No Cubs Thursday 28/05 -But Some Good News



Hi Cubs,

Sorry but there will be no Zoom or Face to face Cubs this Thursday night.

However I am very pleased to advise you all that as of the 1st of June we will be able to meet again, all be it in smaller groups and outdoors. For more information visit the Scouts NSW site. I spoke about that possibility at our Zoom Meeting last week.

There is a lot of work us leaders need to do so we can organise some safe & fun outdoor activities for you, along with online scouting activities. As we are restricted to a maximum of 10 people for now, we will be allocating you all into special patrols for any face to face activities.

keep your eye on the blog and your emails for further information.

Looking forward to seeing you all in person sometime soon
