Soapbox Derby Help Needed:
Our Soapbox Derby is an exciting event but it does take volunteers to make it a success. We still need a lot of parents to sign up for the following tasks:

Tire Pick-Up:  We need a few parents with trucks to pick up used tires from the Goodyear Tire on Lonetree either Thursday evening before 7pm or Friday afternoon around 3:30-4:00..

Set-up: We need help setting everything up, putting together the ramps, cook stoves and laying out all the tires. We will start set-up at 4:30.

Cooking: We need a couple of volunteers to help with cooking the hamburgers and hot dogs.

Snack Bar: We need a few parents to help run the snack bar.

If you can help out with any of these items, please go to the below Website to sign up and let us know:

We so appreciate your support of our Pack. This is always an awesome event....hope to see everyone there!

Popcorn Take-order Sales:
Yes, it is that time of year again. Popcorn take-order sales have begun.  This is a great time to sell to friends, family, neighbors and co-workers. They have some new products to sell as well as some returning favorites.

There are a lot of new, cool prizes that you can earn and this year the 30% profit is going directly into your son's scout account. This is a great way to help pay for camping trips, overnighters, uniform items or anything else scouting related.

 

If you didn't receive a take-order form at our Ice Cream Social, we will be handing them out at this week's den meetings. Please collect the money when you make the sale. Take order forms and money are due by October 17th. The orders will be delivered mid-November.
 
Online Sales:
In addition to site sales, we are allowed to sell online. If you have family and friends who live out of town, please take advantage of this. It is an easy process to get started.  All you have to do is go online to: sell.trails-end.com and set up an account.  Then you can e-mail family and friends directly from the site asking them to support your cub scout.  Their order ships right to them without you having to lift a finger.  Again, it is that simple.

Pack Google Calendar:
Don't forget, you can go to our Pack's website to check out our Google Calendar at: http://www.pack102.com/calendar  This will give you an idea of the activities and events we have planned throughout the year. 

Miss JoAnn's Corner:
Don't forget if you want to easily find any information from any of my previous emails, you can just go to our website at: www.pack102.com  and click on the link for Miss JoAnn's Corner. All my weekly emails are posted there for your convenience.

Have a fantastic week!
