End-of-season reminders

Don’t forget NEXT Monday night (6/6) we have a big picnic and Court of Honor/Crossing over and Lake Tomahawk park. The Troop and Pack are providing all the food—so no need to bring anything.

The Court of Honor is at 5 pm at the pavilion—please be on time!

Also how are the pledges coming for the car wash? The car wash will be Saturday June 12 from 8-12 noon. The top 3 pledge takers will receive prize gift of $75…$50 and $25

Our goal is to have each of our 16 lads find 20 people willing to pledge $20 in support of our efforts. This should raise $6400 if we all can do it. But even if we can’t we’ll have fun trying! Thanks again to Joe’s dad for letting us use the State farm parking lot that morning!

Calendar Changes: December

Due to some challenges related to the Hawk Patrol, I have decided (in consultation with the assistant Scoutmasters) to postpone our scheduled Court of honor from December to early February. I hope this will not be too great a disappointment for some who are hoping to be awarded their ranks and badges.

So we will have regular meetings in December (no scout master conferences) and we have been invited to the PACK 50 Christmas Party on December 15th in Fellowship Hall. I would also like to suggest that on December 1 we join Montreat Presbyterian Church in their annual Christmas Caroling tradition and have hot chocolate and goodies in the Fellowship Hall afterward.

Please remember that we will march in the Black Mountain town parade on Saturday December 6th at 4 pm (gather at 3 pm).
