PACK DUES:
It is time for us to collect dues, but there are a few changes we need to make you aware of. Scouting America National are now paid online, along with Scouting Life magazine subscriptions. You are now responsible for paying and maintaining your membership fees with Scouting America. Our Pack fees will not increase this year. They are $30.00 for all Scouts, except Webelos and AOLs, they are $35.00.

Dues need to be paid (received) on or before December 18. If for some reason you have an issue paying your dues, please contact the Cubmaster so that other arrangements can be made to help get them paid. Remember there is a $5.00 discount per scout / frontier for families with more than one scout or frontier in any of our Family of Scouting programs. You may pay your dues at any Den or Pack meeting. Please make checks payable to Pack 141.

PACK CLASS B UNIFORMS (SHIRTS and HOODIES):
This is the last opportunity for those who are interested in getting a Troop t-shirt to get one. The current shirts are what is called a 50/50-blend, which is lightweight, very comfortable fabric. The cost of the shirts, based on the current total number of shirts that we order.

We have been taking orders from those who are interested in getting Pack shirts and hoodies. Every shirt and hoodie that we order counts toward the total number, however, there is a catch. Before we place an order, you must pay for your shirt or we will not be able to order one for you. For pricing information, please contact our pack Leadership. The order will be placed mid-December. So, if you want one, please place your order and make your checks payable to Pack 141.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY:
It is time for bad weather to come. Just remember that all Scouting / Frontiering functions are canceled if the weather does not support the activity. If school is canceled because of weather the day of a den meeting or Pack meeting, so will that meeting be canceled. Because of the planning involved in the Red, White, Blue and Gold Banquet and the Pinewood Derby, they will not be canceled except for extreme bad weather.

UNIFORMS:
Just a reminder that Class A uniforms are required for all our scout and are to be worn in their entirety to all scouting functions unless otherwise noted. For more information about Scout uniforms, see the “Uniforms” page under the “About” tab on the main menu bar. For those who have just joined, we understand that uniforms are purchased at the Scout Store in Roanoke and that it may not be convenient for you to travel there before the first scouting function. So, there is no rush for you to go out and purchase one today. However, please do not let your lack of not having a uniform prevent you from coming to any of our meetings, events, or functions.

FAMILY OF SCOUTING PROGAM:
In case you did not know, Christiansburg Presbyterian Church (CPC) offers a Family of Scouting program that consist of Boy Scout Troop 141 (11-18 years old), Cub Scout Pack 141 (5-10 years old), and Frontier Girls Troop 377 (3-18 years old and mothers can play too). Most of you are aware of the BSA scouting programs, but what is Frontier Girls? Our Frontier Girls Troop 377 was started in January 2016 as an alternative scouting-type program for the highly active and spirited young girls who wanted to experience a program that mirrored one that many of their brothers, who had joined the BSA scouting program experienced. Because the “Frontier Girls” program itself permits a seamless integration with the local BSA programs, the program is the perfect complement to the existing BSA scouting programs already sponsored by CPC, but one that would cater specifically to the young girls in the community. If you have family members or friends that you think would be interested in any of our Family of Scouting programs, please share this information with them. We each have websites as well as Facebook pages. Should they have any questions, they can always contact us.

WE NEED YOUR HELP:
It is “Not Too Late For Scouting” and we could use your help spreading the word. If you know of a young boy who would benefit from the Scouting program, please invite the entire family to your next Den meeting or to our next Pack meeting.

This would a great way for them to see firsthand what the Scouting program and our Pack are all about. Please share this information with your family and friends because they may know someone who could benefit from these great programs. If they have any questions before the meeting, please have them to contact our Cubmaster. Once again, we thank you for your help.

WEBSITE UPDATES:
It has been a few years since our new website rolled out and became live. Since that time, our website team has been diligently working to build a more user-friendly website that will grant access to information about our Pack as well as updates and news from our Pack. Most websites have what is referred to as “a site map,” which is very similar to the “table of content” one finds at the beginning of a book. This table of content lists the pages of the particular website with active links. This map is designed to help visitors to easily navigate through the website and help visitors easily find the exact content they are looking for on the website. While our site continues to be a “work-in-progress,” we believe this addition will be beneficial to all who visit. You can find our “Site Map” under under the “About” tab on the main menu bar.

EVENTS FROM THE COUNCIL:

We also have our Pack calendar on our website on our “Calendar” page under the “Schedules” tab on the main menu bar.

Please know that we do not practice “tagging” in the images, photos, and/or pictures that we post to any of our social media sites and we strongly discourage the practice for privacy reasons as well as an overall general security standpoint. Every effort has been made to completely disable this feature on the social media sites that we use so that others cannot “tag” anyone in any of our images, photos, and/or pictures, however we make no guarantees, either expressly or implied. If you, as a parent or guardian would like to “opt out” of having images, photos, and/or pictures of your son or any members of your family published/posted on either of social media sites, please submit a signed and dated written request to the Cubmaster stating,

“I do not grant Pack 141 or any of the organization’s registered leaders permission to publish/post any images, photos, and/or pictures on any Pack 141 social media sites that can clearly identify my son or any members of my family to the general public.”

PERSONAL HEALTH AND MEDICAL FORM:
Every Scout in the pack is required to have a Personal Health And Medical form for 2025 - 2026 on file. Please make sure that you get one to your Den Leaders. For a copy of the form, click HERE.
