I have some very exciting news to report: Jonathon Hodges, one of our scouts, WON the drawing for the electric scooter! Congratulations, Jonathon! Also, earlier this fall, Tristan Odom won $50 in scout bucks! The drawing for the Nintendo Wii will happen next week. Let's hope another scout from Pack 101 is lucky enough to win it.
Next Thursday, December 13th, we will be gathering at the church at 5 pm to begin Christmas Caroling. At approximately 7 pm, we will make our way back to the church for the December Pack Meeting.
At the Pack Meeting, we will warm back up with hot cocoa and cookies, give out advancements, and hand out prizes for those scouts who have completed their popcorn sales.
A special message to you if you have not yet turned in your popcorn money: It is vitally important that you turn in your popcorn sales to me ASAP! You can stop by my house at 113 Lindsey Avenue after 6 pm. Also, some boys still owe dues from last year. Popcorn sales and back dues must be paid before the Pack Meeting on the 13th.
I don't want to harp about it, but for all the right reasons, if popcorn money is still owed, you should pay it. This fundraiser teaches responsibility, honesty, and trust, three of the biggest and best lessons we try to instill in cub scouts. The Cub Scouts in Metropolis are well-respected because we meet our obligations.
I look forward to Christmas Caroling and the next Pack Meeting.
Roger
