. Last year we rose to the challenge with a Star Wars theme, this year we need help with a theme for a Rocky Mountain Christmas. If you are interested in helping organize the scout’s involvement in the event, please let Joel Martin or a leader know.

Skate Night 2017

The first den meeting of the 2017 year will be a night of skating on Evergreen Lake. Join us Tuesday, January 3rd, 6-8 pm at the lake. 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!!!

December Pack Meeting, December 13th

As in years past, our December Pack Meeting will take place at Elk Run Senior Center in Evergreen where we traditionally call BINGO for their residents. Due to the proximity to Christmas, the Pack meeting will be held earlier on the 13th. This is always a fun event and the residents love it! More details to come.

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 (Ellen Williams) 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.
