Last Call For Webelos Camp

Good Morning Arrows and Webelos! (Yes we are now Arrow of Light Scouts and Webelos) Webelos Camp is upon us! We arrive at Camp Pirtle on Sunday, June 27th, and will return on Thursday, July 1st. This camp is intended to be an introduction to long-term camping such as Scouts BSA Summer Camp like the Troops do. The cost is $175, however, the Pack is paying $100 for each scout, so only $75 for your scout. If attending, Every Scout needs the Part C Health Form Completed. I have attached both the Health Forms and the Itinerary for the week for your review. Please let me know as soon as possible if your scout is planning to attend (903) 530-9378.

Den 4 FLAG Service Project – Flags need to be out by Wednesday in preparation for Memorial Day

Hi Den 4! Some of you might have already seen the Flag Instructions for this week – the rain has really created issues in delivering the flags for Memorial Day, so ALL Dens are helping out by covering assigned routes. We have 33 flags to put out for Den 4, distributed into about 5 areas around the Canyon Springs, Cumberland Estates, Windridge Estates, Cambridge Village, and Oscar-Burkett neighborhoods.  I have attached our Den 4 spreadsheet “list” and a map that shows how the flags are distributed. The flags need to be delivered by at least one scout in uniform + adult helper.  If you and your Scout want to participate, please TEXT me at 903-574-3787 and let me know what area you could take, and…

Flags

Sorry for the late notice, but I just received our route today. We will be putting out flags Sunday and Monday. We will split them up so each scout can help. We have the most flags, so we will be needing everyone to pitch in! Please text me the day you are available to help! 903-570-7011 list attached of our route thank you for helping! https://etacpack359.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Den-5-Flag-Route.pdf

As we discussed last week, NO MEETING tonight – be working on your Chore Chart and “PAWS of SKILL”

Hello Wild Wolves – I’m going to have to get used to calling you BEARS soon!! As we discussed last week, we are NOT MEETING tonight.  There are too many events, rain-outs, testing, and end-of-year general craziness going on this week! Everyone should be working on your chore chart (Except Gregory, I’m going to deliver yours today) to complete the Germs Alive elective.  We had a lot of fun and hopefully the Scouts learned a little bit…  ALSO – hoping everyone is done with theit PAWS OF SKILL Elective – I’m including the requirements again just in case you need to refresh on what your Scout should be working on.  With so many sports-oriented activities and “Field Days” it should be pretty easy to get…

Quick Meeting Tonight

Hey Webelos!! Long time, no chat, right?? Now that Baseball, Soccer, and STARR are all winding down (oh, and Taxes too!) I’d like to have a quick get-together and review what our Summer Plans are as well as coordinate how our den will tackle our Flag Delivery Routes. No Uniforms required this evening. Scouts will be working on Knots while we work through some of the upcoming events. Parents are greatly encouraged to stick around for this one. See everyone tonight! Jason
