Halloween Party a Success!!

A HUGE thank you to everyone who attended our Halloween party Friday night!  The costumes were great, the games were fun, and the slime was gross!!!  A very special thank you to everyone who helped set up and clean up!  And an even more special thank you to the Samek family here in town that donated our pumpkins for the pumpkin decorating contest!  They all looked great!  Our Webelos 1 den is the first winner of the Pack 118 Spirit Stick and will get bragging rights until our next pack meeting when another den can step in to try to win it.  Our next pack meeting will be our camp-in.  Watch for info coming on that soon!  Happy Halloween everyone!  Make sure it's fun, yet safe! 

HALLOWEEN PARTY!!!!

Don't forget everyone...our Halloween Party/Pack Meeting is this Friday from 6:30-7:30 pm at the school.  We'll have lots of games, crafts, a costume contest ( so make sure you wear yours) and other spooky yet fun activities!  The whole family is invited to attend so bring them all!  Also, remember that if you get a friend who isn't a scout to join scouts, you will receive a very special and very rare recruiter patch!  So bring your family AND friends!!!

Also, the District Spookaree will be held on Saturday starting at 5pm!  Everyone should have received a flyer with info about this event.  Every boy receives a patch for attending!  This is set up similar to our party, but with one huge advantage...the entire district is there!  This is a great opportunity for our scouts to meet others from surrounding towns.  AND ITS REALLY FUN!!!  If you need any more information, please don't hesitate to contact our cubmaster!

Bobcat Badge

For all of those scouts who are new to the program this year, you should be working on earning your Bobcat badge.  The bobcat badge makes sure you're ready to work toward other scouting ranks.  You should be practicing your cub scout promise, the law of the pack, the sign, salute, handshake, and what WEBELOS means.  Mom and Dad should read over the small pamphlet in the front of your handbook that talks about child abuse.  Once you know everything and talked with an adult about the pamphlet, let your den leader know!  He/she will make sure you're comfortable and will put you in for your award!  This badge MUST be earned before you can be awarded any belt loops, rank badges, electives, etc, so work hard!

IMPORTANT UPDATE!! IMPORTANT UPDATE!!

Due to family fun night being sponsored by the school on Friday, October 28, we've had to change our pack meeting date. 

OUR HALLOWEEN PACK MEETING/PARTY WILL NOW BE HELD ON

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2011  FROM 6:30-7:30PM!!

Everything else will go on as normal!  Please pass this information along to any other scouts who may not know!  Also, don't forget that the district Spookaree is the following day starting at 5pm!  Two days of Halloween fun back to back.  How can you go wrong?!!!!  Any questions, contact our cubmaster!
