Ahoy Scouts -It's almost time for the annual Raingutter Regatta! Do want to set sail with us?
Pack 731's Raingutter Regatta will be held on the morning of Saturday, August 9, 2008, behind the Prince of Peace Church in the street on Ardsley Place. (Note that this is a week earlier than previous years, so that it will *not* conflict with the Crofton Shootout soccer tournament.) Practice runs will begin at 9:00a.m. and the double-elimination races will begin at approximately 9:30a.m.
Making a Raingutter Regatta boat is easy - much easier than a Pinewood Derby car. The Pack delivers the official boat kit to your door. You just secure the sail and decorate your boat - no woodworking required! Then the Scouts blow their boats down gutters filled with water for a quick and fun event. All Scouts will receive participation ribbons, and the top three finishers will get medals. Certificates will also be awarded for boat design and creativity.
If you want to participate, please reply to Molly Weems at committeechair@croftonpack731.org no later than Wednesday, July 29. Be sure to include the Scout's name and address so we can deliver your boat kit. If you do not want to participate, please tell that to Molly Weems so she won't bother you with reminder notes.
We'll have a great time sailing the Seven Seas, so be sure to reply ASAP. Hope to see you at the Regatta!
