type='text'>Fall Family Campout, Nov 21-23</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;Dear Pack 249 Families:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I am very excited to invite everyone to participate in out first campout.&amp;nbsp; We have reserved several tent sites at Collier-Seminole State Park (&lt;a href="http://www.floridastateparks.org/collier-seminole/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.floridastateparks.org/collier-seminole/&lt;/a&gt;) for Fri - Sun, Nov 21-23.&amp;nbsp; This campground offers bathrooms with flush toilets and hot showers.&amp;nbsp; Since we have a limited number of spots, EVERYONE MUST PAY ON OR BEFORE THE NOV PACK MEETING (11/18).&lt;br&gt; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This will be an exciting outdoor experience in a beautiful Everglades setting.&amp;nbsp; Everyone in your family is welcome to join us for hiking, biking (bring your own bike and helmet), canoeing (canoes available for rental), and/or fishing.&amp;nbsp; All Scouts can earn advancement; learn new Scouting skills; and have lots of fun exploring the wilderness.&amp;nbsp; Our Saturday evening campfire will involve everyone and include&amp;nbsp;a flag retirement ceremony, and on Sunday we will close with a Scouts&amp;#39; Own service.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The cost is $30 per family.&amp;nbsp; This covers the park fees, s&amp;#39;mores, and Sat dinner (ALL&amp;nbsp;WEBELOS&amp;nbsp;WILL SHARE IN COOKING AND CLEANING).&amp;nbsp; Dens should arrange for all other meals.&amp;nbsp; In an effort to lessen our impact, we ask all Scouts and families to bring eating utensils (we will have them for Sat dinner if you can&amp;#39;t).&amp;nbsp; Webelos Scouts are expected to have these.&amp;nbsp; Also, every Scout must bring their full uniform (Class A) and Pack t-shirt.&amp;nbsp; Den Leaders need to make sure all attendees have camping gear.&amp;nbsp; Please, let Alejandro, Steve, or Keenan know if any equipment is needed.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The drive is about 2 hours.&amp;nbsp; You may arrive any time Fri or Sat, and you may leave at any time.&amp;nbsp; We plan to organize Pack activities for Sat, as well as provide time for families and Dens to enjoy some time on&amp;nbsp;their own.&amp;nbsp; Tigers must have an adult family member present; and if any older Scout attends without a parent, a permission slip designating another responsible adult must be submitted (and separate tent arrangements must be made).&amp;nbsp; We do not use electronic devices on campouts (ipod, stereo, tv, video game, etc.), so please leave them at home.&amp;nbsp; Adults may carry a cell phone, but we ask you to keep it quiet and use it privately.&amp;nbsp; Alcohol is strictly prohibited at all BSA functions, and tobacco products need to be used away from Scouts.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Please, let me know if you have any questions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Keenan&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a

This training is for WEBELOS leaders and future WEBELOS leaders who want to learn the ins and outs of Cub Scout camping.  This is required training for leaders to be able to take their scouts out on den camp-outs.  Also, this training is open to all scout parents.

Please note the addition of a couple of rules from last year: the wheel base cannot be lengthened and the wood (as well as the wheels and axels) must be from the BSA kit.  DO NOT PURCHASE A PINEWOOD DERBY KIT FROM ANYWHERE OTHER THAN THE BSA.  You shouldn't need another kit, of course.  Please, direct all questions to your Den Leader.  We will conduct an open division following the same rules, though we will award only one trophy.  The open division is for anyone other than a Cub Scout (or an additional Scout car).&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;"&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif;"&gt;We still need someone to volunteer to run this event.
