For the Q - Z group please bring a dessert.
The Pack will supply water to drink. If you would prefer something else that is up to the individual families to bring.

Fishing this Saturday + Scout Sunday
Hi All,
Sorry for the late post regarding the fishing expedition this Saturday, February 4th. I had a little difficulty establishing contact with the representative at McAlpine Lake, but our group reservation is now confirmed for Saturday. The owner told me he stocked the lake with trout twice in January and that there should be plenty of fish for the boys to catch.
A signup sheet has been added to the Attendance Spreadsheet on the blog. While not critical, if those of you who plan to participate can sign up, that will help us establish numbers so we can get the greatest price reduction since prices have gone up a bit since last year:
Adult (Limit 4 lbs*) $30
Youth (Limit 3 lbs*) $20
Day Use (No fishing) $10
*$6 per pound over limit
If we have over ten participants, we will get a 10% discount with a potential for a bigger discount for a larger group.
The website for McAlpine Lake can be found at: http://www.mcalpinelake.com/ . The site includes directions and lots of other information. The lake will be open at 7:00 am and will close at 5:00 pm. Please feel free to arrive and depart between those times as desired. It's best to get an early start since fishing is typically best early in the morning (or at dusk, if you want to stay that long!).
For those who haven't been to McAlpine Lake, they have a small bait and tackle shop which sells night crawlers and other bait. In addition to worms, PowerBait or lures work well for trout, depending on conditions.
Park Rules Are as Follows:
Everyone that enters McAlpine Lake must have a pass.
All persons must wear the pass at all times on the Lake so that it is visible.
McAlpine Lake Safety Rules:
**Finally, while we didn't advertise this well, the annual nationwide Scout Sunday is this Sunday, February 5th. Boy Scout Troop 93 will be leading a flag ceremony at the beginning of the 10:00 am service at Church of the Good Shepherd. The boys of Pack 93 are welcome to attend and follow the Boy Scouts as they lead the ceremony. If you would like to have your Cub Scout participate, please have him wear his uniform and be there at 9:30 for a short rehearsal.
