Leaders and Scouts
It is just about time for our largest pack event of the year. Given the expected number of people, we have made arrangements to have the event in the Pasco recreation center up on US41 on the left hand side (heading North). About 10 minutes north of SR 54. The facility is a little larger so all the parents to spread out a little to cheer their scouts onto victory. The defending champs this year are held by two bears and a wolf so let’s see what this year brings.
View Larger Map
Given the number of children, and yes a few adults, we have racing cars, Check-in will be between 6:30-7:00. The scouts are on the registration list so they will just need to have their car weighed in. We are asking if you have other children that are racing, please let your den leader know in advance so they can add the name to the registration list in advance to get the racing started as quickly as possible.
For those new to the event, the biggest rule you need to be aware of is make sure no liquid lubricant on the axles. This leaves a residue on the track and just makes a mess. However don’t fear there will be a table set up with extra parts if this or anything else should happen. If there is a problem of any sort, please see a leader. There hasn’t been a problem yet that I haven’t seen fixable, let’s make sure everyone races that wants too.
I hope everyone had a great time with their scouts making the cars and bring ear plugs it will be loud!! See http://www.pack12.net/pictures for pictures and video of last year’s race.
See you Friday.
Todd

Thank you to all of the scouts, parents and leaders that made our December meeting such a great time. Everyone loved the cookie-making contest, songs and gift exchange. I was extremely proud of all our Webelos that earned and received their Arrow of Light as well as Matt Burnside, Mike Schoonmaker, the Boy Scouts and Webelos parents that worked so hard to pull off a truly impressive ceremony. Click here for pictures from the meeting.
Next stop...Pinewood Derby!

Nearly 40 Scouts, Siblings and Parents made it out to Wings and Things this year for a fantastic time. We saw airplanes...we made airplanes...and we even rode in airplanes. From campfire songs to crafts, movies, kickball and a pancake breakfast the trip was unbelievable. Looking forward to going again next year! Click here to check out some pictures from the campout. As always, if you have additional pictures we could post, please send them along to billanderson.us@gmail.com.
On behalf of more Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts than I could count....Thanks to the many volunteers that gave up their weekend to make this event possible. And from Pack 12, a huge thanks to Todd Mitchell for putting this trip together! Seeya on the 11th! // Bill

Due to activities from Lutz Elementry and the fact our scouts have the WHOLE week of Thanksgiving off and many will be out of town, this month's pack meeting, previously scheduled for November 13th, has been canceled and we will all meet together after the break on December 11th. See you then. |
