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…

Webelos, This Sunday at 3:00 we will meet in the Whitehouse UMC parking lot where the bear carnival was and go over our important fundraiser – FLAGS. I will go over the process and assign new scouts to our routes. My plan is to group new families with returning families to help with the process. You can look at the map of all our placements and also see our specific routes. https://etacpack359.org/routes/ Our current scouts that have done the 3 routes are assigned below. They will be the lead and then we will add new scouts to help. The more we have show up the faster this goes. You must wear your Class A uniform. B1 – Mark B2 – Jack B3 – Kenzie Yours…

All families planning to attend need to register at https://etacpack359.org/familycamp/ so we need to get a headcount and plan accordingly. Fall Family camp is a great way to relax and enjoy getting to know other families in the Pack. If you haven’t been, Camp Pirtle is nestled in a Pine Forest, right on the Eastern point of Lake Murvaul. If you and your scout love to fish, bring your poles and bait! (Scouts MUST be supervised lakeside) Many families may not be able to come out Friday night and will come out early Saturday morning to set up camp. Even if your schedule will not allow camping, feel free to come out for the day and enjoy the outdoors with us. If cooking outdoors isn’t your thing,…

Bring your pocket knives tonight! See you at 6:30 at WUMC.
