Great Idea!
A Cub Scout Volunteer recently
shared this Pack activity with
us and we wanted to pass it
along:
I am with Cub Pack 238 in
Welcome and had a tidbit of
info that I thought may be of
interest in your newsletter.
We recently went to GameStop
in Lexington to work on the
video game belt loop &
pin. The store was crazy excited to have the boys there
and even made up goody bags
for them.
The cubs were
hanging on every word the
staff said.
The managers
talked with them for about 30
minutes about the importance
of game ratings, store return
policies and the difference between game systems.
The store manager, Thommy
Jones, wanted our Council to
know that other stores are dying to have Scout groups visit
them as well. His district manager was thrilled that there
was an achievement like this
that GameStop could help
Scouts earn.
If you need more info.,
Thommy’s number is 336‐249‐
3966.
