1) Scout Hut Painting! Ms. Deborah Olson of Pack 1954
has agreed to coordinate the painting of the outside of our Scout Hut.
We will all be working on this on the weekend of October 9 and 10.
Please plan on spending at least some time during that weekend helping
us on this project. Scouts who help can get partial credit
toward their Painting merit badge. The project will begin at
9:00 on Saturday morning. We'll be grilling hotdogs for lunch.
2) Court of Honor will be held on October 12 at 7:00 at Grace
Lutheran Church, at the corner of Bishop and Belvin Streets.
We'll be having a dessert buffet to honor our award winners. So,
please bring a dish of something good. 3) Junior Leader Training
will be held Saturday October 16 from 10-4 at Kiwanis Camp. Cost is
$15 and includes lunch. All newly elected PLs who have not taken this
course will need to take it at this time. If you do not take it,
you will forfeit your leadership position for this six month period.
For registration instructions please email me at
r.warms@txstate.edu .
4) Hope you're all out there selling that popcorn.
I know some of you are and are doing well. The deadline for
submitting your popcorn sales is October 26. Please bring all
your order forms and money to the meeting on that date. 5) The Cub Scout Halloween Carnival (and our
Haunted House) is set for October 28th 6) We'll be camping
at McKinney Falls with the 1954 Webelos on the weekend of October
29-31. On that trip we'll be working on the
Geology Merit Badge, as well as some Scouting Skills for the younger
scouts (and I'm sure that the older ones could use some refreshing on
that as well). |
