Scouts: Thursday night, Anzac Day, and this last weekend.

Hi Guys

Yes, school holidays are over and Scouts starts again next Thursday night. Don’t forget that Scouts starts at 7:00pm for the next two terms and that full uniforms are required, not summer uniforms.  There will be a Watch reshuffle since Jareth and Anton have departed and we are setting things up for the next year. We will let you know the programme by Thursday.

ANZAC DAY – next Sunday, Don’t forget – COMPULSORY!!!  All attendees please bring a packet of biscuits or similar for morning tea at the Den.

Lastly, Scouts have been busy since Napier. Callum at Aviation School, Bridget at Caving School. Josh, Amberlee, Daniel and Hannah today completed a 3-day excursion as part of J & A’s Chief Scout Award requirements. Guess they will all give presentations this term.

Cheers

Roger

Scouts: Tonight and Jamboree

Guys 

Great night tonight, fantastic sailing, great team work, lots of fun, lots of maturity and confidence growing. Well done!! 

But still a couple of you shirking duties when cleaning up (no more). And has anyone picked up a pair of boat shoes that aren’t theirs. One scouts shoes have disappeared and there are a pair of black and red shoes in the den. Also blue crocks. 

Jamboree; So far we have 23 Scouts expressed interest to go with 8 undecided. Looking pretty good!!!! 

Next weekend:  Round harbour sailing regatta Saturday (select crews) and full Scout regatta Sunday – let me know ASAP if you would like to be involved on Saturday and are definitely coming Sunday. Last chance will be next Thursday.

thursday night was fantastic

Guys

What a great night. A real pleasure to see you all chipping in. The Bosun's, Coxswains and Assistant Coxswains have been given the word to lift their game and be leaders and teach you how to work as teams as well as many technical gems.

Please have a read of the Code of Conduct page on this site!

Just a couple of reminders:

I need to know if you are not going to be at Scouts or late. This is because (a) your parents may have dropped you off, and then you have been abducted (hopefully not), (b) we have planned activities with teams set prior to the night, and (c) it is just common courtesy and respectful to your fellow Scouts and Leaders.

Shoes must be worn when rowing or sailing. Always bring an old pair of sneakers, etc.

No bare feet or jandals inside the den (we had a glass splinter last night). Sandals are ugly but okay. We won't tell your friends at school or post anything on Facebook if you wear sandals. Crocks … are okay (yes, I have backed down), but please not bright pink, etc on parade.

Lastly, please make an effort to find your uniform and wear it. Replacement scarves and arm-bands are $15 and woggles $3.00. Replacement jerseys are $130.

And welcome aboard to Phil, who finally got his scarf!

Cheers
Roger
