Cub Capers November 13

Dear Parents/Guardians,                                 November 13, 2013

Popcorn will be available for pick-up next Wednesday, November 20th at the Scout Hall at 8:00pm.  Our meeting will also be wrapping up at this time to allow leaders to help with the distribution of popcorn.

On Saturday December 7th, we will be sponsoring a family outing to the Christkindl Market in Kitchener. For more information the Christkindl Market visit: http://www.christkindl.ca/ .  We will be traveling by bus from Elmira to Kitchener and returning the same way – it is much easier to find parking in Elmira than in Kitchener!  As usual, there will be carpooling available from Palmerston if needed.  More details on departure and return times will be available next week.

A note about winter weather:  As the weather turns more wintery, the general rule of thumb is that if school is cancelled due to weather, so is Cubs.  In cases where school has gone on as normal and the weather has turned foul later in the day, leaders will communicate a cancellation of the meeting if necessary. 

A note about the baby: Contrary to rumors going around last week, Akela’s baby is not expected to arrive until mid-December! If the baby does decide to come early (Baby will come when baby decides to come!) Cub meetings will proceed as scheduled – Akela just won’t be there.  Akela and baby will be at meetings after Christmas break.

A note about badge work: Cubs are welcome to work on badges at home.  Some badge requirements require a presentation to the group or to a leader.  This can easily be arranged most weeks.  Other badges cannot be presented in this way (swimming for example) – in this case a note from a parent or guardian will suffice as evidence of completed badge work.
