Cub Pack Meeting

CUB SCOUT TWILIGHT CAMP at Blanket Creek - Saturday October 24th, 2009 4PM - 8PM

We are very excited about the Camp/Pack Meeting on Saturday night!! Below are some details and any questions can be answered at tonight's meeting if needed.

The activity on Saturday will help the boys achieve their Outdoor Pack Award - something they worked on a lot over the summer. We will be meeting at Blanket Creek park at 4PM. Please make note that ALL family members are invited to participate!

BLANKET CREEK
2125 Sixes Rd.
Canton, GA 30114

(Click on the "BLANKET CREEK" link above for more park information and directions)

We plan on riding on one of the smaller, easier trails if the weather permits so please bring your bikes AND helmets. You will not be able to ride without a helmet.

We also want to demonstrate putting up tents so if you have one please bring it!

We will also be presenting the boys with any awards/badges/loops that have been earned. Please remember to have your Cub take his book tonight so we can make sure we have all their achievements recorded.

Hot dogs and marshmallows will be available for the Cubs to cook for their families over an open fire to help them finish their requirements for the award.

Permission slips are needed for this activity since we are not meeting at the building. You can pick one up tonight or fill one out online from the Primary Blog.

Primary Program

We are so excited that our Primary Program is coming up this month. The theme for Primary this year has been "My Eternal Family." It has been wonderful for the children to share ways they are contributing to their families and building up the kingdom of God. They can't wait to share what they have learned with the Ward.

The Primary Program will be held on October 25 during Sacrament Meeting. Each child will have an opportunity to participate in the Program and will be given a special part. The children will also be singing Primary songs that they have been practicing throughout the year.

This Sunday (Oct 11) and next Sunday (Oct 18) the children will be practicing for the Program during the second and third hours of church. We will be giving each child a piece of paper with their part for the Program on it. We encourage all parents to help their child memorize the part. We would also love for the children to practice the Primary songs. Family Night would be a great time for them to review the songs and even teach them to you. Below are the songs we will be singing in the Program:

I Lived in Heaven (CS,4)

How Firm a Foundation (Hymn #85 - verses 1 and 3)

My Eternal Family (refer to the CD given to each child at the beginning of the year)

Baptism (CS, 100)

Seek the Lord Early (CS 108)

Families can be Together Forever (CS 188)

I will Follow God's Plan (CS 164)

Love is Spoken Here (CS 190)

We are so proud of all our Primary children. They are wonderful examples to us! Thanks for all your help and encouragement!
