![]() January 2000 Pack 505 Receives Awards Some of the Pack's adult leaders attended the annual Golden Arrow District awards dinner last week. Pack 505 was recognized in the program for being a quality unit and having an on-time recharter. Pinewood Derby Workshop a Success The Pinewood Derby workshop went very well earlier this month. Special thanks go to John Stavinoha, the Pack's Pinewood Derby coordinator, for getting everything arranged. We are also grateful, once again, to Jock Mueller, the Troop 505 committee chair, for furnishing all of the equipment. Both John and Jock were present for the entire workshop to make sure that everything ran smoothly. ![]() Pinewood Derby Schedule As everyone knows, this upcoming weekend is the Derby itself. To help make sure that the races go off without a hitch on Saturday, please come to the gym Friday night between 7:00 and 9:00 to have your car weighed and take a test run down the track. That way you can make any last-minute adjustments and ensure that your car is all set for the actual racing. As we have previously announced, cars will not be allowed to race if they have weights falling off them, if wheels come off during a race, if there is wet paint on them, or there are other problems of that nature. The race schedule on Saturday is as follows: Tigers 8:30 Wolves 9:30 Bears 10:30 Webelos 11:30 ![]() As you know, this year each age group is divided into two categories of cars -- standard and modified (depending on whether or not the wheelbase has been lengthened). A champion will be crowned for each category in every age group. Upcoming Events January's busy schedule for the Pack will continue in early February. Scout Sunday..Saturday On Saturday, February 5, we will celebrate Scout Sunday at the 5:00 Mass (with Troop 505). We ask all boys and adult leaders to attend, in full uniform. Please gather at 4:45 just outside the main entrance to the church. We will enter in a procession carrying the American flag and the Pack and Troop flags. Please be in full uniform (NO jeans, please). Spring Campout Looking further ahead, make sure your calendar is marked for the spring family campout on April. Coffee and Donuts On Sunday, February 6, the Pack will host the coffee after the 8:00, 9:30, and 11:00 Masses. Schedule is: Den 2 8:30 Den 9 9:30 Den 3 11:00 ![]() Blue and Gold Banquet On Thursday, February 10, we will enjoy our annual Blue and Gold Banquet, catered once again this year by Skeeter's. Everything will be provided except dessert, which each den should bring. (Please, only cookies. Cakes and pies pose too many clean-up challenges.) Each den is also responsible for its own centerpiece(s). (Den leaders need to provide head counts by February 1). ![]() |
