Cub Carnival

Ok so the week that Pack 8 attends Cub Carnival is here.  I know you all are itching for information so I'm going to help you.

Let's start with Friday:  Between the hours of 4:00pm and 6:30pm I (Craig, Cub Master) and Chris

Fain will have the trailer beside the Pumpkin Patch. Bring your camping items that you want hauled down to the campsite.  This should not include any clothing or food items. You need to bring those yourself.  Keep it light as it can be a hike into the campsite.  We can talk about this as you drop your gear off.

Saturday: You need to locate the parking area at Camp Tuk.  Use the this LINK (Directions to Tuk) to open a Google Map that has directions from St. James UMC to Camp Tuk.  There will be someone in the parking lot to instruct you as to which campsite we are located at.  I will have the trailer there before High Noon!

All the other information you may want to know that we have been given is listed below.  If you want to fish you will have to bring your own gear. Council will provide bait (worms).
