Hey everyone!
Well, we had a GREAT turn-out for the first media outing at the radio station: TEN Tigers were spotted! Everyone had a great time, learned a lot, and was on their best behavior. We’re proud of all of you; you really represented the Cub Scouts well and made a positive impression on those that we met.
If you missed the radio outing, don’t fret; we have another media opportunity on Tuesday, November 27th at 5:30 located at NBC 13 TV studios on 1732 Valley View Drive in Birmingham. Our point of contact is Ms. Isen, and she promises to give us a great tour of the station. Don’t hold your breath (please!), but we may even get a chance to be on TV briefly!
Because we MAY be on TV, all scouts MUST be in Class-A uniform WITH hat and neckerchief.
We need all parents who WILL be coming to this event to email either of us by Friday, November 23rd at 12:00PM (noon), telling us how many people they will be bringing. We need to give the people at the station as close of a head count as possible, so please make sure if you say you’ll be there, you and your son will be. This opportunity is open to ALL tigers, even those that were at the radio station. Plan to be done around 6:30PM.
We also have a Den Meeting on Monday, November 26 at 6:30 at the church. Uniform is Pack 93 t-shirts. Anthony will be there around 6:00PM if anyone has questions or needs help with completing any requirements. We’ll be finishing up the den requirements for the Tiger Badge (Flag ceremony, Food pyramid, and tell it like it isn’t). Additionally, we’ll be talking about the weather in order to earn the Weather Belt Loop (which includes the Water Cycle), so don’t forget to do your weather project as outlined here:

All parents should bring their boy’s Tiger Cub Handbook so that we can sign off on the things that your son has accomplished. We would like to see as many Tiger Cubs get their Tiger Badge during the December 3rd Pack meeting as possible. It will be the last chance before the New Year and our next Pack Meeting on January 7th, 2013. So take a look over your son’s Tiger Cub Handbook and see what he has left to do. Most of the requirements are VERY easy and don’t take a lot of time at all.
Take some time this holiday weekend to go over the Food Pyramid and Water Cycle with your son. It will make the presentation on Monday go a lot faster.
We look forward to seeing everyone this coming Monday for some fun and learning! Until then, take care, and have a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!
