MALL EXPO FOR SCOUTS
|
|
| What: |
Cub Scout
Packs and Boy Scout Troops in the Horseshoe Trail District set up
booths in an annual, week-long exposition at the Lebanon Valley
Mall. Special guests, exhibits, demonstrations, and Pinewood
Derby races are present all week. On the last night, the show
culminates with an awards ceremony on the stage in front of
Boscovs.
Click here for general Mall Expo information.
All Pack 460 dens help build our booth. Stay tuned for
information about building responsibilities.
After the Mall Expo is over,
and the booths are removed, the Webelos and Boy Scouts may sleep
overnight, in the mall, if they are pre-registered. If you wish
to sleep overnight, inform both your den leader and Jason Bewley
before Tuesday of the expo, since Jason needs to register all
scouts with the Mall Expo staff before Thursday. |

The Mall Expo fosters all 10 Cub Scout purposes:
Character Development, Spiritual Growth, Good Citizenship,
Sportsmanship and Fitness, Family Understanding, Respectful
Relationships, Personal Achievement, Friendly Service, Fun and
Adventure, and Preparation for Boy Scouts!
Scouts participating in
the Mall Expo are awarded a patch at a later pack meeting. |

| What to Bring: |
Scouts may bring their Pinewood Derby cars to race.
See Mall
Expo information for race details.
For 2013, since the
theme is "Going Green," all packs are encouraged to bring
recyclable cans to fill their respective recycling bin as part of
a contest to see which pack can collect the most cans.
Refreshments are not provided.
Mall stores open as typical, with some scout discounts.
Webelos who sleep over on Friday night may discuss details with
your den leader or Jason Bewley. |
