Night at the Knights

This Friday, June 6th is our Night at the Knights game (and sleepover for those who registered for this option).  We will all be meeting in parking lot 6, and are asking the leaders to be there between 6:00-6:15pm and all parents and scouts by 6:30pm.  This will allow us all enough time to collect money, distribute tickets and enter the stadium before the game starts at 7pm.  Everyone should also wear their yellow Pack t-shirts so we can be a united and visible group.  If you know you cannot make it by 6:30pm, please email in response to this newsletter or to Anthony at cubmaster@pack97scouts.com and we will make arrangements to leave tickets at the will call. 

Once the game is over, they will clear the stadium and those scouts and families who pre-registered for camping will be allowed to go and get your equipment, re-enter the stadium and walk down the hill on the right field line.  Please be sure that no-one wears any spiked shoes.   

For those inquiring about young children and tickets; they do allow children 2 and under to enter free.  


Rays Splash Planet

Our next upcoming event will be held at Rays Splash Planet on Sunday, June 22nd. For this event we will be meeting at 12:45 pm and we have the slotted time of 1-3pm for the day. The cost to attend this event is $6.00 per child, parents are free!  We need to submit an estimated group count to them within the next few weeks.  We will have a sign up sheet with us at the Knights Game, or please email Anthony at cubmaster@pack97scouts.com.  Below are the rules and swimsuit requirements.

Volunteers Needed!

 

Cub Scout Day Camp:    June 9th-13th They are looking for volunteers.  Can you give a day or a maybe even a week of your time to help with this camp?  There is a daycare "camp" for the younger children of volunteers.  Talk to Mary Stewart or Kathy Sharman for more information. This is a great inexpensive summer camp program that will get your scout a head start on next years requirements and he will have a great time doing it.
