CUBBY NOTES

September 16, 2025

Den Meeting
This Tuesday 9/16/2025
MUMC @ 6:30

Cubmaster Notes:

See everyone this week for Den meetings.

If you have not yet sold Popcorn, we need everyone to fill their required two shifts (or pay an opt out fee).

In this week’s email, we have a sign up link for Cub O’Ree. It’s a fantastic family camping trip. We could use a couple of volunteers to set up camp, help with food service, and other tasks to ensure a smooth weekend.

Popcorn Show and Sell:

We've had successful three weekends of sales!! Thanks to all of the families that helped our Pack! We expect that each Scout can cover their commitment this year in 2 shifts. 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.
Upcoming Shifts:
Saturday – 9/20: Sam's Club and Lowe's (Ballantyne)
Sunday – 9/21: Sam's Club and Lowe's (Ballantyne)

All of the important information related to popcorn sales this year can be found by clicking here.
