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.
