Online voting is now closed. If you haven’t voted yet, please do so at the Pinewood Derby this afternoon!

Pack 497 — The calendar has turned to December and all your holiday greenery (and extra popcorn) should have been delivered. If not, please do that just as soon as possible.

Also,
1. We still have a handful of extra wreaths, living trees, etc. If you can help sell these for the pack (even to yourselves at discounted rates!) please contact Ann Rorem asap. annrorem {at} gmail(.)com

2. Attached is a sign-up for bell-ringing. We still lack 6 spots (and can accommodate more than that if needed). If you haven’t signed up please email Beth Witherspoon bspoon01 {at} aol(.)com or we’ll fix it at the Dec. 14 pack meeting.

3. Finally, the Pinewood Derby is coming up on Sunday, January 24 at 1:00. We’ll send more info to the boys about it, but our theme is “Winter Olympics.” We’ll have prizes for best cars in theme and best cars not in theme. We’ll also have a car-cutting day at the EP Senior Center if you’re interested. It looks like this will likely be the morning of Sat., Jan. 9 (and possible Jan. 16). I’ll let you know when I get confirmation about it.

Have a great day!

(1) Wreath and popcorn pick up. Please pick up your wreaths and extra popcorn at Ann Rorem’s house, 15546 Village Woods Drive. Times are: Wednesday 4-6, Thursday 6-9, and Friday 4-7.

(2) Last night you should have received an envelope with a little cash in it for your scout. This is wreath sales money for the scout, calculated at 5% of each scout’s total sales of wreaths. (This was the “prize” for wreath-sales, as there was no separate prize structure for that.) Please tell the scouts that we appreciate their hard work in selling, and expect them to use this little cash wisely — for Christmas presents for others, for scouting or camping gear for themselves, for service projects for others, or something else you come up with for them. Prizes for popcorn sales will be handout out separately, likely at the December pack meeting.

(3) Pinewood Derby cars were available last night. Den leaders should have them if you didn’t get one. Parents and siblings, if you want to race you’ll have a chance… You can buy your own kit, or get one from the pack for $5.00. More info before too long about the Derby.

(4) All are welcome to a leaders meeting this Thursday night, Nov. 19, at Ann Rorem’s house (15546 Village Woods Drive) at 7:00. We’ll be done about 8:00 or very shortly after it, I promise.

Thanks for a fun night. Tell your scout that Bruce and I enjoyed the pies in the face!
