Flag Help

Good morning, We have sold several flags and need to get them built and installed.  Currently we have one person (Ryan) building flags.  This is not sustainable as one person carries all of the knowledge.  If you are able to come help and want to learn how come after the flag retirement ceremony at the VFW this afternoon.  He will be at the church starting at 11:30.  He could really use your help! Yours in Scouting, Somer Bockover Cubmaster

Flag Service

Howdy Wonderful Wolves (soon bears), I miss seeing each of you. I hope during this time you have been able to enjoy a bit more down time with your family. As we move into summer our pack is looking at activities that we might can do, but first keeping the cubs safety in mind. Stay tune for end of year parade from leaders and hopefully a July event. Right now our pack needs our help with flags! This Wednesday we will be placing flags social distancing style and need families to sign up. You will get assigned a location. https://etacpack359.org/flagsignup/ Yours in Scouting, Kathy

Flag placement

Howdy Pack 359, I hope everyone is healthy and safe.  This Wednesday at 5:30 we need to put flags out for Memorial Day.  Wow, that came fast without school to help keep track of days! Social distancing practices need to be observed so we are changing things up a bit. Routes need to be solo scouts/families if at all possible so we need lots of people helping out. Click the link below to sign up. https://etacpack359.org/flagdelivery We’ll set up on the East side of the church (the side nobody parks on). Flags will be bundled for each route. We’ll use the parking spots as spacers and leave a parking space blank between each bundle. Yours in Scouting, Somer Bockover
