Scout and about 2nd November

Hello Units!
 
I trust your blood glucose levels remain suitably under control after the sugar rush that is Halloween. If not, the following should fix it!
 
This Thursday, under the careful planning eye of our very own Emil we'll be out and about on a bike ride, somewhere (and if we're lucky Emil might even choose a route with ice-cream on the way, hint hint)
 
So what will I need I hear you ask enthusiastically!
  • A bike that works (wheels pumped, brakes braking, saddle present, suspicious squeak absent)
  • Lights for your bike (front and back preferably, a head torch at a minimum, a Davy lantern not at all).
  • A helmet. Yes - a lid for your loaf, a bucket for your brain, a can for your cabbage.... No helmet no ride (unless you can demonstrate you've no brain to protect) ....
  • A small backpack with a snack (almost typed snake there), a drink and a raincoat
  • A yellow jersey, but only if you're feeling speedy speedy.
 
Whilst our main objective is to ruin the Strava times of all those who confuse the bike trail with Le Tour we do aim to keep ourselves under control. To help us wrangle the spread of peddling power across our Units it would be great if we could get a parent helper so that Jason and I aren't strung out (more than usual) along a 3km line...
 
MAMILs and Non-MAMILs may apply....
 
Looking forward to getting those wheels rolling, 
 
Emil, Jason and Stuart
4th Kew

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
