Note the information below regarding the Troop and a meeting about their summer camp information, medical forms, etc. If your son has bridged into this Troop, I encourage you to attend as there is still time for them to join the Troop at camp and help your son get well down the road to earning his Eagle. Camp is a great way for them to earn a number of merit badges in a short time.
If you have any questions about it, you can email me directly or if you can’t attend, but are interested in your boy going to camp with the Troop, let me know as I’ll be there on Tuesday night.
Just a note, as of this Tuesday night (even though the Webelos II will be racing in the Pinewood Derby with us), they should be attending their new Troop selection. There will not be a meeting of the Webelos II this Tuesday night and there will not be a Webelos II den with Pack 393 until we bridge up the Webelos I in May.

Webelos I,
Quick reminder that we will be meeting tonight as the pack has officially switched to Tuesday nights. We will be going over some of the final requirements for the boys to earn their Webelos badge. Please plan on attending. If you need a derby car, I believe that they are still available to purchase.
Over the weekend, Al and I made a schedule through May. We will review the schedule and discuss the requirements that will need to be completed at home.
The Occoneechee Council has set up a Webelos Day at Camp Durant on March 20th. I will be taking Ryan and have space for some additional scouts. I am also looking for 1 parent to attend. The cost is $12 and I will have sign up sheets tomorrow night.
Al and I are looking forward to an exciting and fun spring. See you tomorrow night.

Hey all,
I hope that everyone is ready for the holidays. I know that I am.
With that in mind, I wanted to get on everyone’s calendar to have a Cub Scout Planning meeting on either Thursday, January 7 at our typical meeting time (7 p.m. – remember we’ll be moving to Tuesdays in the New Year) or on Jan. 9, Saturday morning around 10 a.m. I’d like to try to do it on Thursday, if possible, and as I know many of us have busy weekends already, but let me know what works for folks and we’ll go with the one that the most people can make.
In the new year, much like we’re moving to Tuesdays, I’d like for us to keep the first Tuesday open for Cub Scout Planning each month, but it is particularly important that as many of us that can make the first meeting so that we can make plans through to the summer (camping, Pinewood Derby, Blue and Gold and spring camping/outings).
2010 is going to be a fun year, but I also want to thank everyone for their efforts so far this Scouting year and I wish you all a safe and restful holiday with your families.
Talk to you soon.
Randy

Pack 393,
I hope that the scouts had amazing success on Sunday and enjoyed the project. My boys were so excited at each and every door that there was a bag waiting for them!
Please bring your food and cash donations tomorrow to the den meeting. If you are unable to attend, please bring the donations to my home in Cary by Sunday evening.
There has been a suggestion of making thank you cards. I would like to encourage you to make them individually for your neighbors, especially for those who were very generous!
Please consider donating food and money yourself. What a great way to teach by example!
I really appreciate all the efforts by the pack to complete this project. I hope that you will be able to join us next week when we deliver the food. You can truly see the impact of your help!
See you tomorrow night.
Kelly Coman

Hey everyone,
I thought our first Pack meeting in a while went really well. I’m looking forward to having boys help with the flag ceremonies and learning about that. I also want to say a big thanks to Kelly for organizing our food and funds service event this weekend. The boys did great making up the bags and who won’t want to give some food or money to the boy scouts to help these families? It will be fun to see the success and I hope many can go to actually give the food and money to the families.
Just a couple of reminders:
1) We have our only meeting in December next Thursday. We will be bringing our food and money back to Kelly next week and I’m sure she will send out a reminder email later to let you know.
2) The following Saturday, December 12, is the Cary Jaycees Christmas Parade. We will be decorating a trailer in the Lowes parking lot (the one off Maynard and NC 54) at 10 a.m. and then we’ll all grab some lunch (or you can bring a bag lunch) and then we’ll meet at the rendezvous point around 12:30-1:00 to spread Christmas cheer from our float/trailer. If anyone has any decorations that they would be willing to donate, please let me know. One year we had an inflatable polar bear coming out of a cardboard chimney, which was pretty impressive. This is always a lot of fun and I’ll send out a final email with all the logistics once I get the information from the Jaycees.
3) Lastly, next Thursday we will be selling the pinewood derby car kits for the boys (Yes, race time is just around the corner). With this being our last meeting of the year, I wanted to go ahead and get the car kits out. They cost $4 or $5 per kit, so come prepared to pick yours up. I know that Brian, our Pinewood Derby race engineer, is working on scheduling at least one car building day in early January, but don’t wait until then to get your kits.
Thanks everyone for chipping in and helping with things tonight.
Yours in Scouting,
Randy
