Spaghetti Bridge – Engineering Pin

Each Scout owes .75 cents for the spaghetti and the hot glue. I will have a parent collect the money and mark it with the attendance sheet. I have a total of four hot glue guns for the project, at least two more for a total of six would be ideal. If you have one/some please bring to the meeting. Boys will be given their advancement awards at the end of the meeting along with a update about the makeup date for the hiking requirement. Thanks for all that you do, Den5 leader Bob Prince

Scout Sunday, 2/11/18

Hello, Pack 359 Family! Scout Sunday is a recognized national BSA day where we show our appreciation for our charter organization by attending Sunday church service. I know the calendar says Feb. 4, but this is NOT true for us!!! Our chartered organization, Whitehouse United Methodist Men, prefers to have Scout Sunday on the 2nd Sunday of February. So, with that being said, Scout Sunday for us will be Sunday, February 11. The Whitehouse UMC service starts at 9:30 am. Uniform is Field (Class A). Please come out Sunday, February 11, to show your support and appreciation to the organization that allows us to use their facilities. Let’s have a strong showing on February 11!!!! Yours in Scouting, D. Jason Phillips Cubmaster
