Uniform Inspection at the Dec. Pack Meeting (Dec. 16)

12/01/2011

 
    We'll be having a uniform inspection at the December 16 (Friday) pack meeting.  Be sure your Scout is ready by looking at the uniform inspecion sheets in our documents area.  
    Scouts should be present in as complete an uniform as they own. We don't expect you to go out to buy things specifically for this inspection.  Note: You may use the inspection sheets to make sure that patches are placed correctly. 
    We'll inspect the Scouts, then the Scouts (selected by the Cubmaster) will get to inspect the adults. It should be fun.

Tuck those shirts in, please.

Christmas Trees

12/01/2011

 
  If you are planning on purchasing a freshly cut Christmas tree, please consider supporting local Boy Scout Troops while doing it.  Troop 17, who is also chartered by the OCC and has many former Pack 13 members, has been running a tree lot directly across the street from the church for over 50 years.  Consider helping them (or one of our town's other troops) out by buying from their lot. Note: you may even see some of our own Webelos there.
 

Pack 13 needs your help!

12/01/2011

 
Just as a Cub makes the Pack go, so do adult volunteers.  We have many positions to fill, and are asking for parents' help.  Many positions are "non-uniformed", and require just a little of your time.  You'll be rewarded with the knowledge that you helped our Cubs get he most out of their time in the pack. Details are here.
