    9/11 Memorial Ceremony at Coyote Creek

    Hi Pack 1776 Families,

    Coyote Creek Elementary has invited Pack 1776 to participate in the opening flag ceremony for their 9/11 Memorial that they are planning to have at the school this coming Wednesday morning, September 11th.

    For those cubs who want to participate, you must arrive in front of the school office at 7:30am so that we can practice and know where we need to be before ceremony. If you don't see us, we will be practicing at the SunDial area behind the office. All scouts who participate must wear their full Class A uniforms. They can change into class B shirts or regular clothes after the ceremony, if they want.

    Please RSVP to me by Sunday evening so that I can get an estimate of interested cubs .

    Thanks.

    Best Regards,

    Yuji Yamada
    Committee Chair

    The Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program is an optional program for all Cub Scouts. Its purpose is to encourage the Scouts in learning new skills, or improving one they already posses. Cub Scouts can earn belt loops and pins in 25 academic areas and 28 different sports. Among them, the shooting sports loops and pins (Archery and BB-gun Shooting) can only be earned through Council-led events, under BSA trained supervision, and at a BSA facility range.

    Marksmanship Day is one of such Council events and the next one is coming up on October 19th. Registration can be made online at the Council website. Make sure to wear your Class A.

    And special this year, JOTA will be held on the same day at the same site! So you can attend two events in one trip. Detail and registration info will be coming soon.  Stay tuned!

    Note: Shooting sports belt loops can be used toward Wolf electives 20c and 20n, part of Bear requirement 23c and Bear electives 20.
