Neighborhood Independence Day Parade on Saturday, July 3rd

Our Cub Scouts again have the opportunity to participate in the Reservation/JJP Independence Day Parade.
  • Parade staging will take place in the north JJ Pearce parking lot by the tennis courts on Senior Way beginning at 10am.  Mike Wagnon is in charge of staging and will have several helpers to get everybody in the right order. 
  • Please plan to arrive at 10 with your Cub Scout wearing his Pack 893 t-shirt (or uniform shirt) and plenty of sunscreen.  The boys may ride their bike, scooter, or skateboard... especially if they have been decorated in celebration of the holiday (ribbons, streamers, balloons, etc).

4th of July Flag distribution on Thursday, July 1st, 7:30pm at Mohawk

Pack 893 has agreed to a new service project for the JJP Homeowners Association.  They have asked our Cub Scouts to distribute mini American Flags to each home in the HOA.  We will meet at Mohawk on Thursday, July 1st at 7:30 pm to assign areas and hand-out the flags.

 

If your schedule won't allow Thursday night participation, please contact Steve Sweeney beforehand, as we can work around individual availability to get your boys mobilized for this project. 

Adult Leader Workshop Set for June 26th

Every Scout deserves a trained leader.  And while we leaders spend most of our time trying to get the boys to work together... guess what?  Now it is our turn to lead by example. 

The Adult leader workshop will provide structure around planning our Cub Scout Program for the coming year and helping to smooth the transition for our leaders by sharing knowledge and materials.

For those of you attending Twilight Camp, we are going to have a workshop at our house this Tuesday (6/1) from 6:30-7:30. We will have a brief informational session for the parents, and the kids will be able to decorate their buckets and make "swaps". I will the handout t-shirts.
 

Twilight Camp is quickly approaching!

The school year ends in 2 weeks!  Are you ready for summer? If you want to start summer off right, at least in your son's eyes, it's not too late to sign up for Twilight Camp!
