Build Day and Recharter

Good Afternoon Pack! Recharter – All of our returning scouts need to recharter. We have options for payment plans as well. This does not apply to you if you are a new scout for the 2023-2024 school year. https://etacpack359.org/recharter/. This is a critical step in keeping your scout’s achievements and rank advancements current. Without rechartering, National will remove your scout’s records from our account. Pinewood Derby Build Day – This Saturday, Jan 27th (8a-12p). We’ll have the tools necessary to leave with nearly a finished car. Please volunteer to help with Build Day! We try to provide this excellent service, but without help from a few volunteers, we can’t safely host Build Day. Please use the button on https://etacpack359.org/pinewood to sign up for a time and activity. There are…

Pinewood Derby Signups – Volunteers URGENTLY NEEDED for Build Day

Essentially, all you would have to do after build day is paint. This is a great opportunity for families who…
