Hi Pack 118 families. It was great seeing so many new faces on Tuesday evening. Hopefully I didn't bore you with all of the details on procedures, but we needed to get that out of the way. Now that its done we can start focusing on have a fun and exciting year. We've got some great events coming up, some pretty soon.
* First, the Hornets Nest District in cooperation with the Waymer Aeromodeler Chapter of the Academy of Model Aeronautics will be hosting a rocket launch event on Sunday, Sept. 19 from 11am to 2pm. This event is open to youth interested in learning more about joining Cub Scouts! They will have the opportunity to launch rockets as well as learn about large model airplanes and how they are flown with electronic guidance systems. Event fee is $5 per youth participant. We already have 2 scouts signed up to go.
