Fabricius Named Leader of the Pack

Granby has a good thing going with the Cub Scouts. My nephew Luc Chauvin and his father Rob (GHS '83) are very active and they have a blast. They participate in all kinds of events ranging from hikes and camp outs to lighting the Christmas tree in front of Granby's town hall.

Cub Scouts Pack 34 was run well by Tammy Tucker Bibeau (GHS '81), but her son is moving up to Boy Scouts, and she is moving on. So the Pack has a new master Jay Fabricius (GHS '84).

One of his first duties as cub master was to be "pied" by those cub scouts who sold the most popcorn during a fundraiser to help pay for summer camp.

One of the pie throwers was Fabricius' son, Logan, 8, who sold $500 worth of products and got to throw two cream pies. The other two pie throwers were also from Den 6. They were Nathan Varney, 7, who sold $750 worth of popcorn items and got to throw four pies, and Andrew LeBlanc, 7, who sold $280 worth of popcorn products, and got to throw one pie.

Activities planned for the summer include: rain gutter regatta, kick ball every Tuesday night, sleepover with the Pawtucket Red Sox, monthly Pack hikes, Cub Scout summer camp, and camp out at Camp Fabricius, the Fabricius property
