Cub Scout Pack 250

Pack 250,

This winter we are venturing out for our first Pack Ski Trip.  We’ve selected the Appalachian Ski Mountain on February 17^th.  Our goal is to have fun and earn the Snow Ski and Board Sports Pin and Belt Loop.  The Resort is offering a special rate to all in our Scout Group.  This includes Scouts, Parents, Siblings and Leaders.  The cost is $31 for lift ticket, ski rental and a 1 hour lesson.  All members of our group under the age of 16 will be required to rent a helmet for $3 plus tax.  Adults are encourage to wear a helmet.  Also, the Resort has agreed to provide us with the “Shape Skis” to make learning easier and the day more enjoyable.

You can sign up for the Trip by emailing me (rjm71@comporium.net) with the name of each person in your family and the age of each minor in the family.  Registration for the ski trip will close on Jan 28^th (Pinewood Derby Day).  All monies will be due on the 28^th.  Read the rest of this entry »

An evite went out Mid December to Pack 250 Families. Please note the date which is earlier than we usually have the event due to a scheduling conflict at Grace.

The attire is semi-formal (full uniform for scouts). A complimentary spaghetti dinner will be served by the Dads.

Photographs will be taken by Cliff Nichols Photography (a professional photographer but also one of our Dads from Den 12). He will offer 3 – 4 professional shots along with some candids on a CD for $24.95. Please come prepared to pay the night of the event with Cash or Check (payable to Cliff Nichols).

The following information was sent out to Pack 250 Families via Evite…

Pack 250 has the exciting opportunity to travel to Charleston, SC to sleep at the Aquarium and visit the Hunley! We will be meeting in the courtyard in front of the Aquarium at 6:30 PM and enter as a group on Friday, January 13th. (Fort Mill Schools are off that day) We will spend the evening experiencing dive shows, animal encounters, touch tanks, scavenger hunts, and much more before sleeping in front of any of the displays and tanks. Who is brave enough to sleep near the shark tank?!

Saturday morning we will wake up and have a small breakfast at 7 AM. Families will then have some free time to see a 4D theater show, tour the Aquarium some more if desired, or take in a little of Charleston before we all meet up as a group again at the Hunley (5.6 miles away; roughly a 15 minute drive) at 10:30 AM.
