Cub Scout Pack 393 Bike Safety Ride - Saturday August 8th

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

I hope you’ve had a great summer. As we wind down the heat and humidity, it is time to ramp back up with scouting. I’m sure many of you have enjoyed the summer camps and activities that have been going on in the Occoneechee Council.

We will be holding a Pack Bike Ride this Saturday morning. This is an opportunity to bring out a friend, have your bike inspected and tuned-up and enjoy a morning ride in and around Lake Crabtree. We will be meeting at 9 a.m. at North Cary Park.

From 9-9:30 a.m. we will be inspecting and tuning up our Pack member bikes. Then from 9:30-11:00 a.m. we will take a group ride into Lake Crabtree Park. Be sure to bring your water bottles to keep hydrated, but we should have a great time.

The schedule heading into the fall is as follows:

  • Regular Den Meetings on August 13th and 27th
  • Regular Den Meetings on September 10th and 24th

Mark your calendars to be at the September 10th meeting as this will be our annual Popcorn Fund Raiser kickoff. Leopolda has some exciting announcements about this year’s popcorn sales.

Lastly, save the date of Oct. 23-25 as this will be the District Cuboree at Camp Durant. For those who don’t know yet, this coming year is the 100th anniversary of Scouts in America, so this Cuboree should be a bang up event for our boys to attend.

That should be enough information to get you started. I look forward to a great year with our Pack.

NEW Bear Cubs - Achievement Update 06-11-09

Friday, June 12th, 2009

Wolf Parents,

At the Lake Crabtree pack meeting, we completed Bear Cub achievement 5d (visit a nature center).
For last night’s meeting we worked on Bear Cub achievement 7a using plaster of Paris and a finger printing sheet from Creative Chemistry
http://www.creative-chemistry.org.uk/activities/fingerprinting.htm

Using the secret code provided, the scouts have to encrypt a short joke for me to decode at our next meeting.

I have attached the achievement and elective sheets I use to track each scout.

The biggest part of the year will be the Bear Den scrapbook for the year. Every den meeting, each scout will provide a sheet identifying what they did for the time between pack activities (pictures, stories, drawings, etc.). My hope is that at the end of the year, I will have a 3 inch binder full of memories.

Thanks,
Juan
