Beginning of Year Reminders

Topics:

Hi Folks, just some reminders of upcoming events ...

1. Rideau Area Camp
2. Registration
3. First Meeting
4. Leaders



1. Rideau Area Camp

Deadline for registration is tomorrow, Sept 7
Let me know by email or phone/txt (613.203.3479) if you plan to attend.

So far we have: 
  • John and Todd as leaders
  • Greg and Logan as cubs
  • we are attending for the day only

See details from the previous message .


2. Registration

  • Online at myscouts
  • Tuesday night at St. Leonard.
  • Wednesday night at Rideauview Community Centre
See details from the previous message .


3. First Meeting

Wednesday Sept 16th, 18:30 - 20:00 at Bernard Grandmaitre

See details from the previous message for first time cubs and for this meeting .


4. Leaders

Currently we have only two full-time leaders.

This is the minimum number of leaders for up to 12 cubs.

That means:

  • the pack size is limited to 12
  • if either leader can't make an event, the event will have to be canceled

We need volunteers to become leaders. 
In the short term this will give us cover when one leader can't make it to an event. 
In the long term this will help with knowledge transfer as leaders move on to other sections. 

What is involved in becoming a leader?
  1. Tell me, John, or our Group Commissioner, Robin
  2. Sign in to myscouts, agree to a few things, and start the cub training (see the training FAQ)
  3. Have an interview with Robin
  4. Get a Police Records Check (PRC)
