Newsletter : February, 2006
Greetings all:
As we continue our journey into 2006, we are quickly approaching our annual Blue & Gold banquet. Please help your leaders by updating ScoutTrack and working with your Scout to accomplish his achievement work. Our goal is 100% crossover. We want 100% of our Scouts to receive their rank on or before Blue & Gold.
REPORT TO STATE
Feb. 4th(this Saturday) is the annual Report to State Parade for all the Scout units in Texas. Packs, Troops and Crews from around our great state will parade up Congress to the State Capital. We hope all our Scouts will attend.
The parade starts at 9:30 but units must be formed up well before hand. Scouts should arrive no later than 8:45 - 9:00. Leaders will already be on hand with the trailer on the bridge. Parking is usually best in the Austin American Statesman parking lot. Then, proceed to the bridge to locate the trailer. It'll be easy to find ;)
PACK MEETING
Feb. 7th is our February pack meeting. We will be celebrating a very important birthday. Come and enjoy.
Please have new achievements recorded in ScoutTrack by Sunday evening so they can be awarded at the meeting.
PINEWOOD DERBY
What an amazing event. Thanks very much to the many, many hands which all pulled this event off. This is one of the big events for our pack each year. It went very well and that's a testament to the many contributors!
The race statistics are posted online!
FLAG PATROL
We need Flag Patrol members for February. If your son is available for either the morning or afternoon patrol, please email the cubmaster.
USS LEXINGTON
If you are attending the USS Lexington on Feb. 18th-19th, you might consider car pooling with others. If you would like to car pool, please email the Cubmaster. Even if you'd like to take your own vehicle, consider caravanning with the rest. The 'train' leaves St. Theresa at 8:30 on the 18th. A future email will follow with more details.
SPRING CAMPOUT
PLEASE NOTE: The Spring campout was moved from May 5th - 7th to April 7th - 9th, due to a scheduling conflict with First Communion. The campout will still be at Wolf Mountain Ranch.
