Founders Day 2008 – June 7th

Foxborough’s Founders Day 2008 is June 7th. The town will be celebrating its 230th birthday!

Now that it looks like the weatherman is finally cooperating, after several years of washouts, we need some help from you to make Pack 70’s participation a success.
 
We need volunteers for early morning duty. We have several tents, tables and games to set up to get our booth ready. This needs to early Saturday morning, so plan on being there at about 6:30. Please reply if you can help out with setup.
 
Schedule of events:
6:30 AM to 9:00 AM setup the Pack 70 tents at Booth Playground – we need all the help we can get.
 
9:00 to 9:30 the Parade assembles at 132 Central Street.
 
11:30 (just after the Parade) 12:30 – Webelos 1 Dens man the game booths!
 
12:30 to 1:30 – Wolves Dens man the game booths!
 
1:30 to 2:30 – Webelos 2 Dens man the game booths!
 
2:30 to 3:30 – Bears and Webelos 1 man the game booths and shut down for the day.

 
Steve Shilcusky and Doug Whitney and all of Den 4 are the leads on this project. I know the leaders have been working hard to make this happen. PLEASE, the times for booth assignments are by Den. Be sure you attend and help out. If you don’t then it falls on someone else to fill in for you and stay extra hours. That is just not the Scout way.
 
The parade. This is a chance for your Scouts to take part in a great tradition. Please be at the parking lot at 132 Central St (across from the Mobil) by 9:30 AM. Any parents who want to march are welcome, but all Scouts are expected. It is a fun and exciting event for them and will mean Many good photo ops. IF you, as parents, do not march, then line the parade route and take pictures. These are scrapbook memories, to be sure.
 
FINALLY, this is all meant to be fun, and it always has been. Working together, laughing together and pulling together as a team is such a big part of the Cub Scout experience. I hope you all have schedules that allow you to participate in this wonderful day.
 
Thank you.
 
Yours In Scouting,
