Mistletoe Fundraiser 2022

UPDATE: Thanks everyone for the tremendous effort on Mistletoe sales!!!  Our Pack made $1,242 in profit.  We appreciate all the help on this fundraiser!  Next up is our Pinewood Derby on 1/21/23.  Can't wait to see you there.  Have a wonderful 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 we plan throughout the year.

Mistletoe bundling will take place at the Church Parish Hall on Sunday, 12/4 from 4-7 and Monday, 12/5 from 6-8.  Please plan to attend one or both nights.  Also, if you have extra refrigerator space let us know.  We’ll need to store the mistletoe so it is fresh to sell. 

 

We are all set for our Mistletoe sales on Saturday, 12/10, Sunday, 12/11, Saturday, 12/17 and Sunday, 12/18.  We’ll be at Star Market & the Del Monte Mall both days from 12:00 – 4:00.  This has proven to be a great way to raise funds to support pack activities and help reduce the cost of events such as camping outings or sleepovers.  However, we can only be successful if everyone helps out.  

 

Please go to the attendance sheet and sign up for a shift (or several!) if you have not already done so.  Each hour will need a Lead (see bullet below), please put “Yes” in the Lead column if you are willing to help out here and there is no Lead already identified.  Your contact # would be great too, so we can coordinate details. Attendance sheet

Salinas Veterans Parade - Friday, November 11th

Come join us for the Salinas Veterans Day Parade on Friday, November 11th. The scouts have a lot of fun marching in the parade, and it also provides an opportunity for them to show appreciation for our Veterans.   

Please arrive by 12:30pm so we can be settled by the start of the opening ceremonies at 1:00.  The parade will start promptly at 2:00 pm. 

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

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

When: 12:30 – approx. 3:30pm

If you and your scout plan to participate, please add your name to the attendance spreadsheet so we know to expect you.
