Pack 93 Meeting Schedule and Mistletoe Fundraiser

Hi Pack 93 Families,

Because the 4th Monday of November (the 25th) is during the week of Thanksgiving break, we will not be having our regular Pack 93 meeting that night.  We hope everyone enjoys a great Thanksgiving with family and friends!   

Due to the holiday schedule and timing for our mistletoe fundraiser, our meetings in December will be on Monday, December 2nd and Monday, December 16th, both at 6:00 pm. 

Now that we're entering the holiday season, It's time to kick off our big (and only...) fundraising event for the year--mistletoe sales!  This has proven to be a great way to raise funds to support pack activities and help reduce the cost of events such as the upcoming USS Hornet sleepover.  However, we can only be successful if everyone helps out.  

We will get started with a mistletoe packaging session at our meeting on Monday evening, December 2nd, at 6:00 pm.  The more boys (and parents!) that show up to help, the more mistletoe we will have packaged and ready to sell the following weekend.  We will also spend a little time teaching salesmanship to the boys.

Sales Dates/Times:

We plan to sell the packaged mistletoe at Del Monte Center and Star Market at the following dates/times: 
  • Del Monte Center: Saturday, Dec 7th and 14th (10:00 - 2:00 pm)
  • Star Market: Sunday, Dec 8th (11:00 - 1:00 pm)

Please sign up on the attendance spreadsheet at:  http://pack93toro.blogspot.com/p/attendance-spreadsheet.html for one or more blocks of time (1 hour minimum for Tigers, 2 hour blocks for other ranks). 

We'll provide more details regarding the actual mistletoe sales in the next week or so. 

Thanks!!

Reminder--Sign Up for the Veteran's Day Parade on Monday, November 11th!

Greetings Pack 93 Families,

This is one last reminder regarding the Salinas Veteran's Day Parade on Monday, November 11th. We are hoping to have a good turnout from our Pack, so please sign up on the attendance spreadsheet at: http://pack93toro.blogspot.com/p/attendance-spreadsheet.html 

Details are as follows:

When: Please arrive by 1:15 pm so we can be ready for the start of the opening ceremonies at 1:30.  The parade will start promptly at 2:00 pm and lasts about an hour. 

Where:  Meet in the Salinas High School Student Parking Lot, 726 South Main Street. Usually all the scouts (Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts) are grouped in the same area, so we shouldn't be too hard to find.  You will need to park in the neighborhoods adjacent to Salinas High School. 

All family members are free to join in.  Scouts wear your uniform and show Pack 93 pride!

Please note we will not meet the evening of the 11th since we will be marching in the parade that afternoon.
