New pack t-shirts available at Tuesday night’s pack meeting

Pack-564-T-shirt-design-conceptOur new pack t-shirts are done and will be available at Tuesday night’s pack meeting!

If you pre-ordered a shirt and paid for it, all you’ll need to do is pick yours up. If you pre-ordered but did not pay, or have not yet ordered one, you will need to bring cash or check to the pack meeting. Shirts are $10 each. Limited quantities of each size are available for purchase if you did not pre-order. New scouts and new leaders will receive one shirt at no cost.

These shirts replace the red Class B t-shirts and should be worn under the Class A uniform and anytime the den or pack leader calls for Class B uniforms.

Spring trip: Save the date!

ussyorktownWe expect to begin taking registrations soon for our Spring Trip Feb. 27-28 to the Patriots Point and the USS Yorktown. Please mark these dates on your calendar.

More details about the trip and a registration form will be made available as soon as possible on the event page.

A few things to think about as you mull your travel plans:

  • Overnight camping is $75 per person, with an extra fee for additional programs
  • A parent must accompany each child; berths are separated by gender
  • Children under the age of 6 are not allowed to spend the night aboard ship. You will need to make alternative arrangements to overnight
  • Day passes will be available for $10
  • You should plan on being at the dock before 9 a.m. for boarding. Patriot’s Point wants our entire group on hand before we board.

Work day canceled

Due to expected rain and conditions at DeShong Park, Gwinnett County parks staff have requested we postpone our scheduled work day tomorrow.

Because of our busy pack schedule, holiday considerations and park needs, the only current viable options to reschedule are Oct. 31 and Dec. 12.

Alternatively, I can work on scheduling a spring work day. The caveat with this is that it may have to be scheduled too late to accommodate Arrow of Light scouts.

Please express your preference below. I’ll do my best to get it set up.

Thanks!
