CUBBY NOTES

DEN MEETINGS
MUMC Commons – 6:30 PM
(Lions DO NOT Meet!)

CUBMASTER NOTES

We have Den Meetings this week inside the MUMC Commons at 6:30 pm on Tuesday. Lions do not meet this week.

In the Newsletter this week

  • Pinewood Derby Race on Feb. 24th.
  • Camp Card Fundraiser
  • Cub Scout Camp Information
 
A quick reminder about our behavior policy: Please ensure that your child
upholds respectful conduct during scouting events and meetings. Familiarize
yourself with the full policy to support a positive scouting experience for
all – Click Here!

 

CAMP CARDS FUNDRAISER

Pack 214 participates in the MCC Camp Card fundraiser.

Camp Cards are a great way for your scout to earn money to pay for trips, camps, and Recharter fees.  Pick up as many cards as you think you can sell. Each card is $10. Bring the proceeds to the Pack and your scout's Scoutbook account will get $5 for each card sold. The council gets the other $5.

This is a no risk fundraiser; just return any cards that you do not sell. You can also sign up to sell online. There is a feature where people can purchase cards to donate to first responders. You must create an account to sell online: HERE

Talk to your Committee Chair if you have questions and to pick up some cards.

Please consider raising funds for your scout by selling Camp Cards!

 


PINEWOOD DERBY RACE 

The Pinewood Derby race is coming up this Saturday, February 24. Each scout gets a derby car kit and additional kits can be purchased for family members for $7 each.

The Pinewood Derby Race registration form is below:

https://form.123formbuilder.com/6359734/2024-pinewood-derby-pre-registration

Please register by the end of Thursday Feb 22nd so we can import the data on Feb 23th and have it ready. Registration will also be open the morning of race day during inspection.

Interested in helping with Pinewood Derby? 
We will also need volunteers on race day (the morning of 2/24) as well as helpers on Friday evening 2/23 to help set up the track. Both opportunities are an easy way to help out the pack and it's very much appreciated. Sign Up Genius HERE!
