Fwd: Scout’s 23rd March

Oh Units and their PAs it's that time of the week again where I confuse you with the aim of informing you....

 
Sooo what's 'appening this week I hear you mumble?
 

23rd March: Callum

Wheely good

ð          A working bike.

ð          No really, one that has pumped up tires and everything.

ð          Lights for your bike, or at the very least a head torch.

ð          A helmet

ð          A snack

ð          A bottle of water

ð          Insect repellent (unless you can peddle really really fast)

ð          Two parent helpers (no, not everyone – that would just be weird)

Ä        
 
Remember that ole bit of joy?
 
Soooo, yes - bring your wheels, and it would be great if we could get a couple of PAs (Parental Assistants) to dig out the stragglers when we get off track on the single tracks...
 
AND REMEMBER IT GETS DARK - no really, you'll need a bike light or head torch at the very least.
 
In other bee's knees
 
Scout Hike (no not Camberwell Hike), think about it, wake up in a cold sweat at midnight with FOMO, scream "ME ME I want to be a hiking sprout!" go back to sleep confused...
 
It goes May 19th to May 21st and you'll be questing about Tallarook Forest, taking part in fun activities, cooking for yourself over the camp fire and being awesome. The cost is $70 per head  plus food costs (plus you'll get 100 Bonus Points, if you sign before 2nd April). Cost covers bus transport to and from the hike area, pennants for each Patrol, badges for each person involved, toilets, drinking water, as well as administration costs. Etc.
 
We're almost across the line with a patrol who plan to sprint it like deranged hares (with deranged hair perhaps) but a patrol who plan to stroll through smelling the wombats and generally beating the hares (when they sleep in) would be awesome too. Ask yourself, "can I put one foot in front of the other without getting confused?" if the answers No, then do we have an SIA opportunity for you...
 
Camberwell Showtime
Venturers and Rovers have a special opportunity to learn while having fun with friends old and new.
Scout and Guide members aged 15 and over on Opening Night, Friday August 4, are eligible to join the Camberwell Showtime 
Applications for cast and crew are due on Friday April 21 and we should have someone sneaking by next week to press gang units to the cast. Oh just ask Fraiser, Scout, et al how much fun it was...
 
With two weeks of scouting madness left its also time to think about what we want to get into next term. We've got some ideas but this is your show so let us know!
 
Enjoy your week and wheel see you wheely soon!
 
Jason, Stuart
4th Kew Scouts

Term One Scout Planner, AJ2025 and Feb camp

Well hallo Units and their PAs,   I know you were just lamenting to all your friends how dull and boring your fridge looked without this term's handy-dandy term planner on it... Well fear no more, that dull shopping list with cat food and toilet roll but no maxi-pack of Magnums can now be easily obscured with all the cool-beans fun your good ole unit council and leaders have cooked up for you. Your planner is attached for your fridging pleasure.   But all this comes at a cost you know, no - not monetary, well not yet anyway, we need ACTION! Hard RSVPs that's the currency we want.   Dates are bearing down on us like a freight train of commitment screaming along the greased wheels of inevitably - oh old man time - give it a break why don't you....   First up - Bay Park Camp on the 23rd to the 25th . This is the camp to start all camps - the camp for you! What's that you say? You've just started linking and don't even know which end of a scout goes

End of term reminders

Hello to Scout families.     Last night was the last meeting for term 1.    Wishing everyone a safe and Happy Easter, it's been a very short but hectic term.   Reminders to all to please pay for Stradbroke Cup and yearly Scout fees if you haven't already.     Lots of compliments to all our Scouts (last night) as they put their phones aside for the night and didn't use them at all!    We have had a few scouts asking about replacement scarves for various reasons, please have your scout look around to find it.  We are deciding on the best way to do this, so stay tuned!      Next term we will most likely have a camp staying in tents to practice for camping as scout in preparation for Australian Jamboree. All are welcome even  if not go to AJ2025.    Information on Jamboree with registrations closing June 30  https://bit.ly/aj2025   We also have Scout hike (May 17 - May 19)  https://scoutsvictoria.com.au/activities-events/events/scouts/s

Scout night plan 31st July

Forwarding a message from our master of ceremonies/chaos Emil.    Nice planning Emil! It's got everything: dreams drama, a sense of foreboding, just what we expect...   For the TL;DNR please   We will meet at the IKEA entrance of Vic gardens at 7pm NOT at the hall.    Pick up will be from the HALL at 9pm (unless we all get lost in IKEA).   A good time will be had, we will not bring shame upon our unit.    Oh and please remember to Wear Your Uniform. It'll help them find you in Smàland and remind you that shame shall not be brought...   See you tomorrow scouts Yours Ëmil, Jacinta, Will, Stuart, Jason From: Emil Russell   Here's the plan for scouts this week. We will meet at the Ikea entrance of Victoria Gardens where we will give a quick briefing and hand out the scavenger hunt lists. I will then send out everyone all around Victoria Gardens in patrols. We will then meet back at the entrance of Ikea at 8:15 then we will
