The parade is scheduled on the Saturday 3rd. The parade starts promptly at 10am. Line up starts about 9. Lutz Lake Road will be closed prior to and during the parade. Last year there was parking at the county park, but there has since been an expansion so I do not know how that parking will be effected. From what I remember it does get busy, so keep that in mind. The parade will end down by the fire station and if like last year we will be down one of the adjacent streets. The floats have to stay parked until the event is over, so your child can be picked up at the float after we cross the judges area. We will have coolers of water and will encourage all to drink as it gets really hot out there. We ask everyone bring a bag or 2 of candy or something to be tossed (ie beads). Last year we had problems with the excited children pelting the watchers so we will have to go over the soft underhand toss with all of them!! Please try to select items that don’t have sticks ie dum dum pops. Give the large group size, the Webelos will be walking, Bears will be riding in the truck bed, and the smaller wolves and Tigers will be riding in the trailer. Parents are welcome to walk along with us, however we will need leaders at a minimum and probably a few other parents to walk along the float as safety watchers/helpers. Last year siblings rode along with the scouts, yes girls too, and would like to invite them along again should they wish to participate. It was a great event last year and expect this year to be even better. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Todd Cub Master Todd Mitchell, P.E.

Don't forget the Rocket Derby at 7:00pm this Friday! Have your rockets ready for check-in when you arrive. If you need to make some last minute tweaks, we'll have a table set aside for making adjustments. Also, remember that Scouts are allowed to wear their uniforms to school on Friday. See you there!

If you know of a kindergartner that is interested in joining our great Pack, please let them know we are having our first Tiger roundup on April 21st, 2010. So tell them to come see us that Wednesday night at the Lutz School cafeteria at 6:30 pm to ask questions, learn about the free programs being offered during the summer, participate in the Lutz 4th of July parade, and most importantly just be cool with the other scouts. Our current Tiger leader along with the Cub Master will be there with the gulf Ridge Council to answer any questions and welcome them to our group. |

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.
Land O’ Lakes Community Center 5401 Land O’ Lakes Blvd Land O’ Lakes, FL 34369 Click for map directions
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.
