Those of you going to astronomy night should join us as soon as you are able -- you won't want to miss it!

Hello Pack 618,

Reminder that our regular pack meeting is THURSDAY, December 17 at Copper Canyon (7 pm). Our Pack Volunteer Committee has booked a very special activity that the boys will NOT want to miss!  (HINT:  it involves Legos.)  Please have all boys in full class A uniform!

We will once again be collecting toys, games or animals to donate to those in need.  Donated items must be brand new, please do not bring used items.

I realize that Thursday is also Copper Canyon's rescheduled astronomy night for 4th and 5th graders.  I am hopeful that our Copper Canyon Webelos will still be able to join the meeting as soon as possible after 7 pm.  Again, you don't want to miss this one!

See you all there!

Reminder that our pack is caroling TONIGHT at the Brookdale home on the northwest corner of 64th Street and Greenway.  Please assemble in front of the home by 6:15 pm.  Cub families should bring a plate of cookies/brownies/sweets of some sort, and Webelos families should bring flowers to give to the residents.  

Special thanks to the Kite family and to Andy LaRousch for organizing this great event!

PS --> remember that our regular pack meeting is NEXT THURSDAY, December 17 at Copper Canyon (7 pm).  We'll be collecting new toys to donate to those in need, and I promise this is an event that you will NOT want to miss!

Hello Pack 618!

Reminder that next Wednesday is our annual holiday caroling at Brookdale North Scottsdale (formerly the Freedom Inn) on 64th and Greenway.  Additional information from Blake Kite is provided below, and I am attaching our lyric sheet so you can practice beforehand.  Don't forget to bring cookies or flowers, depending on your son's rank.

Our pack has done this for several years, and it really does mean the world to the residents of the home.  I'm not exaggerating when I say that there is no better way to get into the holiday spirit!  

Hope you can all make it!

PS --> our regular pack meeting is Thursday, December 17 at Copper Canyon (7 pm). Our pack volunteer committee has really outdone themselves in planning this year's holiday activity, so you absolutely will NOT want to miss it!




We invite all scouts and their siblings to join us for our annual visit to Brookdale North Scottsdale (15436 North 64th Street) as we sing for them and offer hospitality and holiday cheer.  Our performance will be Wednesday December 9th and we will meet at 6:15 PM in front of the building to gather and rehearse.  This is an annual tradition of our pack that the residents look forward to every year (we get contacted in the summer because it is one of the highlights of the holiday season and really means a lot to the residents). 

  Have the boys dressed in full class A uniforms and bring the following:
              
Tigers, Wolves and Bears would bring a dozen cookies for sharing
               Webelos should bring flowers to pass out

Our resident music teacher Andy will keep us on track with a guitar accompaniment.  Once the singing is complete, the boys will serve the residents cookies, flowers and holiday spirit.

What a great opportunity to share our spirit with others and help the boys understand and embrace the spirit of the season. 

I hope to see you all there.
