Pack Meeting

Yes, we are having a meeting this week – and it’s a Pack Meeting. We have lots of awards and beads to hand out, so we hope to see you all at 7pm!

Indian Trail Christmas Parade

The parade committee is meeting @ 2:00pm at the church this Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) to decorate the float if anyone is free and would like to come and help.

The Indian Trail Christmas Parade will be held on Sunday November 30^th. Organizers need to arrive at the parade by 1:00 to line up and complete last minute decorations. Participants need to arrive in full uniform no later than 1:45pm. Parade will start promptly @ 2:00pm. We will not know our exact position until we arrive – so look for us in the line when you get there. A sign up sheet will be available this week for those scouts and parents who will be able to attend.

Monkey Joes

Our next Pack outing will a trip to Monkey Joes on Saturday December 6^th. Monkey Joes is all about kids having fun, jumping, sliding and playing in the best indoor playground in town. We have a time slot reserved from 9am-noon. They do not open to the public until 10am, so we will have the place to ourselves for the first hour! Scouts will be paid for by the Pack and they will also receive 1 slice of pizza and a drink. Parents are admitted free of charge – no concessions. If you have siblings who would like to attend their fee will be $8.70 (which includes tax) and will also include the pizza and drink. (Regular admission without concessions on the weekends is $9.99/child). We will be posting a sign up sheet for this event as well.
