The Pack 86 Pinewood Derby will be Saturday, February 11 at Newcastle Bible Church.  The schedule will be announced soon.  There will be two (2) Tune & Build workshops, Tuesday January 24, and Tuesday January 31. These will both be held at Wiegand Liners here in Mackinaw, beginning at 6:30 PM.  This is a great opportunity to start building your car and getting help if you need it.  We will have tools available, along with books of sample designs, available for your use. 

Please take a moment to check out all the photos of our 16 or so boys (and dads) at the Cub Scout Yukon!!  See the Photo Albums link on the Menu.<

Please come celebrate Scout Sunday by attending one of the New Castle Bible Chuch services at 8:15 or 10:45. New Castle is our Charter Organization, without them we would not exist! Please wear your full Cub Scout uniform and look your best - take this opportunity to show the folks at New Castle what great kid's they're supporting!  (signup on the pack website if you're coming please!)  If you can't come to New Castle on Sunday, please attend the church of your choice and wear your uniform. Most churches recognize Scout Sunday every year. If not, and they see you in uniform, tell them all about it!! You'll find more information here: http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Scout_Sunday

Don't Miss This Month's Roundtable!  The district roundtable is the second Thursday of the month at 6:30 PM at the Morton Christian Church, 1001 S. 4th Street in Morton.
