Memorial Day Activites Continue

A big thank you to everyone who came out this morning for Operation Flag at Union Cemetery. We had a great turnout and the rain held off.  I overheard great comments from some of the scouts including things like, "We can't miss any veteran so we need to double check rows." And "I like reading all the headstones. It's so interesting!" 


Don't forget about the Memorial Day Parade in Worthington this Monday.  The weather is supposed to be good, so if you're in town, it will be a great morning to walk.

Cub Scout Pack 74 will meet at Hartford Park on North Morning St at around 9:30am. We are Staging Number 221, but Marching number 97, which is almost last. We'll be standing there for a while in the staging area. Patrick Long might bring a frisbee and a football or something to keep scouts occupied while we wait. Please note that streets to the east and south will be closed, so consult the street closings map from Patrick's email when you make your arrival plan.

WEAR YOUR FULL UNIFORM. Or as close as you can make it. Class A shirts. Dark blue pants or shorts (if not, green or khaki, jeans as last resort). Find your scout hat. If you want to wear the new kit that you received at the campout, please do so. And don't forget your sunscreen!

Finally, I wanted to take a moment to remind everyone about the Honor Flight we will be greeting on June 10th. You'll see more detailed information about this event next week, but since we have veterans and fallen soldiers on our minds this weekend, why not take the time to make some thank you cards for the veterans we will be greeting.  There are 86 veterans on the flight, so we need lots of cards!! Please make sure to include Pack 74 in the signature.

PLEASE DROP YOUR CARDS OFF AT OVERBROOK CHURCH (parking lot) ON JUNE 5th BETWEEN 7-8 PM!!

Have a great holiday weekend!
