Please email your leader with your preferred start time and location and the blog will be updated as requests are received.  If one location becomes too crowded, we may have to ask you to make another selection.  We will do our best to accomodate your first choice.  Apple Day is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year.  Money collected will be used to fund events, crafts, crests, etc.

Group Committee Meeting

Our area commissioner, Ken, has asked that we extend an invitation to all parents to attend the Group Committee meeting Sunday September 30, 6:30pm.  If you are interested in learning more about Scouting, and the planning process, this is your chance!

Wednesday, September 26th

All Sections Meeting

 
We hope everyone enjoyed the first meeting of the year.  We have a current enrollment of 19 youth and have almost reached our maximum for the year.  Beaver scouts is run with a 1:5 Leader to Youth ratio.  We could use your help as anyone attending tonight's meeting was sure to notice that Bubbles will be taking some time off shortly to care for her expected arrival in November.  The more leaders we have, the more youth we can accomodate.
 
The second meeting of the year will be held on Wednesday the 26th at Trinity Bible Church, 4101 Stagecoach Road.  The meeting will begin at 6:30 and end at 8:00.  It will be an outdoor meeting.  Please bring a cup or mug for each Beaver.  If you are interested in becoming a Volunteer, training will be held at this time.   
 
 
We look forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday!

Volunteering

 
This year we are very fortunate to have four returning leaders.  In order to continue the program and provide the best experience we can for as many youth as possible, we do need more help.  If you are able to attend meetings and help out in as few as three meetings this year, we NEED you.  We are asking for help at whatever level you are able to commit to.  You may arrive at meetings and help out, or you may join up and help us plan and organize the meetings.  Scouts Canada takes the safety and security of all children very seriously.  As a result there is mandatory training for all volunteers.  We are holding a training session during the meeting time on the 26th of September at Trinity Bible Church.  While your children are enjoying Scouting, you may complete part of the training that will allow you to be a part of their Scouting experience.  Parents may still attend meetings and events with their child/children without taking the training, but may not help out with other children or help run any events or programming.  As a leader you will become a valued and valuable member of our team.
 
Please consider joining us!
*Bring a mug for coffee and/or tea*
