BLUE AND GOLD BANQUET:
That was the best B&G Banquet ever. Every year they just get better
and better. We trust that all had a great time and enjoyed all of
the great dishes that were there. And what an awesome spread we had,
the food was unbelievable. We have such an incredible Pack family
and we are so thankful for each and every one of you. Thank you all.
We would like to recognize the following businesses for their
contributions, making our B&G Banquet a great success.
| Kroger (Christiansburg) | Pizza Hut (Roanoke Street) |
| Chic-Fil-A (Spradlin Farm) | NRV SuperBowl (Arbor Drive) |
| Ameilia’s (Cambria Street) | Adventure World (Midway Plaza Drive) |
| Papa John’s Pizza (S. Franklin Street) | |
Stop by, identify yourself, and tell them “Thanks.”
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY:
It is time for bad weather to come. Just
remember that all Scouting functions are canceled if the weather
does not support the activity. If school is canceled the day of
a Den meeting or Pack meeting, so will that meeting be
canceled. Because of the planning involved in the Blue and Gold
Banquet and the Pinewood Derby, they will not be canceled except
for extreme bad weather.
RE-CHARTERING:
The on-line re-chartering process has begun.
COMMUNITY SERVICE:
Our Adopt-A-Street Community service was
canceled due to weather, but not to worry; we have another one
on the horizon.
PINEWOOD DERBY:
Our Pinewood Derby will be held on
Saturday, February 18, at 12:00 p.m. here at the CPC.
Registration will start at 11:00 for all that what to enter the
race. The race will start promptly at 12:00 p.m. and no late
entries will be accepted. The winner of each den will race in
the final round for the overall championship. There will be
prizes for the winners.
There will also be an open race for all other family members.
If you would like to get a car, the cost is $4.00 per car. Please make sure you
have the correct change on hand. There will be prizes for the winners of the open race.
On Saturday, February 4, and Saturday, February 11, the Pit Stop
will be open from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for any scout that
needs help with his car. There are weight and slot restrictions
for the cars, so come by the Scout Room to make sure the car
conforms to pinewood derby specks. You will also be able to
paint and design your cars then.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ OUR PINEWOOD DERBY RULES
Due
to the information that can be found on-line, we have made some
minor rule modifications that may make your car ineligible,
especially if you build it according to what you see on the
internet. Our rules will be strictly enforced and any decisions
made by the Race Committee will be final. Get a copy of the rules
