Pack 160 Upcoming Events

Our Pack 160 Wreath Fundraiser is in full swing! This is a great way to support our Scouts while spreading some holiday cheer — and it’s easy to share with family and friends near or far.

🎁 How to Order:

Share the fundraiser link or catalog with all your family and friends: https://threeriversfundraising.com/fundraiser/fp160-w25

For local pickup orders, please include the Scout(s) name(s) you are supporting in the gift message section so we can give credit properly in their Scoutbucks. Pickup orders need to be placed by November 9th. After this date you can still order wreaths with the direct ship option through December 1st.

We’ll be picking up wreaths on Saturday, November 29th (morning), and they’ll be ready for local pickup in Methuen around 3:00 PM that afternoon. We will send out the pickup address once the arrive locally.

🚚 Not Local? No Problem!

If you're a supporter who lives farther away, you can order from the Ship-to-Home Catalog. Items from that catalog can be shipped directly to your home for an additional cost and will still support your scouts journey!

Sunday, November 30th at 1:00 PM

Come celebrate with us as Salem honors its 275th Anniversary in this year’s parade theme:
⭐ “The Celebration of Salem’s 275th Anniversary!” ⭐

Bring your holiday cheer and help us make this year’s parade one to remember! 🎄🥁🎅

Parade Route

The parade starts at the intersection of Main Street and Policy Street. It continues down Main Street and turns right onto Geremonty Drive, ending at Salem High School.
Parade participants line up on Northeastern Boulevard and march the route to end at the High School.

​

Take Route 93 to exit 2. Coming from the South, bear right onto Pelham Road. Coming from the north, take a left off exit 2, onto Pelham Road. 

Please note: The Salem, NH Police Department closes access to Main Street at 12:45 on parade day. Free parking is available along the parade route at the Mary Fisk Elementary School, Municipal Parking Lot, Santander Bank, Eastpointe Plaza, the old Trolley Barn, Woodbury Middle School, and the Kelley Library. 

Participants are highly encouraged to park at Salem High School at 44 Geremonty Drive, Salem, NH and take the free school bus shuttle to the parade staging area on Northeastern Boulevard.

*Students participating as part of a community or school group etc. may be dropped off to join their group at the lineup area until noon on parade day. Please note that traffic on Northeastern Boulevard is one-way on parade day, beginning at the Brookdale Road entrance. Parade lineups are finalized at noon to allow for final adjustments. We ask that all participants be in place by noon. Please allow ample time for shuttle or drop off.

We’re kicking things off with the Holiday Parade on November 30, followed by one of Salem’s most beloved traditions — Carols & Cocoa at Salem High School!

🕯️ Carols & Cocoa
📍 Salem High School
🕠 5:30 p.m. | Thursday, December 4

This year’s event will feature beautiful performances by:
✨ The Select Elementary & Middle School Choruses
✨ The High School Advanced Chorus
✨ The Salem High School Marching Band with a special Christmas Medley
✨ A sneak peek of the upcoming musical, Disney’s The Little Mermaid

After the band leads in Santa — with a little help from the Salem Fire Department — he’ll sprinkle a touch of magic to light the over 50-foot town tree, decorated with more than 5,500 sparkling lights!

The evening will be filled with holiday magic, including:
❄️ Sing-alongs
🎅 Photos with Santa
💚 A visit from the Grinch
🌟 Costumed characters & glowing light displays
☕ Delicious hot cocoa
🚒 Holiday-decorated vehicles from Salem Police, Fire, Municipal Services, Claudio Arsenio, and Student Transportation of America

Don’t forget to bring your letter to Santa! Salem Community Services will have their special mailbox on-site — ready to whisk those letters straight to the North Pole overnight.

A beautiful holiday throne and backdrop, generously provided by Canobie Lake Park, will be perfect for photos with Santa… assuming the Grinch doesn’t try to sneak in!
Special thanks to the Salem Exchange Club for providing live trees to decorate the stage — which will be donated to local families after the event.
