The month of February historically is a busy month for Scouting and Guiding. This is the month we celebrate the birthdays of our founders, Lord and Lady Baden-Powell of Gilwell. Both born on February 22.
Annual Family Potluck Dinner – Saturday February 24
This will be a family potluck dinner. Each family brings a main course casserole to feed 6-8 people. Please label the contents/name of casserole and indicate if there are any nuts or allergens in your casserole. Also put your name on the casserole dish and serving spoon and pick them up after the dinner. We will sit down for dinner at 6:00 so you can arrive any time after 5:30. There will be entertainment by the boys after dinner. We will have to conduct the business part of the Annual Meeting during this dinner as per Scouts Canada rules.
To help us with numbers (so we know how many drinks, deserts, etc to get), please register at Google Docs
Sleepover – Saturday February 24 – After Dinner
We will be having a sleepover for Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts, Venturer Scouts and Rover Scouts.
We will have Board games and a movie maybe a indoor campfire.
Baden-Powell Church Service – February 25
The church service starts at 10:00. Boys meet at 9:30. We encourage all Beaver Scouts, Cub Scouts, Scouts, Venturer Scouts, Rover Scouts and leaders to attend this service in uniform as a thank you to the Church for the best meeting facility in the city.
Parents are encouraged to attend. Since the youth are at the church they can stay for the church service. Any members of the Girl Guides are also invited to attend in uniform.
Hope to see you all at the above events.
