Directions on how to make an Egg Parachute:
Remember — your egg will be dropped from the top of an Eden Prairie Fire Truck’s ladder! Build a contraption that will protect your egg from the fall! General rules are no bigger than one cubic foot, no heavier than a pound, egg must be raw and no dangerous or breakable (other than the egg) items involved. A great idea for a parachute is a plastic bag. Any eggs that survive will get to put into our special slingshot!

The blue and gold banquet is coming soon (Feb 6th.) and the planning committee is asking for some help on some items.

Since the Blue and Gold Banquet is a celebration for all cub scouts, the decorations will take on a cub scout feel. We need any props you have that would help make our celebration look cool. Suggestions on things like Camping or hiking Gear, sporting items, science, Pinewood Derby. Dig deep into your imagination and help us out. Please bring items that are sturdy and not extremely expensive or sentimental! The decoration committee would appreciate it if you could bring your items to either the next pack meeting next Monday or at the pinewood derby. Contacts are Melissa Aslin or m.aslin {at} comcast(.)net or Lynne Roubal lroubal {at} comcast(.)net.
In addition to these items we also want magazines you have that depict boyscout/cub scout activities. Magazines such as Boys life, Scouting Magazine, National Geographic, Hiking or Camping, or even cub scout catalogs you get in the mail. We will be destroying these mags, so do not steal your sons boys life if he is a collector of them like my child is!

Thank you so much for your help,

Renee Stranger
