Everyone had a great time at Cub Fun Day. Archery, BB guns, monkey bridge, pumpkin painting, Gaga ball, wood burning demonstrations, catapults, s’mores (and later s’more brownies)… what a weekend!
Lots of Cubs camped out last night at Cub Field too! Thank you everyone who came out and everyone who helped out.
Next overnight will be Adventure Aquarium sometime this Winter (waiting on dates to be released) and then we’ll have more camping this Spring and Summer!
PLEASE VOTE!
The scarecrow the cubs helped stuff at the pack meeting last week is now part of a Scarecrow Contest at Smithville Park. The three scarecrows with the most votes win cash, which would be useful for future pack events. So please vote for Scarecrow number 2 “Mrs. Leeds’ 13th Child” by Pack 48 at this link:

Share the link and ask friends and family to vote too-pics of the scarecrow are below. You can also vote on-site by using the QR code next to the scarecrow at Smithville if you visit the scarecrows in person.
Thanks!!
