| Reach for
the Skies! This year, for the first time, each Cub Scout in
Pack 33 will have the chance to build and launch his own rocket! Rockets
have been handed out to all den leaders for distribution to their dens.
Rockets can be built as a den or individually. We will be launching the
rockets together on Sun, May 22 at 11:30am. We have reserved the area
right behind the VFW at Flint Park to do the
launch. Depending on the showing we will either set up one launch pad or two
and stagger the launches to get done a fairly quick pace.
We'll also need some parent participation and help running rockets over to
the launch pad area.
