Raingutter Regatta

Just a reminder that our Raingutter Regatta race will be our January pack event.  This is being held next Tuesday, January 14th at 6:30 in the WBES cafeteria.  Every boy should have received a boat kit by now.  If you still haven't received one, please email Ryan at evannpd@charter.net so one can be given to you ASAP.  Please construct the boats according to the directions in the box.  

Don't forget that our Blue and Gold Banquet is coming up on February 8th.  It will be a potluck meal so we would like everyone to RSVP with how many people will be attending with your family and what dish you will be bringing (no desserts please).  Will will have a list if you'd like to rsvp there, you can email Ryan at the above address, or you can comment on this post by clicking on the "comment" button below.  In the next week or so we will post the dish list here so everyone can see what dishes are being made.  

Tuesday also kick starts our penny wars and can drive to help raise money for camp.  We will also be accepting Sharks ticket order forms (remember the deadline for that is Feb 8) and payment.

Mill Town District Cub Olympics

As promised in the January Courier, here's the information regarding the district event for the winter.  If you are interested in signing up, you must do so before or at the Raingutter Regatta next Tuesday, January 14th.  

The event is being called the Mill Town Cub Olympics and it is taking place on Saturday, February 1st at Treasure Valley Scout Reservation in Rutland.  The event takes place from 9am until 2pm on the West (day camp) side of the valley.  Lunch will be served and every participant will receive a patch.  The cost to attend is $9 for kids and $7 for adults.  The day will consist of boys going around to different activities including games, scout skills, and other projects.  Please dress appropriately for the weather since it will be outside. 

If you want to see the ad on the Mohegan Council website, here's the link: http://mohegancouncilbsa.doubleknot.com/events-activities/52119  The pack needs to register as a pack and not individuals, so we need all registration fees by January 14th (the Raingutter pack event) so we can turn them in on time.  You can pay with either cash or checks made payable to "Mohegan Council".  If you want to attend, please email Ryan at evannpd@charter.net and let him know how many people will be attending.  No one will be officially registered for this event until the fees are paid.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Pack 118 would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy 2014!

Congratulations to not only our bobcat recipients, but to all of our boys on the hard work they've completed so far this scouting year.  

Boys received their Raingutter Regatta boat kits at this meeting.  If you did not attend the meeting, you will receive your boat (and your new neckerchief!) at your next den meeting.  The raingutter regatta pack meeting will be held on Tuesday, January 14 at our usual time, so don't wait too long to make the boats.  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Ryan at evannpd@charter.net

White Christmas in WB

We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year!  

Cub Scout Couriers have all been mailed, emailed, or handed out, so watch your mailbox!  Our next pack event will be our holiday party on Tuesday, December 17th from 6:30-7:30.  

Our next event will be held this coming Sunday, December 8 from 12-3pm.  West Brookfield is hosting it's annual White Christmas in West Brookfield and Pack 118 plays a part in that.  We will have a bake sale at the school (in the back hallway) to help raise money for summer camp.  We are in need of baked goods to sell.  (We will also have leftover corn packs and cocoa jars)  We are also in need of scouts to come and help us sell the goods.  Any scout that comes up to help out for at least 1 hour will receive a portion of our profit to put toward summer camp tuition.  Please email Amy at ALL4980@charter.net if you are interested in volunteering.

If you would like to bake something for us to sell, Ryan will be at the school on Sunday at 11:30.  Goods may be dropped off any time after that.  If you cannot make it Sunday to drop goods off, but would still like to bake, please email Ryan at evannpd@charter.net and he can arrange a time to get together. 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email either of the above addresses.  We hope to see everyone on Sunday!
