Hello Pack 801 families!

On Jan. 15th, a District representative came to our pack meeting and gave a Friends of Scouting (FOS) presentation. We then distributed FOS donation flyers/papers to the parents. Reminder to all that we need your FOS cards turned in at the Pinewood Derby Test & Tune on Friday, January 25. Even if you haven't donated yet or if you don't plan to donate -- please turn in your cards - just mark your planned pledge. There is no deadline to the donation, we just want to make sure all the cards are back by then :)

The next pack meeting will be held at LaFox Martial Arts at 7:00 PM on Tuesday, January 15th .
The address is 40W089 IL Route 64, St. Charles, IL 60175 (right next to the Balmoral Scottish Restaurant)

The Blue and Gold Banquet is one of the year’s highlights for the Pack 801 scouts! At this annual celebration of the anniversary of Scouting in America, Pack 801 will honor the accomplishments of our Arrow of Light scouts, who will be presented with the Arrow of Light – the highest award in Cub Scouting. All scouts and families are welcome!

Explore the one-of-a-kind exhibits at your own pace. Participate in special activities, make your own science toys, and complete a scavenger hunt. When it’s all done, sleep nose-to-nose with a 727, next to a giant heart or steps away from a toy-making factory. It’s all part of the Snoozeum! The admission fee includes overnight admission, parking, a film in the Giant Dome Theater, activities, a Snoozeum patch and breakfast. We have reserved 50 spots, register now!
