Raingutter Regatta!

IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT… or maybe a beautiful Saturday morning. Accounts vary. One certainty is that a monumental contest of skill and craftsmanship occurred.  The parking lot of the Crofton Swim and Tennis Club by the dumpster has not seen such a contest since about this time last year.

Fourteen carefully crafted boats lined up to compete. The boats showed their owner's passion for sailing, America, skateboards, primary colors, minimalism and rain gutters.

Did we mention these boats are boy-breath powered? There may have been some light-headedness, but we are pleased to report no injuries occurred.



Good sportsmanship abounded

The three winners were Jackson S. (1st), Daniel E. (2nd) and Charles O. (3rd). (in order below)
 

Overall, we had lots of fun and hope you can make it next year!

Join Scouting Night

Pack 115 is holding “Join Scouting” night on September 2nd, 2014 at Crofton Woods Elementary School cafeteria at 7:15pm. This will be starting just after Back-To-School night ends. It’s a wonderful opportunity for all boys in grades 1-5 to learn about what cub scouting is all about.

Our Key Leaders will be there to answer any questions that you may have. The annual registration fee is nominal....much cheaper than registering for sports! (And the nicest part is that your son can do both!) Another great thing about Scouting is that you make it work around your schedule; he doesn’t have to be at everything to be a member. Take a look at our website for all our exciting Pack activities. For the awesome additional programs that our council offers, visit the Baltimore Area Council’s website.

Come check us out! We are even going to have some snacks on hand for our rally! See you there.

P.S. If you are interested in Scouting, but live outside our community, please visit BeAScout.org or call the Council office at 443- 573-2500 for information about Packs in your area.
