Hello All,
For those who were not able to pick up your trail’s end popcorn orders today, please contact me as soon as possible. I can meet you on Sunday, November 15th but I would like to keep it within the time frame of 12pm - 1pm.
Please pick up at Twin Lakes Subdivision at 340 New Milford Rd., Cary 27519 (on McCrimmon Parkway).
We do have more product available if anyone needs extra to sell, but please contact me about that immediately.
Thank you,

Hello All,
The orders have been separated and ready for pickup. Based on the number of orders to be picked up, the hours have been reduced. We will only be available on Saturday from 12 - 3 pm to pick up popcorn orders.
Please pick up at
Twin Lakes Subdivision
340 New Milford Rd., Cary 27519.
Twin Lakes is near Davis Drive and McCrimmon Corners Shopping plaza in Morrisville.
Please contact me if you have any questions.
Andrea Wright
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:
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.
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
All,
Those of us who went camping, you are all now veterans of a true camping experience (wet camping). Hope you had a good time. The boys had a lot of fun on the “trail” despite the rain and it was fun firing the bottle rocket into the air (thanks Neil).
Anyway, before I head out of town again, I wanted to get a quick message out to remind those who have not turned in their popcorn money to get in touch with Leopolda to schedule a time to go to her house to get your money turned in. I think the boys have done well in selling this year.
I am requesting that every member family have at least one person in attendance as well as we are going to be planning through the end of the year and will begin the planning for the Pinewood Derby, the Blue and Gold and camping in the spring. We have had several committee members move up with the graduating Webelos to the Boy Scouts and we need to fill in those positions. So please come prepared to volunteer on a committee or with a den. We have some great den leaders, but we also need to identify some backups for them. In addition, I need to find someone to back me up as the Assistant Cubmaster. These are all important roles and we need everyone’s participation to make things run smoothly.
I look forward to seeing folks on Nov. 5. Have a great Halloween if we don’t speak before then.
Randy
Cubmaster Pack 393pine
Hello All,
If you have popcorn orders to turn in for your son, please contact Leopolda Ramos. She will be taking the final orders at her home on Monday, Oct. 26th until 7pm. Please contact her in advance if you will be bringing your orders.
Please remember to make a copy of the order form. Please have your son to make his prize selection. All checks should be paid to Pack 393, cash cannot be accepted.
Thank you,
Andrea Wright
Pack,
Just a reminder for those who signed up for the Popcorn Show and Sell this weekend. This is the only fundraiser that we typically do to support the Pack. After talking to Leopolda, we’ve raised $1000 dollars from our first couple of Show and Sells. These locations are great, but there is a need for additional scouts to sign up and help this weekend. Please contact Andrea to sign up and have you son help support these efforts with our Pack. If you can’t make these events, please have your son sell in the neighborhood. We only have a couple of weeks to finish up.
In addition, I need to ask that a parent from each den volunteer to help with the popcorn money turn-in on October 24. That is going to be a busy week with the campout, but please contact Andrea and volunteer to help them with the den money that night. Since each den only has 4-5 boys currently, this should help facilitate this getting done quickly.
Thanks,
Randy
Don’t forget to look through the email that Andrea sent out and begin making plans for your son’s to participate in the Show and Sells for Popcorn. I’m excited this year that we have a number of Morrisville locations (the new WalMart and Sam’s Club) that should help us sell popcorn and work to our advantage in recruiting new scouts in the Morrisville area. I know that things are busy, but please support our Pack and Leopolda as she helps us be successful.
Please note that she is going to need a few volunteers to help with keeping track of Pack totals and will need a couple of people to help the District when the popcorn arrives to aid in unloading and distribution. They have asked for at least two volunteers from each Den and I believe that they need some people this week to do this and they will definitely need help when the final orders come in in November. I will ask that if you haven’t volunteered for an activity to please volunteer to help your den leaders with this to allow them to focus on the boy’s programs and please talk with Leopolda on Thursday to let her know who from our Pack can help with the District unloading and distribution.
