Cubs who complete the other requirements in advance may get their Nova Award (patch or pi pin) from the Camp Snyder Trading Post on the same day. The fee for this workshop is $20. Registration will be forthcoming on November 16, 2014.

November Pack Meeting
The Core Value for November is Citizenship. Pack 1863 demonstrates citizenship this month through our participation in Scouting for Food and our recognition of our friends and family and all those who serve on Veterans Day.

Saturday and Sunday Car Cutting Clinics:
Scouting for Food
This Saturday we will have our collection day for Scouting for Food. We will meet again at GBE at 9 a.m. After collection, we will sort the food at GBE before handing it over to the Boy Scouts for transport to the food bank. We need boxes. Please bring any boxes that are about the size of a standard paper ream box. A great turn out Saturday morning will go a long way in making this process go quickly and smoothly. Remember, the kids get a service project patch for Scouting for Food!
