WELCOME BACK FOR 2009-2010 SCHOOL YEAR

I hope everybody had a wonderful and safe summer. It's an exciting year to be a member of Scouting, as this is the 100-YEAR Anniversary of Scouts.

A couple quick points......
The "preliminary" calendar is listed on your left. In it you will find all key dates of den, pack, and parent/leader meetings, along with "other activities". Here are a couple key points we would like to clarify for this year:

DEN MEETINGS - 7:00-8:00 at Christ Lutheran Church (641 89th Ave NE Blaine)
These meetings should be attended by all scouts in FULL uniform. Parents (with the exception of Tiger Cub parents) need not be present at these meetings.

PACK MEETINGS - 7:00-8:00 at Christ Lutheran Church (641 89th Ave NE Blaine)
These meetings should be attended by all scouts in FULL uniform. Parents ARE expected to attend these to help support the boys and to receive important handouts and updates on Pack upcoming events.

PARENT/LEADER MEETINGS - 7:00-8:00 at Be-Bop Sports Bar (1009 109th Ave NE)
All registered leaders must attend this. All other parents are welcomed, and encouraged to attend as many as you can. It is these meetings where we brainstorm any activities that we can do as a Pack. The more parental involvement we can have at these, the more things we can do as a Pack!!
