If you can give Andrea Wright a call to set up a pick up time for your son’s popcorn. It is important that we pick up the orders and deliver them this week as we had promised our customers that their orders would be in this before Thanksgiving. Let’s not disappoint them. Great job on the sale everyone and lets support Leopolda and Andrea and make their jobs easy this weekend.

Also, just a reminder that we will be having a Pack meeting on December 3 at 7 p.m. at the Triangle Church building. There will be more details out about this soon, but we want to take this opportunity to recognize any of the achievements that the boys have earned/completed this summer and fall. Please let your den leader know what achievements and belt loops your son has completed soon and I ask that the Den leaders make sure that Vivek gets details about whatever awards you have for your boys no later than next Friday, November 20.

Talk to you all soon and remember that there will be no meeting in two weeks on November 26 due to the Thanksgiving holiday. I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.

Parent Leader Meeting – Upcoming Events

Friday, November 6th, 2009

Parents and leaders,

Thanks for attending the meeting tonight. I feel great about the volunteers that we had and encourage everyone to participate with the upcoming events as we have a lot of great events planned. As a reminder, here are the committees that we have and that need support:

  1. Recruitment/Registration/Retention: Jeannie Repage (Chair)
  2. Fundraising (popcorn): Leopolda Ramos (and everyone give her congrats for all of her efforts to coordinate this event for our Pack – it is a lot of work and she handled it well)
  3. Blue and Gold: Thanks to Marilyn Adams for volunteering to chair this committee – she won’t be able to do it alone so consider volunteering to help support her for this once a year but important event. It is just around the corner on February 21.
  4. Pinewood Derby: Brian Flack (Chair) and Rudy Rowell is the only other member. They can’t do this alone, so please help volunteering to help with this event coming up in January. We need to start planning to have some derby car building activities in December and early January so that every boy is ready to race.
  5. Communications and Social Committee: Juan Ramos (Chair)
  6. Camping Committee: (needing a chair), Vivek and I are the only BALOO trained members of the Pack who can take us camping, and Bobbi is going to send out details on the upcoming training that will offer this key training for us. We need a couple of others to get trained so we have plenty who can officially take us out into the woods.
  7. Cubmaster: Randy Basinger
  8. Assistant Cubmaster: Open slot. I would love to have someone to assist me in this role.
  9. Pack Trainer: Bobbi Stanley
  10. Treasurer: Bobbi Stanley
  11. Tiger Den: Brian Flack, Leader
  12. Wolf Den: Neil Donovan, Leader
  13. Bear Den: Juan Ramos, Leader
  14. Webelos I: Kelly Coman and Al Sullivan, Leaders
  15. Webelos II: Titus Taylor and Ron Repage, Leaders

We need some assistants for the younger dens, so please consider helping these folks out in these roles.

As I mentioned, think about it through this month and let me know how you would like to help the Pack at our planned pack meeting in December.

ANNOUNCEMENT: The Boy Scout Troop is moving their meeting night to Tuesdays starting in January and it was discussed that we need to move the Cub Scout meeting night to coincide with the Boy Scouts for many reasons. So the plan is that starting with our first meeting in January we will go to the second and fourth Tuesdays each month.

That means our first meeting in January will be on Tuesday, January 12th.

Please mark your calendars for this change and also let me know if this creates any hardship for you. We want all of the boys to be able to participate in Scouting and I want to work with you, so let me know.

UPCOMING EVENTS through the end of the year:
Den Meetings on Thursday, Nov. 12
No meeting on Thursday, Nov. 24 (Thanksgiving)

Pack Meeting on Thursday, December 3 (we are going to start having Pack meetings every other month on the first Tuesday of the month)

Den Meeting on Thursday, December 10 (this will be the final meeting of the year due to Christmas holidays)

Cary Christmas Parade on Saturday, December 12 (more details on this to come, but I’ve talked with the Boy Scout Troop and I believe our Troop and Pack will be walking in this together, we’re even talking about doing a float again, so keep watching your email for details, but save the date. This is always fun for the boys.)

Lastly, Kelly Coman is going to be providing details on a community service food drive that we did last year and will be doing again this year, so watch for her email and there will be further details at the December 3 Pack meeting.

In the Future: There are plans to go to the next Scout Night with the Carolina Hurricanes (this should fulfill one of the Tiger’s Go-See-Its). Watch for emails on the details as we need to buy tickets by December 30. The game itself is the Hurricanes against the Avs and it is Friday January 8.

There are a whole bunch of other fun events upcoming. Thanks for all who are already volunteering and I am excited about the future of Pack 393.

Yours in Scouting,

Randy
