Welcome Back Pack 29!!
Please plan to attend our August Pack Meeting at Arndt Church (outside) on Sunday August 23rd beginning at 6:00PM. Please dress in class A uniform.
Our scouts earned LOTS of advancements over the summer – from Forks Day Camp, Lopatcong Day Camp, and Akelaland, campers had a fun-filled, active scout camp schedule. We’ll be handing out all of the award along with our “special” camp awards on Sunday. Please bring your own chairs for outside seating.
Also, we are going to kickoff our popcorn fundraiser. Did you know that almost 60% of the Pack’s budget is funded by popcorn sales? It’s our only fundraiser during the year and funds all of the great activities your scout enjoys. We hope to have every family participate this year.
*********
Ever wonder how you can be more involved in helping out your pack? Each family is asked to signup for one volunteer slot for each scout they have. We need help with the following positions:
High Priority
Advancement Chair (1) – manage all of the rank advancements, beads, belt loops, Webelos pins, etc. that your scouts earn. Once per month, just before the pack meeting, you would ask the den leaders to submit to you the list of what advancements they need, take the list to the council store on Airport Road in Allentown, and pick-up the advancements. We have a store account so no payment needs to be made. For the pack meeting, the advancements are bagged for each scout and arranged by den so each den has them to hand out. Please consider helping out for a year or so.
Popcorn Assistant (1) – help setup show and sells, pickup and distribute popcorn, and track all orders.
September Pack Meeting (1 of 2) – plan and setup our September pack meeting activities.
Blue and Gold (3 of 5) – plan and setup our Blue and Gold dinner in February.
Others
LV Phantoms game (1) – coordinate with Phantoms personnel on specific date, collect money, order and distribute tickets.
March Pack Meeting (1 of 2) – plan and setup our March pack meeting activities.
April Pack Meeting (2 of 2) – plan and setup our April pack meeting activities.
Pack Graduation (2 of 4) – plan and setup our Pack Graduation in actives at our June pack meeting.
