FLAG Pick up this week – No additional den meetings due to Family Camp

Hello BEARS! What a fun campfire – and the BEAR Scout’s skit was AWESOME!!  I am so glad everyone in our Den got a chance to practice and perform our “Cooking” skit and thanks to Cobin (Patrick Lupton’s grandson) for stepping up to “Skit” with us at the campfire!!  Hard to believe I won’t be seeing you until AFTER Thanksgiving (I get to pick up husband Tracy at the airport Tuesday as you all are picking up Flags!!

FYI – The Pack traditionally does NOT meet the week after family campouts (too much laundry, LOL) BUT all Den 4 Scouts should use this Tuesday during…

GREAT work on those FLAGS and I’ll see YOU on Tuesday at 6:30 at the WUMC!!!

WOW – GREAT job BEAR SCOUTS and families on our FLAG ROUTE – ALL FLAGS are up in time to honor our Veterans! I will see everyone at the church on Tuesday at our regular 6:30 time.  Scouts – If you have not shown me your soap carving, bring it if you have it done.  I will have wood for the wood carving item – those are not “due” for a while yet – might be a good project for Thanksgiving week. We will keep working on our BEAR Rank Achievements for now – along with SKITS AND SNAKES!  SCOUTS – see if you can find anything cool/interesting about local SNAKES – Copperhead, Coral Snake, Rattlesnake, King Snake, Rat Snake, Water Moccasin – snakes you…
