Hello Pack 52! We hope everyone had a great time at the Blue & Gold. Thanks, again, to Jai Sachdev and the Webelos Den for organizing a great event! We also want to thank Christine Rinaldi and Kat Broadhead for organizing the great catering and assisting with the set up of the event. Also, congratulations to Grayson Lowe (Tiger Den) and Anderson Wozar (Wolf Den) for finishing in first place in their rank at last week's District Pinewood Derby! A few updates this week, so check them out, below… DEN MEETING SCHEDULEAll Den Meetings for tonight (March 26) have been cancelled. Bear Den 3 will meet on Friday night (March 29) as planned. SCOUT NIGHT AT THE PHILLIESToday is the final day to sign up to attend the Scout Night at the Phillies! This is turning into an annual event for Pack 52, and it’s a great time! Once again, we have an opportunity for the Scouts to march on the field at Citizens Bank Park as part of the pre-game parade, and all scouts will receive a special Scout Night at the Phillies Patch! If we have more than 25 attending, Pack 52 will be listed on the message boards during the game. Scout Night @ The Phillies is on Friday, April 26th (Game starts at 7:05, plan to be there by 6PM for the pre-game parade). Cost is $20/ticket for Field Level Outfield seats. Scouts should plan to wear their Class A (Full) uniform for the pre-game parade, but can change into their Pack T-shirt during the game.

Stop out and see what’s on tap for the rest of this year and our preparations to start planning for next year. SESAME PLACE DISCOUNT TICKETSFor those families interested, we have an opportunity to purchase tickets to Sesame Place at a discounted rate. Information and signup genius is available here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090d4bafac22a6f58-discounted Deadline to reserve tickets is Monday, April 1st. TOHICKON GOLD RUSHGold Rush is an outdoor themed event for teams of Cub Scouts. The theme for this event is based on the Great California Gold Rush. The Cub Scouts are encouraged to do their best in fun activities at a series of "towns" (stations), where they will be awarded a claim of "gold nuggets" based on their performance. The format is similar to a Klondike Derby for older Scouts, but the Cub Scouts bring a “Covered Wagon” instead of a sled. We had a great (but cold) time last year at the Gold Rush! This year’s Gold Rush is scheduled for Saturday, April 13th from 8:30AM – 12:00PM. Please RSVP on the signup genius, by Sunday, March 31st so that we can put together teams and plan to put together wagons. Signup Genius (and more info) is available here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090d4bafac22a6f58-2019 APRIL TOHICKON DISTRICT BB SHOOTOUTRegistration for this month's BB Shootout is now open!

I’ll be adding this event for the next several months to the Pack Calendar so you’ll see when this is occurring if you want to go (or want to go back). APRIL PACK MEETINGOur next Pack Meeting will be Tuesday night, April 16th in the OLMC School Cafeteria. We’ll be doing Pack and Den pictures during this meeting (so please make sure that your Scout is in their full “Class A” uniform! We’ll also have a presentation from the Council on the Friends of Scouting program. This Pack Meeting will be run by the Tiger Den. SPRING FAMILY CAMPING TRIPWe are starting to put together our plans for our Spring Camping Trip (May 17-19). Due to space constraints, we’re heading to Tohickon Park (not Tinicum). Den Leaders will start planning soon for this and we’ll keep you updated as we get closer. Unfortunately, due to the layout of the Tinicum Park campground, we will not be able to launch rockets during this Camping Trip. If you have a need for camping gear, please let your Den Leader know and we’ll get the word out to the Pack to see what we can provide. CUB SCOUT DAY CAMPSThe Tohickon District has recently announced Cub Scout Day Camps for this Summer. Cost is $185/Scout (or $50 if you volunteer to assist with the Day Camps for the week).
