Harvest Hoedown Show'n'Sell

Jack and the boys from Pack 455 hit the floor selling popcorn at their school's PTO Harvest Hoedown event.

The party was blasting music, so they had to turn up their noise to 11!

Chess anyone?

One of the great things that the Popcorn Fundraiser helps pay for is our Pack's Fall and Spring camping trips.  We had over 60 people sign up for the Fall trip this year, and wouldn't you know it rained cats and dogs!  Did that stop Jack?  Nope, he just found himself a new hobby - chess.  The other parents and I were amazed to see a group of 6-10 year old boys crowded around the chess board, giving advice, or calling for "next game".  At least half of the boys involved had never even played before - they taught each other.  These kids will never cease to amaze me!


Jack didn't even stop to eat - he just chowed down while he played.  His new goal?  To beat his father...and I worry that it won't take long :(
