Newsletter for the Week of January 1, 2018

Post date: Jan 05, 2018 2:13:15 AM

Hello, everyone, 

Happy New Year and welcome back from the holiday break!!  

Next week we are having a "Derby Workshop" for anyone that needs or wants the help. It will be on Thursday, January 11, 2018, at Brian Hughes's garage and we will be there starting at 6:30 PM and stay for more or less an hour.  I believe Mr. Hughes is willing to use his band saw to cut out the rough shapes of everyone's cars.  I ask that each scout have the shape stenciled on the car prior to this night. Please check the calendar for more information. This is not a mandatory meeting and if you have already cut out your car or your den is doing their own "Derby Workshop" please do not feel obligated to attend. 

Be sure to check the website this weekend as I am working on a Pinewood Derby page to post all the car guidelines and schedule for our race.  Our race will be on Saturday, February 3, 2018.  We will need a few volunteers to help set up the track and concessions stand on Friday, February 2, 2018. If you are interested in helping, let your Den Leader or I know. We will have a sign-up list for items needed for the concession stand at the next Pack Meeting, Friday, January 19, 2018. 

If you know of an individual or business that might want to donate an auction basket or food for our Derby concession stand please reach out to them. All donations are greatly appreciated. We will need 2-3 Auction baskets per Den at a minimum. 

All fundraising money and recharter fees will be due at the Pack Meeting on Friday, January 19, 2018. We Should have invoice sheets for everyone that owes on that night. Standard recharter fee, without boys life Magazine, is $33 for the year. We will also start to collect our yearly pack dues, the dues for the rest of this year are $75. 

Have a great weekend, 

Will Zoeller
