Interested individuals may contact me (Geoff Green) directly. (See below) 2) We have Centennial OA Nutcrackers!!! 3) Unit Leaders/Committee Chairs - We are having a special program, similar to an Angel Tree, called an Ethan Tree. Unit Leaders and Commissioners, not the parents, will provide us with information for a few kids in your unit needing some help with Uniforming/Scouting needs. The Ethan cards will hang on our tree and offer others the opportunity to help out some of our Scouts. This is open to Packs, Troops and Crews.

Ask your Cubs to bring a friend. Bring some pack information for the parents to share while the kids are skating. Collect $28 for the kids to join the fun before holidays. Turn them in with your recharter. Applications and school night rockets will be provided by council for the new recruits. Remember that new youth bring new parents… and what unit doesn’t need a Parent Coordinator or Pack Trainer for 2016? November is “Invite a friend to Join Cub Scouts” month. In order to create excitement for getting new friends to join your Cub Scout Pack, the Central Florida Council, Boy Scouts of America will provide Pinewood Derby car kits for each registered Cub Scout in your Pack if you can recruit the most new Cubs during the month of November.
