Start your engines!

20090321_9039 The news is very exciting; but the boxes came while we were preparing for our Spring Campout, so they did not get the fanfare they deserved.  That’s right! Our brand new Pinewood Derby track has arrived!  I now have boxes of parts, that if assembled properly, should be our shinny 42ft long aluminum track!

To celebrate our new track (and to make sure we know how to put it together) we will be assembling and testing it out this Thursday, June 11th at Nash.  Since the Wolf den won the penny challenge, they will get to try out the track first!  Track testing will begin at 7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria.  Bring your cars to test out the track or just come to see our new track!  There will not be any official competitive racing, so there will be no need to spend a lot of time preparing the cars.  Just come and have some fun.

Pack News -- May 2009

Hello Pack Family!

Here is your May Pack Newsletter. Can you believe it's already May and our Scouts will be "graduating" at the end of the month? I sure can't. It's been a great Scout year and we have a lot to celebrate! Check out what we have planned on the 19th - A Pack Pizza & Potluck Party (with games). We hope everyone will participate and bring a dish.

Please check out your newsletter and share it with your Scout. I hope you find the information useful.

For Our Kids,
Michelle

Come walk with us!

Every step counts...

Pack 567 believes in Giving Back and on May 2nd, Pack 567 will again Walk for Babies! This is our second year walking, won't you join us?

We will be walking 4 miles at the Racine Zoo. Not only will these 4 miles count as hiking club miles but you'll also be helping the March of Dimes help babies (getting some exercise and helping babies what more can you ask for?).

Anyone can walk with us. Last year we not only had moms and dads, but grandparents and kids too. Invite your family and friends to join our team, everyone is welcome.

If you aren't able to walk with our team, please consider donating and supporting us as we "March for Babies". In these difficult economic times, your generosity means more than ever and your dollar stretches further than ever.

Check out our team page, you can join or donate right there!

If you have ANY questions, please stop by the information table or contact me, our team captain.


One day...
all babies will be born healthy. We need to walk to get there.

Thank you!

Lots of Blue, Lots of Gold

Our annual Blue and Gold Banquet was a huge success! We had great food, great company and of course, lots of cake!

Along with the usual guests, this year we also had some special guests including Alderman Bogdala, Mayor Bosman, and Senator Wirch.

The boys thought it was really cool that the Mayor was at their Blue and Gold. I thought it was really nice the Senator, the Mayor, and the Alderman took the time to attend our little Cub Scout banquet.

The boys did a great job with their skits and we had to say goodbye to some of our boys as they crossed over to Boy Scouts. Now we can focus our attention to the boy's favorite event of the year: The Pinewood Derby.

Suggestions are welcome!

We are always trying to make a better program for our kids. We've added a new Suggestions area if you would like to help out. Please make your own suggestions or vote on other people's suggestions to make our program even better.
