What a Great Pinewood Derby!
ons of fun was had by scouts and parents yesterday at the pinewood derby! I would like to thank all the people that helped make yesterday's event so successful, which I think was everyone in attendance. A special thanks to Ron King who took time out of his schedule to help us with this event, Ron made many upgrades to the system that allowed us to watch the cars in slow motion. Congratulations to our winners! Ty Spangler, Jarret Waldron, Addison Workman & Nate Aguilar and to our Outlaw winners Brooklyn Spangler, Emily Workman and Andy Klischer.

This week the Wolves will not meet at the church, they will meet at the Spring Friends Meeting Church at 3323 E Old Greensboro Hwy at the intersection of Stockard Road. This is critical for most Wolves to complete their Duty to God Adventure Loop.

Great day for Hike! We had 5 scouts and families show up yesterday for a 3.5 mile hike at Johnston Mill Park. If you have never hiked this park, it is really a great place for a hike. It was dry, and we crossed the New Hope creek several times and they have different styles of benches that are dedicated in memory of people and our scouts took time to read and sit at each one.

This Tuesday we will have our parents' meeting starting at 6PM. We will be discussing the Pinewood Derby, camp cards, camping options, next pack meeting and rank advancement.
​
The pinewood derby is this weekend. Friday night will be practice from 6-8pm and we will be setting up the track at 6PM, so if you are just coming to practice the cars, plan to arrive at 6:30 if you are coming to help, please arrive by 6PM. Remember only scouts that participated in Scouting for Food are allowed to practice their cars. The derby will be Saturday from 8-Noon. It will take around 1 hour to get everyone checked in so please be patient with our check-in process. Remember we need everyone to provide snacks, and also remember food and drinks are not allowed on the gym floor but must stay in the snack area.
 
We have just added a new camping trip opportunity May 6-8 at Cedarock Park. The cost is $15 per person if you are camping both nights and $10 if you are just camping Saturday and $5 extra per person if you want to fish. With the new Cub Scout program, camping is a requirement to earn rank badge, so we wanted to give each scout this opportunity. This will be the last time that camping will be offered before the scouting year ends on June 1. Our monthly hike will be conducted while at Cedarock Park during this camping event. Yours in Scouting, Lisa
