Cub Scout Pack 919 in Eden Prairie

1. Monthly meeting. Our monthly leader’s meeting is this Friday night, October 2, at 7:00. We’ll meet at Rick and Karol Joos’ house, at 17200 Candlewood Drive. (Thanks, Rick and Karol!)
These meetings are just to check in together and make sure our dens and pack are running smoothly — and to look ahead to the upcoming events for the next 1-2 months to make sure our planning is adequate. And we usually have fun together, too! I won’t email everyone about this every time (since they’re on the pack calendar), but any parent is always welcome to come. And leaders, as always, it’s always important to have someone from each den there if possible. (Den leaders — can you let me know if you won’t be there? Thanks!)

2. Apple Orchard Trip. This Sunday we’ll meet as a pack to Minnesota Harvest Orchard in Jordan at 2:00. Please let Beth Witherspoon ( bspoon01 {at} aol(.)com or 612-867-0342) know if you’ll join us! Wear your light blue Pack 497 t-shirts (Class B uniform)!

3. Mad Science Night. October 12 is our “Join Scouting Night.” We’re in need of new recruits, esp. 1st graders, so if you know some boys that would like scouting bring them along. Come one come all to Mad Science; all ages are welcome!

Great to see so many of you last night. Hope all’s well.

MN Harvest invitationOur first pack meeting of the year is next Monday night, Sept. 28, at 7:00 at Cedar Ridge. We’ll have a gathering activity at 6:45. We have LOTS going on (songs, fundraiser kick-off, some new scout friends, etc.!), so be sure to make it. Parents: We need you there, too!

We have a pack trip to the Minnesota Harvest Apple Orchard (Jordan, MN) on the afternoon of Sunday, October 4 at 2:00. A flyer is attached. Contact Beth Witherspoon for more information at bspoon01 {at} aol(.)com (Thanks, Beth!).
