Cabin Campout - Beaumont Camp.
Announcement & information available in the Events
section of Publications
Wow! Did we luck out on the weather? Seemed like a lot longer
than 40 hours: tons of fish caught, lots of hiking and playing in the
woods, shooting sports was great, super food.
Some saw the Space Station Saturday but it wasn't
over us for the next pass - it went over the US in a path from around New
Orleans to Seatle. Check the schedule for more sightings this week

Independence Fireworks
Concession results are in!
Cash proceeds $416 Less seed
money (40) Less cost of pretzels and funnel cakes (75) Net income from event $301
Thanks for everyone's efforts!
Note: I found last
year's records. Cash proceeds $411 less seed money (48) Less cost of
food (91.06) Net Income $272. We raised prices, sold less,
made a little more. I think our location cost us some sales compared
to last year but it might have been a pricing issue as well. |

Monday, Memorial
Day Parade.
Between 9 and 9:30 a.m. Meet at the "band stand" in
beautiful downtown Independence to gather and attend the service at
the memorial on the square.
At about 9:30, March to the cemetery at the corner of Rockside
and Rt. 21. Participate in the memorial service.
Walk back or get picked-up - probably stopping for a hot dog in the
Drug Mart parking lot (Benefit IHS Band).
Wear your uniforms with your new Neckerchief. Bring your cameras. Each
scout carries a flag during the parade. If you will be dropping a scout
before the parade, plan to pick up your scout(s) at either the cemetery or
Drug Mart afterwards but the leaders must know before the parade starts. |

Great Pack Meeting. Lots of
activity and lots of quality time with scouts and adults alike.
A BIG "Thank You!" to Brendan O's mom
for all the hard work that went into embroidering our "Bragging
shirts" and to Matt B's dad for getting 6 computers for us!
Say thanks to the City of Brecksville when you get a chance - they donated
the other computers.
And a Tasty "Thank You" to Matt S's mom
for lots of tremendous snacks and drinks! What a party it was with
Jimmy N's HP Birthday cake too!

Matt (Web 4) & Mr. Behringer have obtained 6 computers
for us! Looking good so far. We'll have a VCR to take apart
too.
City of Brecksville donated some computers too.
Meeting Agenda is
Here.

| Mar. 22 |
We plan to have a "What's inside a
computer" session at the Pack mtg. where the scouts disassemble
computers. I've got leads on 4 systems from the City of
Brecksville so far but we could use about 8 more. Dig through your
basements and ask people or companies you know. VCR's and other
electronic devices are cool too but nothing with "TV type
screens" or large capacitors (Call Cliff if you want to check.)
This is great fun for the scouts. They get
to use tools, they get to take something apart, and they get to keep some
cool "parts". We help name the parts and explain what
the parts do so there's a learning element in this too.
Donated equipment guidelines:
- Working condition or not.
- No "monitors" please but if you must
accept them from others in order to get a donation, we can handle
proper disposal.
- We can give donors acknowledgement letters so
that they can remove the items from inventory and complete accounting
transactions involving charitable donations. We are
officially part of St. Michael Parish and will be accepting items on
their behalf for tax purposes.
- We can provide affidavits that the hard drives
have been rendered unusable. In some cases, that's what makes
the donation worthwhile for the donor company. It saves them the
expense of destroying the hard drives or paying someone to erase the
drives.
