Webelos I Kicked Off

We had our initial Webelos parent meeting on June 21, the first day of summer; thank you all for attending! We decided to have meetings twice a month on the 1st and 3rd Mondays from 7-8:30pm. If any of those days is a holiday, we will meet the very next day (Tuesday).

Parents filled out talent surveys so we know who is interested in leading the different types of Activity Badges. Over the course of the next two years, parents will teach two Activity Badges each so our Webelos can have the opportunity to earn nearly all 20 badges. This Activity Badge Schedule will be posted on our calendar on this web site.

This year we will collect dues, starting at $20 per scout, to be used for supplies. A den treasurer is still needed to maintain this small account; contact me if interested.

Please reference the Google Calendar on this web site for meeting dates and times.
Also, make sure you read all Webelos links on this site so you are aware of the requirements and expectations of Webelos as well as us parents.

We'll see most of you at our first campout TONIGHT!

Blue & Gold Banquet

The Blue & Gold Awards banquet will be held Sunday, February 19th at the Holiday Inn at Route 8 and Hines Hill road. The entertainment will be provided by Richard, the gentleman who runs the Land of Make Believe - he does story telling an is great with kids.

We're essentially arranging the same sort of spread that was put on last year. The Holiday Inn has increased their prices from last year - its now $11 for adults and $6 for children over 3. Scouts will be free like last year. We need to have a final head count soon, so we'll be passing around a list to get a rough estimate on Friday, 1/6.

Bear Den Activities

11/14/2005

We had a really great meeting at the Hudson Library on Monday, 11/14 with Gwen Mayer giving us a library tour and some background on Hudson's history. Thanks to all parents who took time off to get your scout there by 5pm.

Our next meeting will be Monday, 11/28/05 at 7pm at the church. We will use this meeting to work on skits/songs for the campout and go over supplies to bring. We'll move the worship achievement meeting to 12/12.

Our goal is to have each scout DONE with all achievements before the new year. Parents, take some time these remaining weekends to complete remaining acheivements with your son!

Fall Campout

All leaders are meeting Thursday (11/17) at 7pm at Panera Bread in Hudson to discuss camp details (especially food). If you are interested in helping out, but not a leader, please show up! Joe Mouse is our campout coordinator.

Pack 3327 Cub Scouts -- Welcome!

Welcome to our new web site! We will use this blog to communicate all events happening in our pack. My ultimate goal is to develop a web application and host it on our home PC, but until then, we can use blogspot.

You can use a free program called 'hello' by Picasa to upload photos from events to this blog, which I'll try to do frequently.
