Day of Service

This Friday, April 25 from 10am-2pm Pack 118 will be hosting a day of service for our Elementary School as a way to say thanks for supporting our pack.  Any interested scouts and adults may join our Arrow of Light den in this wonderful service project.  We are asking for donations of rakes, clippers, handsaws, wheelbarrows, gardening gloves, etc if you are planning on attending.  (of course we'll give them all back!) Please wear grubby clothes as you will most definitely be getting messy!  Thus far, the day is looking to be beautiful so wear hats, sunglasses, bugspray, and sunblock.   Don't forget your water bottle!!  Pack 118 will supply lunch as a thank you to all our helpers.  Please join us!!

Camp Registrations Due

This is just a reminder that all yellow camp registration forms are due to Amy by Friday, April 18th.  Please make sure to include your registration fee and any Mohegan Council Campership letters you may have received.  If paying by check, you can make the check out to "Pack 118".  Remember that all boys and adults attending camp must have a BSA medical form filled out and returned to Amy by Tuesday, June 10 (the pack's graduation ceremony)  If you have any questions, please contact Amy at ALL4980@charter.net

Scouting For Food

We all know that little boys eat--ALOT!!  Unfortunately, some families have to choose between food and other necessities.  Pack 118 is going to help.  We are holding our first annual Scouting For Food food drive.  From now until our April 15th pack meeting, boys are asked to distribute the specially marked bags (these were given to everyone this past week, except for the Tigers who will get them Tuesday) to family, friends, neighbors, parents coworkers, teachers, etc.  Our hope is that these people will fill these bags with foods we can donate to the Sharing Cupboard food pantry right here in West Brookfield.  Boys should collect the filled bags back before the 15th and bring them to our pack meeting that night.  At the meeting the boys will sort the food and box it up for delivery to the food pantry.  Our goal is 200 bags!  We will have a pizza party for the boys in celebration of a job well done.  

 

The pantry is in great need of:

Cans of Coffee

bottles of juice

any kind of crackers

any flavor of jelly

boxed pasta other than elbows and spaghetti

Please remember that all donations must be non perishable and should not be expired.  We will have to throw away any expired donations.  

Let's all work together to help those in our community!
