Webelos Den Weekly Update

Dear Webelos Den Parents:

We will meet at Davis School from 6:30 - 7:30 on Tuesday.

This will be our last den meeting of the school year, so we will tie up our spring projects.

Reminder that our next pack meeting will take place at LeRoy Oaks on May 27. Please see the flier that went out at the last pack meeting for confirmation. If anyone needs a rocket kit to assemble and launch at the pack meeting, please let me know so that I can bring one for you to the den meeting this week.

My schedule tells me that the Wahab family will be present for meeting help, and that the Kampen family will provide the treats for this week.

We have a few pack events scheduled over the summer, so please mark your calendar and keep your eyes open for email messages alerting you to the activities. The pack calendar is available at this link.

I will also try to schedule one activity each month just for the webelos den...just to keep our scouting muscles in good shape.

As we move into the final months as cub scouts, we will be working to complete the arrow of light award. Part of this requires that cub scouts learn and recite (from memory) the Boy Scout Oath and Scout Law. That information is located in your son's Webelos Handbook. While we will practice these each week, please encourage your son to spend some time this summer practicing it so that we can confirm what he learned when we start up with weekly meetings in the fall.

If you are thinking about adding scout pants/shorts to your son's webelos uniform (which are the same as for a boy scout uniform), there are some changes being made, so put that purchase on hold for the time being. The new look is here.

One more pitch for webelos resident camp. You can sign up here.

My thanks for all who were able to attend the camp out over the weekend--I think it was fun and successful, and the rain was kept at bay as much as possible.


Best regards,

Ken
