updated: 07/16/08
February - Blue & Gold Banquet
  • Coordinator: Robin Y. & Larry M. (Webelos I Dens)

Notes from 2008

  • Logistics (2008)
    • Saturday, February 16th, 11:30 AM – 3:00 PM
    • Harvester Christian Church (Youth Gym)
  • Preparation Required
    • Reserve the Church Gym - contact the Church office: It's cheaper if someone that is a member makes the reservation.
    • Update the “pack_calendar.htm” page on the Pack 30 Website.
    • Agenda -- Coordinate the agenda with the Cubmaster.
  • Support Materials
    • TBD
  • Supplies
    • Note – there are some supplies at the Scout Storage Shed.
    • Coordinate with the Cubmaster on what supplies are available vs. what needs to be purchased.
  • Costs
    • Total budget = $200.00 (Church Gym rental fee = $50.00 for Church Member, $100.00 for Non-Members)
  • Notes
    • Webelos I Den(s) are in charge of planning & hosting the event.
    • Webelos II Den(s) do the Opening Flag Ceremony, Webelos I Den(s) do the Closing Flag Ceremony
    • Having the kids sit on the floor up front and having activities to break up the "sitting time" was good -- do something similar next year.
    • Having the Table Decorations Contest by vote was good - keep it the same for next year. Each Den got one vote, but could not vote for themselves. Then have applause votes for the top three, to determine 1st-2nd-3rd.
    • The facility (Youth Gym) was very good - try to use it again next year.
    • Having a sound system was a big plus - try to have one next year.

Notes from 2007

  • Logistics (2007)
    • Saturday, February 10th, 11:30 AM – 3:00 PM
    • Chapel of the Cross Church (gym)
  • Preparation Required
    • Reserve the Church Gym - contact the Church office; they will ask if we know anyone at the Church:
      • Gary O. - Scout Master for Troop 30 goes there
      • Bill D. with Troop 30 goes there.
      • Doug W. with Den 6 goes there.
    • Update the “pack_calendar.htm” page on the Pack 30 Website.
    • Agenda -- Coordinate the agenda with the Cubmaster.

    • The facility (Chapel of the Cross) was very good - the only down side is they will not guarantee the reservation, so we are at risk of getting "bumped" if a church activity comes up.
    • Having a sound system was a big plus - try to have one next year (we used the Grant's in '07).
