Our theme is Pirates and the hard work of our Scouts will be displayed on the tables and throughout the gym for all to see. This event is open to family and friends of the Scouts. There will be a cake bake, cake auction, entertainment, food, and so much more. A meal ticket does not have to be purchased in order to attend. It is $10 for an adult plate and $8 for a child's plate. These plates will have a chicken leg and slices of brisket with two sides and condiments. There will be lemonade and tea and birthday cake for all. I will attach the order forms in another email later.
       The cake bake is for any Scouts who is desiring to bake and decorate a cake to be judged later. These cakes must be baked and decorated by the Scouts with the exception of Tigers who need a little more assistance. The categories for the cakes are: best scouting theme (past, present, and future), most patriotic theme, best special shaped cake, and most comical theme. I will be sending the rules in another email. Each Scout who participates will receive a patch and the awards are given to the top placers of each category.
