Service project - art supply drive for preston's league

5/8/2019

 

Art supply drive for Preston's league!

Ending the Year with a Great Service Project for Preston's League!!!
As our final Pack activity of the year we will be doing a service project collection of art supplies and money for Preston's League.
Preston's League is a 501 C-3 charitable organization committed to providing basic necessities to patients and their families through a weekly wish list program within the Duke Pediatric Bone Marrow Department. This organization was created by The Winslows' in memory of their son, Preston, who passed away following a long battle fighting Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
One of the best things that can be shared with the patients and their families are art supplies because they provide not only a source of entertainment and creativity while hospitalized, but an invaluable, cherished keepsake to families of their child's art.
Please help us collect as much as we can to support this great cause! You can bring items to the next den meeting (look for the large collection box!), bring them to the end of the year celebration or you can feel free to bring items by my house 217 Enstone Court Hillsborough. Any questions just ask! 
Thanks so much for your support!​

Some of the most useful items for the patients are as follows:
  • canvases - varying sizes
  • crayons
  • colored pencils
  • washable paint
  • paint brushes
  • watercolor paints
  • paint pallettes
  • heavy duty drawing pads
and of course monetary donations are welcomed - these go directly to the organization to assist with filling families specific wish list needs
More information about the group can be found at www.prestonsleague.org
**The group is also having a fundraiser Mother's Day Tea on Saturday May 11th from 12:30-2:30PM at Croasdaile Country Club. Tickets are $30 per person. There is menu information and more details on their website or you can contact the group at the following email to book tickets prestonsleague.org@gmail.com

Historic Hillsborough Half Marathon and 5K

9/27/2018

 
The Historic Hillsborough Half Marathon and 5K is Sunday, October 7th.  This is the Sunday of our Pack 438 Fall Camporee.  We need volunteers (adults and scouts) to join us in supporting the race by acting as starting gate attendants and also by passing out medals and trophies at the finish line.  

Sign up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10c0a4aabac23a4f94-historic

Pack 438 sent several volunteers last year and we had a great time despite the early morning hours.  The race participants and the Hillsborough Running Club staff really appreciated our being a part of the event.  This is a great way for Pack 438 to give back to our community.
We need volunteers in uniform to meet at the Eno River Farmer's Market on Margaret Lane in downtown Hillsborough at 6:30 am on Sunday, October 7th.  This is directly behind the courthouse and Orange County Sheriff's office.  The race starts at 7:00 am.  The 5 K finishers will start coming in before 7:30.  The half marathon finishers will start coming across the finish line sometime around 8:30 am or thereafter.
