For returning Cub Scouts the membership cost for 2005-2006 will be $55 for Cubs. Please make a check out to "Pack 393" and give it to your den leader at our September 12 Pack meeting. If your son needs a new Pack t-shirt or an adult would like to purchase an adult-sized pack tee, it will be an additional $5 per tee (please provide size to your den leader also). Tee shirts are planned to be distributed at the October Pack meeting.

Our September 12 meeting should be lots of fun. Prepare for loud popping noises and listen to Brian Peterson, the weather man from ABC 33/40, tell the boys about WEATHER. (PS-It might snow....)
