Events are back

The events should be showing up on the side again, sorry about that.

New Facebook fan page

We just finished the Pinewood Derby for 2012 and it was fun all around. We should have some pictures up this weekend.


Our old page on Facebook expired so we have a new fan page at: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Pack-61-East-Hartford/220695461356885  

Joining night September 21st

Sign-ups for the 2011-2012 cub scout session will be held on Wednesday between 6-7pm in the church hall. Time to begin another exciting year.

SPAGHETTI DINNER!!

Saturday, January 29, 2011

4:00 – 7:00 PM

South Congregational Church

1301 Forbes Street, East Hartford

Cost:  $6 Adults; $4, ages 12 & under

Max. $20 per Family

I don't know about you, but I'm getting hungry already!

Streaming ... probably not.

It was a great idea but I don't think we'll be able to get the wires setup for it tomorrow. The problem is getting an internet connection to the section of the room we need. Hopefully we'll be able to try something like this next year or at the regionals.

The Derby and the Weather

It looks like Friday we will be having some typical New England weather and this has a chance to impact our plans for the annual Pinewood Derby. 

• Thursday night we'll assemble the track after 7pm (I have a commitment and won't be there till about then, Bryan is not feeling well)
• Friday is normally when we get the track ready for the next day but this week it may be difficult to get there, also we have fun with movie night in the evening. This is usually the night most people check in their cars. If the conditions are not optimal we will not be meeting there in the evening, I will post a notice here on the blog.
• If we can't do weigh-in on Friday I'll need any adults available to be at the church as early as possible on Saturday morning, we'll get the cars checked in and ready for the noon racing. Matt Milbrant and myself will be probably be making sure the track is ready so it is critical we have additional adults to check-in the cars.
