Christmas Carolling and Pack Meeting..

Scouts, this Tuesday, December 15th, we are going to go Christmas Carolling and then have our pack meeting. We will begin by meeeting up at the UM Church parking lot at 5 pm. We will carpool and caravan, scouts and parents, from one assisted living center to the next, until about 7 pm. Then we will all convene back at the church for cookies, hot cocoa, advancements, and GIVING OUT THE POPCORN PRIZES. Two of our scouts won prizes in the Council-wide give-aways.

ITINERARY:
5 pm: Meet at the Church, get music books for carolling from Leslie Bates. Carpool and caravan to these assisted living centers:

Southgate
MNRC
Twin Oaks
Krypton House

Leslie will have the exact order and a sheet with the addresses for each place.

7pm: Reconvene at the church basement for our Pack meeting. We will have hot cocoa and cookies, advancements, popcorn prizes, checks for top sellers, and two special prizes for boys who won items from the Council-wide drawings.

This will be the last event we have until January. In January, we will have our edible snowman contest and a little thing we do called the Pinewood Derby!

The Christmas Parade

First, I want to thank everyone who participated. We had a great turn out. Scouts, our float took 3rd place in the float judging! That is awesome! This is the first time we ever even placed in the judging. The judges later told us that it was the enthusiasm, smiles, waves, and wishes of "Merry Christmas" that came from the boys that made the difference for them. So CONGRATULATIONS EVERYBODY!

Here are some photos from the parade:
