 Cub Master Report: (Robert)

1. The upcoming Pow Wow will be on Oct 25^th. Babysitting is available. Let�s try to carpool!
2. November�s theme is: Pilgrims of Plymouth Rock.
3. Diane is working on current phone lists. Let�s use them and keep in touch with everyone.
4. Let�s start a Used Uniform Closet! If you have any old uniforms that are still in good shape- donate them. Uniforms can become costly and this is a great way to pass on clothes and help other boys.

3. Den dues � There is two ways to handle the den dues. 1) The den leader keeps the dues, records expenses and keeps receipts or 2) the den leader turns the dues over to the treasurer (JoLean) and would then turn in receipts for reimbursement. Either way is acceptable
