Hello Pack 250 families:

Here is the cub scout calendar for April!  The big event this month is Graduation Campout.  A separate email was sent with the details (directions, times, events, etc) for graduation campout and an e-vite will be sent shortly.  Please reply to the e-vite so that we have an accurate headcount for campsites and food.  The Scout Expo is touring the country and we’re lucky enough to have Charlotte as one of the expo locations.  The purpose of the expo is to celebrate the 100th anniversary of scouting and demonstrate scouting activities to the public.  Also, we’ll be receiving our Rocket Kits in April in preparation for the Rocket Launch on May 18th.   The District Pinewood Derby is on April 17th, anyone may attend.  There will be food, games, prizes, and the best of the best will be racing – let’s go support the winners from Pack 250 – Jonathan Patyk, Jason Cauble, and Alex Boone in the big district race.   Thanks to everyone who participated in the adopt a park program at Pitcairn Park.  We will continue with monthly cleanup activities at the park, a schedule for each den will follow and participation will count toward the World Conservation awards.  Please plan accordingly for these April events, I look forward to seeing everyone!
