Council Account-$21.02
Pay Pal Account-$58.30
Pack Net Worth-
Numbers will change, Rebecca will be moving money into Council Account to cover awards and camp deposit. Deposit was made for Blue and Gold.

COR REPORT: (Wayne)
Nothing to report, we were not at the Church this month.

CUB MASTER’S REPORT: (Earl)
Due to the economy and the fact the food banks are so low on food after the holidays, Earl would like to start a Den size ‘Scouting for Food’ as a responsibility for monthly Pack meetings. Dens may choose to donate to the church or to a food bank of their choice.

Wood Badge- There is enough for two leaders to get Wood Badge Certified. It is two long weekends and then goals need to be met. Great opportunity as a leader, will benefit in all aspects of your life. Earl is available for further discussion.
