The Pack 788 service project has been scheduled for Monday, March 31st at 6:30pm. We will be meeting in the Education Building (Room 202) at Christ Church to prepare bag lunches for CARITAS (Congregations Around Richmond Involved To Assure Shelter). CARITAS is a great organization in which a number of churches around Richmond help the homeless by providing shelter, meals and services. During the week of March 31st, Christ Church will be welcoming and helping a group of homeless women. The lunches that we make on Monday will feed the CARITAS guests on Tuesday. The lunches will include a sandwich, chips, fruit and dessert. The scouts will also be asked to write a short note or draw a picture to place in the lunches.
We ask that you please volunteer to help with this service project. Only 30 lunches need to be made, which should be very easy to accomplish. Please follow the link www.SignUpGenius.com/go/10C0A4AA8AB23A75-pack1/8398848sign to sign up so we will know how many scouts will be participating. For additional information, contact Tom Tyler at 804-677-1626 or ttyler@irr.com.
Pam Miscikowski is Pack 788’s leader of the year!!!
Every year we get to recognize a Leader from our Pack to be honored at the Cardinal District Recognition Dinner. Pack 788 is blessed with a tremendous leadership team, individuals who give a large amount of their time and skills in providing the boys a safe, fun, and challenging learning environment. However, there is one leader who stands out as a vital part of this process. That leader is Pam; voted by her fellow leaders, verified by the parents and confirmed by the smiles of the boys of Pack 788.
Please send Pam a congratulations and thank you via email ( miscikowski@comcast.net ) or next time you see her.
Just as a reminder: Some points from previous communications regarding Parent participation and uniforms.
“REMINDER: Parents may NOT drop their scouts off for Pack meetings and Pack events. At least one parent or other adult must accompany and supervise the scout at these events. No exceptions. Thank you.”
Although we encourage Parents to participate in Den Meetings, however except for Tiger Den Meetings we do not require Parents accompany their scout during the Meeting. Until the scout is retrieved by the parent, guardian, or authorized adult the scout must remain with the Den Leader. No meeting your scout in the parking lot or in front of the building is allowed.
All scouts should have complete uniforms (and books) by now. If you are missing anything or missing some items from Pack 788, please contact your Den Leader directly.
“Uniforms: Make sure that your son has and wears a complete uniform (hat, uniform shirt, neckerchief, neckerchief slide, official belt). We ask that boys wear either the official dark blue cub scout pants or shorts OR some other dark blue shorts or pants—blue jeans would be acceptable. Webelos wear a tan shirt. Boys should arrive at pack meetings in complete uniform with their shirts tucked in and looking neat. Please NO shoes with wheels at den or pack events!
Our Class B T-shirts are acceptable for Den Meetings, hikes, camping, and other events as directed by Den Leaders. The T-Shirts are also available for leaders, parents and other scout supporters for $15. Returning scouts should already have a Class B T-shirt and starting this year all scouts will receive a new Class B T-shirt as part of the Pack Activity Fee. New scouts received a Pack 788 Baseball Cap included with their membership.”
The Leaders of Pack 788 will communicate the proper attire as it relates to future den events.
