Richfield Cub Scout Pack 157 Newsletter – December 2022

Hello Scout Families!!!

With the Thanksgiving holiday upon us, December’s Newsletter is a bit earlier to allow everyone enough time to let us know you will be at our Caroling & Bowling Event. Caroling & Bowling is a JAM PACKED EVENT that should not be missed! We will start off the day singing Christmas Carols and handing out the Scouts handmade ornaments and cards, next the Scouts will get in a couple rounds of bowling while enjoying pizza, then its awards, cupcakes and PIE TIME!

In this newsletter we will cover: VOLUNTEERING, THE CAROLING & BOWLING EVENT, PACK DUES & OUR MEAT STICK FUNDRAISER

GET INVOLVED!

Cub Scout Pack 157 needs you, our Scout parents, to help run the Pack! Find out how you can become more involved by attending one of our Parent Committee Meetings. We meet once a month at either the Richfield Village Hall, or before/after a Pack Event. Everyone’s time is valuable and we try to make the meetings accessible to everyone.

PACK DUES WILL BE COLLECTED @ CAROLING & BOWLIN

While the Scouts are Bowling, Pack Leadership will be available to go over your Scout’s commissions from the Fall Fundraiser. For those Scouts that did not earn enough to cover their 2022-2023 PACK DUES, or for those that did not participate in the Fall Fundraiser, we will be collecting dues at the event. If you are unable to make it to the event, please reach out to your Den Leader for more information on turning in your dues.
