 What the Entire Pack is "Doing" Together... |
Pack News
Update on upcoming events
We had to alter some of the upcoming events due to the spike in COVID cases, request from Auburn City Schools to limit extra curricular activities, AUMC not open and some guidance from local scouting units. The pinewood derby workshop and race have been pushed out to mid to late March. The next event will be an outdoor event (geocache) Feb 6 with the location and time TBD. This will be a social distance event. We are finalizing the spring trip. Most locations are still limiting space and activities. With that being said, we are going to have a family campout for the Pack 29 spring trip in the Auburn/Opelika area with date TBD. Your den leader will be reaching out to you about upcoming den events. They will have your pinewood derby cars. Extra cars can be purchased for $5. There is the Outlaw race where the only rule is that there are no rules. This is an opportunity for the parents or siblings to build a car and race for fun. Past Pack members are welcome to come and race too. Your den leadership will also have your scouts prize for selling popcorn. Most of the prizes were handed out at the drive in movie in December but there is a few items that were not handed out. |
