Monday, May 26 at 9am. Goodwives Shopping Center.
Pack 161 will meet in lane 3 of Goodwives - this appears on the map (attached) to be somewhere between Stop n Shop and the wine store. On the map, we are labeled as "CUBS". Please read directions for very important instructions on parking and drop off rules. You will NOT be able to park in Goodwives - only in the areas nearby. Boys must be in uniform - please no sports shorts/pants or jeans. Parents can walk with their scouts, but not required as Pack/Den leadership will be there as well. The length of the parade is 1.25 miles - so make sure your scout wears comfortable shoes!
