June Advancement Meeting
Potluck Dinner, Raingutter Regatta, Award Ceremony, and Parents’ Meeting.
Blue and Gold Banquet
5:45 – 6:30 Dinner
6:30 – 7:00 Magic Show
7:15 – 8:00 Crossover Ceremony
To have the maximum engagement with the magic show, we ask that scouts eat ahead of the 6:30 time so that they can be focused on the show instead of eating or making a mess.
Dinner will be a potluck, and the pack will be providing pizza, lemonade, and water. We ask that each family sign up to bring a dessert or side dish to share (please also indicate how many people from your family are attending). The signup can be found at: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/508094AA5AE29A5F49-54179842-pack#/
Looking forward to enjoying an evening of magic and recognizing our AOL scouts as they continue their journey to the next levels of scouting.
