November Pack Meeting - Circus Fun!

The theme for the pack meeting will be "Circus Fun". We will have six stations set up for the scouts to rotate through.

Following are some other items to either bring or to be prepared for:

1) Pack Dues - If you haven't paid them yet, please bring a check for $40.00/scout to the pack meeting. Make checks payable to "Pack 3327"

2) Popcorn - Please submit all forms and all money to John Kozar by Saturday, October 30. Remember, if your scout sells at least $300 worth, he'll get to throw a pie in the face of his favorite (or least favorite) leader, possibly at the December Pack Meeting. The kids love throwing pies in our faces. I can't figure out why???: ) Also remember, if your scout sells $600 worth, he'll get a $50 gift card from the pack and will also get a marshmallow crossbow from BSA and will also be able to participate in the "Scout Day at the "Q"" and will get a free ticket for each of the following: an Indians, Cavs, Gladiators, and Lake Erie Monster game. So if your scout is close to either goal, go out and get it.

3) Salvation Army Bell Ringing - Please check your schedule for December 11th as I will be bringing a sign-up form for the annual Salvation Army Bell Ringing on 12/11 from 11am to 5pm. I believe this is our 4th year doing this and the kids always have fun especially if they ring with one or more of their best scouting buddies. It will be at the Walmart on Hudson Drive in Cuyahoga Falls next to Route 8. You can sign up for as much time as you want. Typical blocks of time are 1/2 hour or an hour. Just from experience, a half hour goes by very quick. By the time you get there, talk with scout parent in prior time slot, then talk w/ scout parent in next time slot, it seems like you're only there for about 15 minutes. For Bears or anyone else who won't be at the pack meeting, please contact Steve Mileski with your preferred time slot in advance of the pack meeting.

4) Shooting Patches - We will hand out shooting patches that most of the scouts earned at the fall campout. Bears received theirs if they attended Friday's den meeting since they won't be at the pack meeting. If your Bear wasn't at the den meeting and won't be at the pack meeting, please contact me and I'll get him his shooting patch soon instead of making him wait until December.

5) Awards - Some den leaders will hand out other awards prior to the Circus Skills/Games.

6) Baked Goods Raffle - Please bring at least a few dollars for your scout to buy some raffle tickets for the Baked Goods Raffle that we have at almost every pack meeting at HUMC. One den brings baked goods to each meeting (Webelos 1s for this meeting) that are raffled-off. The scout will hold the goodies he brought and will pick the ticket out of a basket and call the number. Which ever scout has the winning ticket will win the baked good.
