Cake Bake Pack Meeting April 24

The cake bake is an opportunity for each Scout (Tiger through Webelos) to participate in a fun baking activity with his parent. All money raised from this auction will go to the Verona Food Pantry.

General Rules
1) Cakes must be at the meeting at 6:30 pm, on the April 24th Pack meeting at Glacier's Edge
2) Cakes must be baked by a boy and parent (mother, father, grandmother grandfather, sister, brother.)
3) Non-scout siblings may bake and bring a cake if they wish.
4) Completely store-bought cakes are not permitted.
5) Cake mixes and icing mixes may be used.
6) Creation must be edible.
7) Cakes should be placed on a tray or cardboard foundation that can be given away with the cake.
8) All cakes should have a title or theme shown on a card submitted with the cake along with the baker's name.
9) Tickets will be sold for $ .50 each. Scouts bid for a cake by depositing tickets with their name written on the back into the cup for the cake. Placing more tickets in the cup increases the scout's chance of winning.
10) A drawing for the cakes will take place and the baler/artist will be allowed to draw for the winning ticket.
11) Each scout (or sibling) may take home only one cake or the first cake that they win.

Parents, please remind your kids that the object of this is to have fun together while raising money for the Food Pantry. We usually have more scouts than cakes and siblings are allowed to bid for cakes, too. This means that it IS possible that you might go home without a cake. Please prepare your scout for that possibility and remind him that a successful cake is one that brings in lots of tickets.
