The Cub Scout Motto: Do Your Best!

CUBBY NOTES
 
September 1, 2025

 
1st Den Meeting
This Tuesday 9/2/2025
MUMC Commons @ 6:30
Bring a friend!

First Meeting of the Year!:
See everyone this Tuesday @ 6:30 EST for our first Den Meetings of the Year. Scouts will have an opportunity to meet their Dens, work on their Den flags for the year, and work with their Den Leaders on expectations for the coming year. We have a full year of scouting ahead, and looking forward to seeing everyone this week. 

Popcorn Show and Sell: 

We had a successful first weekend of sales. Thanks to all of the families that helped our Pack over Labor Day weekend. We were able to sell $6k of popcorn, which is an incredible opening weekend!  We still have 17 Open Spots that WE NEED TO FILL FOR THIS COMING WEEKEND (Sept 6/7). We had to release shifts at Blackhawk Hardware last weekend as the Pack did not fill all open spots. This is our most heavily trafficked and profitable location! We expect that each Scout can cover their commitment this year in 2 shifts – get them done early! Our Pack's goal is the complete popcorn sales by the Cub O'Ree, but it could be sooner. If your scout has not completed their required shifts before we meet our goal and we halt the fundraiser for the year, these families will be required to pay the opt out fee (see link at bottom of this note for details). 

Saturday – 9/6: Blackhawk Hardware and Lowe's (Ballantyne)
Sunday – 9/7: Blackhawk Hardware and Sam's Club

You will need to download the Trail's End App to register for Show and Sells or if you’d like to do any Wagon Sales. When you register, it will likely ask you for the following information:

Council: Mecklenburg County
District: Etowah district
Unit: Pack 214
Unit Code: D656H

Don't delay, we need people to sign up for shifts ASAP otherwise we will need to release our spots at some of the high traffic locations we were able to reserve. This is our primary fund-raiser of the year and great way for your scout to earn money for their Scoutbook wallets.

In case you missed our email last week, all of the important information related to popcorn sales this year can be found by clicking here. More information will be sent out as the dates get closer.
