We had a great time at the Kunstfest. I would like to thank all the families and kids who came and helped run the booth. Traci will soon have all the numbers together and we will know how we did. I know we probably didn't make thousands of dollars, but I feel it was a good learning experience for all of us.

This weekend is the Popcorn Sales Kickoff. Hopefully you have received your order froms in the mail. If you have not by Friday 9/25, please let me know. I'm going out to the Scout Center and will pick up extras if I can.

You can begin selling this weekend. You do not have to collect money when you get the orders. Money can be collected when the popcorn is delivered.
If you sell 15 orders the you will get a free Coleman Lantern. Those selling 15 or more must turn them immediately to Dana or Toni so that we can get the prizes for the boys.

Sunday, Sept. 27th is the Autumnfest Parade in Poseyville. We are going out of town and will not be there. Toni would like for any boys that would like to march in the parade to meet at the Post Office in Poseyville at 1:30.

Our next meeting is a Pack Meeting on Monday, September 28th at 6:30 at South Terrace. We will have sign- up sheets for the Popcorn Sales at Rural King at this meeting.

Our Den will meet again on Oct 12th and we are adding the Tiger Cubs to our group. They cannot find anyone to be their leaders, so we are going to adopt them and help them through the trail to becoming Wolves. At this Den Meeting we will be proud to have the Color Guard from VFW Post 1114 Evansville come to show us the proper presentation, care and folding of our American Flag. Amber Sailer is bringing refreshments this month. (Thanks Amber)

Also in October we will begin our Go See It trips. I'll notify everyone about these at a later time.

I have a blog where all this information is posted along with any other thing I think is interesting. I will be keeping this up to date with all our activities and meetings. I also post a lot of free activities the boys can do on their own and also things that can be done as a family. I'm always searching for free or low cost things to do on weekends.

I can add anyone to the blog to contribute posts. If you would like to write on the blog about your son's activities or accomplishments, please let me know and I'll be happy to add you as an author. It's very easy to make a post and I can show you how.

I have a few uniform items up for grabs. If you are needing anything to complete the uniform, please check with me before you buy it.

Below is the popcorn schedule taken from the Buffalo Trace site for your information.
