Laser Quest, 6pm Tuesday, Dec 17th

Just a reminder that this Tues., Dec. 17th at 6:00 we will be meeting at Laser Quest for a fun evening. The Bears won this opportunity by selling the most total popcorn as a den, within the pack. Go Bears!!! Time is 6:00-7:30 on Tues. No money is needed for playing.

I would like to ask though if your child could bring a $2-$5 donation that I will collect, as I would like our den to be able to purchase some shoes for children in another country. In stead of a goody bag, I thought that this would be a good contribution for our children to be a part of........and I would encourage them to use their own money as well.

I got the idea from the sermon series we are learning about at church called Advent Conspiracy. I saw that we could buy a child a pair of shoes for as little as $5 dollars. So if you feel like you'd like to be a part of this, please send your child with an envelope on Tues.that they can give to me and I will follow through with the donation.

Thanks,
Diane Marzigliano

December 17 Den Meeting - Laser Tag!!

Tuesday, December 17 at 6pm 
Laser Tag, 644 E. Rand Road
(near Chili's & Olive Garden at Palatine/Rand Rds)

Because our den sold the most popcorn out of the entire pack, our leadership is rewarding the boys with a trip to Laser Tag!!  Please leave a comment or send Sharon a note whether or not your son will be able to make it.  

Once we firm up the schedule for the evening, I'll post an end time.  You can drop off your scout for this event if you'd like.

UPDATE December 7 - Caroling at the Lutheran Home

December 7 -845am


The Cub Scouts will be headed to the Lutheran Home to sing songs for the residents.  

I thought this was a "drop off" event, but, in fact, parents are invited to join as well.  Might help the boys with their singing!

You can meet at St. Peter (Highland Side) between 830 and 845am to shuttle to the Lutheran Home to reduce the number of parking needed over there (construction is limiting their lot these days).  Or, park on the streets South of Lutheran Home and meet the pack in the lobby a few minutes before 9am.    
 

December 6 Pack Meeting - our den is hosting!

 December 6 at 7:00pm at the St. Peter Cafeteria.  

Please, take note of the following details for the evening: 

• Arrive at 6:45 to help set up and practice the flags. 
• Bring 2 dozen home-baked cookies. In order to meet our "What's Cooking" requirement, please have your scout assist in baking 2 dozen cookies and bring them to share at the pack meeting. They don't have to be Christmassy - all cookies tastes great!

We will have a full night!  We are hoping to have the Arlington Heights Police K-9 Unit come and give us a demonstration that night.  Also, we will be doing a Christmas craft for the boys to bring to residents at the Lutheran Home the next day during caroling.
