HMS Cubs:
Welcome to the third day,
What does a cow say, when its wanting hay?
Add a companion along the way—
Join the two as one, and follow the crowd,
To the spot where sweetness is spoken out loud.
Somewhere outside Crimson Cubby sits alone,
go capture a picture on your cell phone.
Remember to send the picture to hoquiamcubclub@gmail.com, or if you are having issues with that address you can send to Mr. Cook at dcook@hoquiam.net, and he will get it to the Cub Club. Please make sure you send with your name and grade in the email. You have all day Wednesday to get there, remember this isn’t a race.

Day 2 of your quest dawns bright and clear
Your Quest for Crimson Cubby now take you here.
Over the River, across from the Arches of Gold,
Is a place of training, for those who are bold.
Avoid the pools, the lobby, and don’t go to the court,
Your quest is outside, your search will be short.
Good Luck, and remember send your pictures to hoquiamcubclub@gmail.com, or dcook@hoquiam.net. Again it isn’t a race, and you have all day to find the Crimson Cubby.

Okay...the first clue should be out to student emails...I'm going to put them here too, just in case:
In the land of timber, there is a quiet space,
That houses shelves of knowledge in which to bury your face.
If boredom overtakes you, and adventure is what you need,
This place can transport you anywhere, all you need do, is read.
Your journey will take you outside, no need to go inside
Crimson Cubby is out there somewhere, doing his best to try and hide.
For today’s clue, a picture of yourself with Crimson Cubby, AND a picture of the building are needed.

Please make sure you send with your name and grade in the email. You have all day Monday to get there, remember this isn’t a race.

The clue to the first location drops at 8:00 a.m. on Monday. This is NOT a RACE...its a lottery. Here is how it works:
1. At 8:00 a.m. each morning this week (Monday-Friday) you will have a clue emailed to you on your school email. The clue will be some sort of riddle concocted by Mr. Cook in between all of the chores Mrs. Cook is having him do…
2. The Clue will, once solved, take you to a location within Hoquiam. You will need a phone to take a picture, and that is it.
3. When you solve the clue, you have THAT DAY to go to the location. Somewhere in or around the location is a picture of a crimson bear. Take a picturre with it, or of it.
4. Send the picture to hoquiamcubclub@gmail.com with your name and grade in the text. You can also send it to dcook@hoquiam.net, and I will pass it along to the Cub Club.
5. Its one site per day, no purchase of anything at each location is needed, once you have your picture/selfie, and you’ve sent it off...you are done for that day. You get one entry per correct picture sent in for the raffle drawing. If you make all five days that is five chances. If you miss a day, its okay, it just cost you the one chance.
6. Please make sure that selfies or pictures are appropriate. Inappropriate content will not be accepted.
Tune in at 8:00 a.m.!

We will send details out to them by email. There are prizes! Please check out the flyer attached for more information, and the first clue drops MONDAY at 8:00 a.m., with an additional clue each day through Friday.
Another Soccer related correction to the Week at a Glance:
Soccer does NOT have a match today at Rochester. They have practice today and play Tuesday and Thursday of this week. Sorry for the confusion.

HMS Families-There is one error (that I know of so far) in the Week at a Glance for this week...Thursday, Soccer is HOME vs. Oakland Bay not away as it said in the original. Apologies to all of those who were looking forward to driving the hour and some odd minutes to watch. The new link has the correction:
