Due to the inclement weather, we are canceling the caroling and Pack meeting for tonight. We will attempt to reschedule. We will get back in touch with everyone very soon.

Christmas Caroling and Pack Meeting
Scouts and parents,
Our December Pack meeting is nearly upon us. We have several items of business to attend to.
On December 16th, this coming Tuesday, we will meet outside of the UM Church in Metropolis, at 5 pm. We will caravan to the different assisted living centers in Metropolis and sing Christmas carols to the residents. Part of being a good scout is giving good will. This is about the best way I know how to do that. It may be that there is simply no way that you can meet us at 5 pm at the church. Below is posted our itinerary, so that if you can't join us at 5pm, you can join us later. If you can't go caroling, please still plan on attending the Pack Meeting.
We will assemble at 5 pm. We will drive first to Southgate, 900 East 9th Street. Then,at approximately 5:30, we will go to MNRC, at 2299 Metropolis Street. At approximately 6 pm, we will go to Joe Ogle's house, at #8 Hilanoa. We have some gifts to give him in honor of his service to our cub scout Pack. At approximately 6:30 pm, we will go to Krypton House, at 502 West 8th Street. Lastly, everyone will come back up to the UM Church for our Pack meeting at 7 pm.
As scouts and parents are seated, we will serve hot cocoa and cookies, award any advancements, and then hand out prizes for popcorn sales. If your scout earned a prize but you have not yet settled up popcorn sales, we will award the prize after the sale is settled. We will go over our calendar for the first part of next year.
I look forward to seeing all of you this Tuesday. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

The Christmas Parade
Building The Float....
The Parade...
Next, we will have our annual Christmas Caroling on December 16th. We will meet at 5 pm at the parking lot of the UM Church. We will caravan to different assisted living centers, and will make a special stop at the house of Joe Ogle. We expect to have scouts back at the church at approximately 6:30 pm, at which time we will have cookies and hot chocolate, complete our Pack Meeting, and give out our popcorn prizes. Prizes will not be awarded if you have not settled up your popcorn orders, however, so please, if you have outstanding popcorn orders, get them settled up right away. Please take your money up to Lisa Gower at Creations the Florist.
Also, any boys who still need to pick up their pinewood cars can do so at this meeting. This will be our last meeting this year. Leaders will begin meetings again in January.
Thank you, parents, scouts, and leaders, for making the first half of this year one of the best for Pack 101 yet!

Christmas Parade
First off, thank you to EVERYONE who helped build the float. I think the boys enjoyed themselves, and made short work of a really nice float. Thank you parents and leaders, for being there.
This Saturday, December 6th, is the Metropolis Christmas Parade. We will meet at 3rd and Metropolis Street, by Washington Park, at approximately 12:30. Scouts need to be in uniform, but also dressed appropriately for the weather. It will be cold.
Scouts can throw candy, but must bring their own sealed candy if they choose to do so.
The younger scouts shall ride on the float, and the older scouts will walk and carry our banner.
The Parade will end at 9th and Market, over by the Save A Lot. Please meet us over there after the parade, and pick up your scout from there.
As a reminder, if you haven't settled up popcorn sales, please do so NOW. You should take your money for popcorn sales to Lisa Gower at Creations the Florist during regular business hours.
If your scout does not have his pinewood derby car, (they were handed out at the November Pack Meeting, while we settled up popcorn sales), please see your den leader to get your car. Parents, if you are going to participate in the open class race, or if you need to buy an additional car, we will supply additional cars for $5 each.
Our next event will be Christmas Caroling, Pack Meeting, and popcorn prize delivery, on December 16th. We will meet at the church and caravan to each assisted living center in town. I'll post an itinerary in the next few days.
