Scouts - ON TUESDAY NIGHT with the Venturers

Scouts this week is presented by the Ventures as a joint night on TUESDAY night 2nd. 7pm.
For the scouts preparing to transition into the second best section in scouting, I urge you to do your best to come on Tuesday night to see the Vent's in full motion & meet the crew & have some awesome fun doing it.
Bring a jumper and a torch, you will be out of the hall during the night.
We'll be doing the shopping for rally on Friday morning so as to have the freshest of food before we leave. Your menus should be on the blog also. Please print and bring with you on Friday. I will shop for your frozen stuff for pick up Friday.


See you there... Butch.

What is Bearskin?
Bearskin is a 2 day Dragonskin styled Initiative weekend for the Scout Section organised by the North Coast Region Venturers!

Scouts whom have gained their Scoutcraft can attend Bearskin in teams of at least 4 (don't worry if you don't have enough Scouts to make a full team, we can join teams together so no one misses out!). 

Venturers, Rovers and Leaders can attend for a awesome weekend of socialising with fellow scouters and running bases for the Scouts which come through. There is a prize for the best base! So get your thinking caps on!

Bearskin is held from the 3rd - 4th of September 2016 in the Barcoongere State Forest, NSW.
