1. Bonus Meeting - On the River

Day: Wednesday May 27th
Start: 18:30
End: 20:00
Location: Long Island Locks

Scouter Dan said:

Todd we are going to Long Island Locks for fishing derby.
If you want I could bring the Canoes and you could use them. We could run an introduction to canoeing and have the Cubs go out on the water.
Cubs should bring a PFD (personal floatation device) if they have one.
Dan.
So far John and I are available as leaders.

Please email me (or call/txt 613.203.3479) if you are interested in attending.
If we have enough interest we can do a session with Dan and the scouts.

Some things to remember about Funhaven:
  • Socks are a health and safety requirement of our Jungle Gym/Ballocity area.  Please ensure your group all have socks, or they will be available for purchase at the facility for $2 per pair.
  • Running shoes are a safety requirement for the Climbing Wall, and will definitely make your Laser Tag experience more comfortable! 

2. All Sections Camp

Start: 18:30 Friday May 29th
End: 10:00 Sunday May 31st
Location: Fitzroy Harbour

We need to confirm attendance (and option) by Saturday May 23rd.

From our Group Commissioner:
The 1st Manotick Group All-Sections Camp is an (annual) event where all of our Sections (Venturers through Beavers) can come together to enjoy two nights of outdoor camping, plus a ceremonial campfire and other activities.  This year, the event has been scheduled for the weekend of May 29-31 (the last weekend in May).  We are planning to book the group campsite at Fitzroy Harbour Provincial Park to hold this event.  The Camp will run from 6:30 pm on the Friday night until approximately 10:00 am on the Sunday morning.

Document Links from the Group Council:
Additional information from A-Pack:
  • The 1st Manotick group rates are $30 for two nights, $20 for one night. A-Pack is going to use our funds to further subsidize the cubs. I don't have the amount at present, but consider the group rates a "maximum" cost.
