Cubmaster Notes:

See everyone tonight. Dress warmly! This week is our annual hike to Matthews FD to sing carols and bring the holiday spirit to local community helpers. Parents and siblings are welcome to join! We’ll hike to MFD (across the street from Matthews Elementary), sing carols, interact with MFD team, and then explore the lights of Stumptown Park before heading back to MUMC.

JARED BOXES – Update

Thank you to everyone that contributed a Jared Box. We collected over 75 boxes this year! We have a confirmed delivery date of 12/22 for the Jeff Gordon children’s hospital. We will share an update from the hospital once delivered.

PACK OUTING:
SATURDAY, JAN 17th

Pack 214 families, we’re excited to announce our annual Pack Outing, and this year we’ll be heading to Discovery Place Science in Charlotte on January 17, 2026 for a day of hands-on exploration and adventure! This is one of our favorite opportunities each year for Scouts and families to learn, have fun, and enjoy time together as a Pack. To help us plan tickets and logistics, please take a moment to RSVP using the SignUpGenius link (live next week). The Pack pays for tickets for scouts and families, and we need an accurate final headcount by January 10th, 2026. We can’t wait to see everyone there for an unforgettable day of discovery!
