Camp Registrations Due March 31

This is a friendly reminder to everyone that all camp registration forms are due to Amy NO LATER THAN Tuesday, March 31.  This includes the pack registration form, any camp cash certificates your scout has earned, and any payment you owe.  Please remember that if you would like a camp t-shirt for your camper(s), there is an added $10 cost per shirt this year.  Camp will not provide a free one like in years past.  If you choose to pay for camp via check, please make it out to "Pack 118".  If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email Amy at ALL4980@charter.net

Also, every scout & adult attending camp will need a BSA medical form filled out.  These will be made available to everyone at our April pack meeting.

**Amy's Tiger den will  not be at the school this coming Tuesday, March 24.  If you would like to turn in paperwork that night, please give it to Ryan or your son's den leader.  Den leaders, if you are given any camp paperwork/payments, please bring them to the committee meeting on the 27th.** 

Pinewood Reminders

Just a reminder that our pinewood derby is quickly approaching!!  Friday, March 13 from 6-7:30 will be our check in night.  Bring your finished car up to the school at some point during that time frame and we'll weight it on our official scale and make sure it's race ready!  (Cars will be held overnight to ensure that they don't break pre-race) The races will commence on Saturday, March 14 from 3:30-6 in the cafeteria.  If you cannot attend the check in on Friday night, it's very important that you arrive prior to 3:30 on Saturday so your car can be checked in and fixed as necessary.  Once the races start, more racers cannot be added.  Make sure all cars are build according to the specs on our Pinewood derby rules and regulations page.  

We will have some light refreshments available for sale as well.  Remember to "do your best" and have fun!  Good luck everyone!!

Campership Applications Due

This is a friendly reminder to everyone that our pack campership forms are due to Amy LaRoche this week.  Anyone who feels that the cost of camp will keep their scout from attending scout camp this summer should feel free to fill out our pack campership form to apply for assistance.  Forms were given to every family at the Blue and Gold Banquet, but if you are in need of another one, or if you have any questions,  please contact Amy at ALL4980@charter.net  Rest assured that all applications will be kept confidential. 

 Don't forget that all camp registration forms and payments are due to Amy by March 31!

Hello Webelos 1 Den

Hi Everyone in the Webelos 1 den, 

I hope you all had a great vacation week. 

Due to Quaboag Middle/High School having an open house for the 6th graders on Tuesday night I will have to cancel our den meeting. My oldest is in the 6th grade and we will be going to the open house. 

Our next meeting is scheduled for March 3rd and we will be finishing the Artist badge. I will also be collecting the handbooks so I can update each of the books. 

Thank you, 

Sheri" 

Becker College Field Trip

This is just an update to everyone that our field trip to Becker College, originally scheduled for February 28, has been postponed.  The college has another event that day and they weren't sure if there'd be enough room for us to join them.  We are working with our contact person on finding a date in March so we will let everyone know when that date becomes available.

Thank you!!

We'd like to send out a huge thank you to everyone who attended our blue and gold banquet last Saturday!  The food was delicious and we're so proud of all the boys on earning so many advancements!  The songs and skits were great too!  A HUGE thank you to committee members Paul, Kelly, Melissa, Tim, and Amy as well as our special guests Ben and Jason for all their help setting up and cleaning up.  

All boys that attended the blue and gold received his pinewood derby kit.  A reminder that our pinewood derby is taking place on Saturday, March 14, with our car check in night on the 13th.  Please refer to our pinewood rules and regulations page on this blog for exact specifications.  If you did not receive a car, you will at your next den meeting.  

Anyone wanting more information on summer camp, please check out our summer camp page on this blog as Amy is updating it with tons of information.  Remember that if you have questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to her at ALL4980@charter.net
