Ahoy there mateys!

Raingutter Regatta

We are a couple of days away from one of our last Pack summer adventures -- the Annual Raingutter Regatta. This is our highly anticipated end of summer back to school blast and we look forward to seeing you all there.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 26

3-6pm

UMC-Keller Scout House

1025 Johnson Road

Grab your kit at the Scout Shop TODAY! They're open on Saturday too!  If you have a sibling wanting to race, too, grab an extra for them... everyone can race!

The "official" rules and regulations on this event can be found by clicking {HERE} Be sure that you have logged into Scoutbook and RSVP'd so that we know you're coming. Big things to note -- use the kit, be sure to paint it so that the wood is sealed, don't attach the sail, but most importantly -- HAVE FUN! This is a super simple thing... and it's more about FUN than anything else!  Plus... ICE CREAM!

What to bring?

• Completed regatta boat
• Portable camp chairs for your family
• Drinks for your family (This is a BRING YOUR OWN DRINK event. No glass containers please.)

Each scout who participates earns a raingutter regatta patch for their brag vest.

We will be cooking hot dogs for the family too!  Come join the fun. Each scout who participates earns a raingutter regatta patch for their brag vest.

Have a friend interested in Scouting? This is a great introductory activity to show them all the fun we have in Pack 1910. This is the official day to JOIN PACK 1910!

This is our August sign-up night so if you have a friend interested, pick up a peer-to-peer recruiting card from April and have your friend turn it when they join!  In return, your scout earns his RECRUITER patch!

Summer

Cub Scouts is a year-round program and our Pack makes the most of each summer to bring opportunities for our Scouts to stay engaged and involved all year long!

We will be utilizing the e-vite system to track RSVP's for these events.  This helps the adult coordinators know which Scouts to expect so that no one is left behind.  Please be sure you are RSVPing -- even if it is a "no" -- so that we know you received the e-vite.  The courtesy of a reply is greatly appreciated.  

Please understand that many of these programs we are putting on require not only a minimum number of participants, but also a deposit --which we cover.  If you RSVP and are not able to attend, you will still need to pay your portion as it likely has already been covered by the Pack.  Thank you for your understanding.
