Hello Everyone,Now that the excitement of Klondike Derby has passed, it is time to turn our attention to the Pinewood Derby!
Our Pinewood Derby Committee has done a great job planning and organizing the race. The race will be held on Friday, February 10 in the Wesley Freedom United Methodist Church CLC (the same room we used for the December Pack Meeting). Please go to www.pack719.com and click on the Pinewood Derby link ( http://www.pack719.com/activities/pinewood-derby) for event details and official race rules. Please note that the rules are slightly different from previous years, and if cars do not comply with these rules, they will not be allowed to race.
This year we are also instituting a staggered arrival time for weigh-in and inspection, so we can avoid bottlenecks, and reduce confusion and chaos. 1. 5:10p – Den 6
2. 5:20p – Den 1
3. 5:30p – Den 3
4. 5:40p – Dens 5 & 7
5. 5:50p – Den 2 Please do not arrive before your den's scheduled check-in time! The timeline for the entire evening is attached in a separate document. I look forward to seeing you all for an exciting night of racing! Dave Marriott, Cubmaster |

Please complete your clothing inspection (see attached requirements) before proceeding to our site. You will not be allowed to participate if you do not follow the clothing requirements!!! This applies to everyone, including parents and siblings. Even if it is 65 and sunny, you need to wear the cold weather clothing for the inspection. Once you are approved, you can take off layers. A general time frame is included in the rules. If you need to leave before the end of the event, please let your den leader(s) know.

Given the poor road conditions, we have decided to postpone the Pinewood Derby car cut-out today. Brian Arndt has graciously offered to reschedule it for Tuesday 1/24 from 6:00PM - 9:00PM. His address is:
5802 Hanna Road Eldersburg, MD 21784
We will remind everyone of the change at the Pack Meeting on Monday 1/23.

Just a few reminders about some exciting upcoming events:
- Klondike Derby headcount and registration fees are due to your den leader by Monday 12/12/11. We will register for this event as a Pack at the 12/13 Roundtable Meeting, so we need to know the number of scouts and family members who will be attending. The Pack will pay registration fees for all scouts and registered leaders, but the cost for other family members is $4 per person. Remember, Tiger scouts are required to be accompanied by an adult family member. Here is a link to the Klondike Derby information on the Carroll District website: http://bsacarroll.org/events/klondike_derby . The main event for Cub Scouts will be held on Saturday 1/28 at Freedom Park. This is an all-day outdoor event, so please note attached clothing requirements. Boy Scouts and Webelos are allowed to camp from Friday 1/27 through Sunday 1/29. Additional details will be provided at upcoming den and pack meetings. Please let me know if you have any questions.
- December Pack Meeting and train garden visit will be held on Friday 12/16/11 at 6:30PM. We will start the meeting at Wesley Freedom United Methodist Church (room location to be determined). After our traditional opening, announcements, and awards, the boys will work on a holiday ornament craft and have some snacks. Then, we will take a short trip down Rt. 32 to visit the train garden at the West Friendship Volunteer Fire Department. The boys will be dismissed from the meeting at the fire station (i.e., we will not return to the church as a group). Please consult with your leaders about den meeting schedules for last 2 weeks of December.
- Pinewood Derby will be held on Friday 1/20/12 at 6:30PM in the Wesley Freedom United Methodist Church Community Living Center (CLC). The boys will be receiving their car kits soon, and we are trying to arrange a cut-out event at Brian Arndt's (Webelos II den leader) workshop sometime in late December or early January. More details to come.
That's it for now. See you all at the Pack Meeting on Friday 12/16/11! |

Welcome to the new website. We are training the Pack Leaders ( Akela) to post stories, update their calendars, and post some pictures - so 'Bear" with us for a while until everyone learns how to do it. Websites are getting easier to develop, easier to maintain, and easier to work as a group to keep them current. Hopefully as we move forward you will notice some amazing things happening in our Pack as a direct result of our new website. We look forward to watching that happen and hopefully you are also! |
