Extra Wreaths

Friday, November 20th, 2009


Hi Pack 497!

1. Extra Wreaths. We have some extra wreaths, since we have to order in full boxes. We REALLY need to sell them. Any money from these is straight profit to the pack.

If you want any of these (or can sell them to a neighbor), please contact Ann Rorem directly at annrorem {at} gmail(.)com or 952-937-3500. You can pick them up from her (and pay for them at pick-up). Let’s do this as soon as possible, and make sure to get your other wreaths and popcorn delivered! Thanks!
4 25″ classic $16
1 36″ classic $27
1 48″ classic $42
3 25″ victorian $22
2 25″ wintergreen $22
2 36″ wintergreen $32
5 classic spray $16
1 victorian spray $20
4 living tree $25
1 25′ garland $25
2. Roster. A current pack roster is attached.

3. Pinewood Derby. Our theme for car decorating is “Winter Olympics.” Be creative! There will also a category for “best cars not in theme.” I’m going to work on arranging a car-cutting date/time at the EP Senior Center and will let you know. Also, we need another volunteer for the Pinewood Derby. If that’s you, please let Kelly Zarling or Joel Nichols know!

4. Bell-ringing. Last but not least, it’s bell-ringing time on Saturday, Dec. 19. See the note from Beth Witherspoon (and attached sign-up sheet) and let Beth know when you can ring. (We really need help in the afternoon and over the noon hour.)

“It’s a Pack 497 tradition to ring bells for the Salvation Army each December. This year we’ll be ringing in front of one door at Rainbow Foods in Eden Prairie. Several of you signed up last night at the pack meeting to ring for a shift or two. Thanks!

If you haven’t yet, please check your calendars, look at the attached sign-up sheet for timing, and e-mail Beth Witherspoon (bspoon01 {at} aol(.)com) by the end of the week if you’re able to volunteer for a shift.
Thanks so much!”
