Let the Celebrations Commence!

The Hall grand opening is planned for this Saturday 23 October – a family sign-up sheet was handed our two weeks ago.
Please make sure you phone one of the contacts if you have not already done so.
Scouts please wear your uniform.

Water Rocket Launchers

Congratulations to Julien Goodwin, Daniel Heath, Richard McCoy, Iain McCoy and Stewart Perry who have now completed their Water Rocket launchers and have now earnt their air activity badges. Good to see lots of badges awarded last week too, and Space camp badges given out tonight as well!

November is "camping month" for 1st Waverley.
Permission slip out tonight for the "New Century Challenge Camp" on November 5 to 7 at Eumeralla near Anglesea. Your $10 deposit was due tonight. (The info sheet specifies a cost of $8, but this excludes transport and food costs. Total cost will be $25-$30)
We will also be going to a Water Activities & Abseiling Camp over the weekend of November 20 and 21. This camp will be held at Clifford Park which is only about 45 minutes drive away. This camp will cost $30 per person

Permission slips out tonight for Ice Skating, New Century Challenge Camp and Water Activities & Abseiling Camp. Please return them ALL next week!

Cubs Space Night

Scouts are requested to come along and help out with the Cubs Space Night tomorrow night Thursday 21 October at 7pm. Deep space participants are requested to bring their robot moths & bats (and torches) along. Please bring your water rockets, pumps and launchers too.

Wine Bottling Fundraiser

Once again this fantastic value event is being organized by First Waverley. Parents, families and friends have the opportunity to buy good quality "clean skin" wines at a great price. An added bonus is that this event helps to keep the scout fees down, while enabling the group to offer a wide range of activities. Please encourage your parents to support this fundraiser. Get them to take the form to their workplace and see how easy it is to help support our scout group.
Orders are due on or before 23rd October. The Wine Bottling takes place on 6th November.

Troop Council

Troop Council met last night. Hassle your PL to find out what's been decided for activities for the rest of this year and early next year.

 

Emergency Asthma Management

If there are any Scouts or Parents who are interested in attending an Asthma Victoria Emergency Asthma Management course for one evening, please let Cyclo know at your earliest convenience. The course is designed as an adjunct to a Level2 Workplace First Aid qualification. Cost will be about $15.00.
