Term 4 adventures for Helensburgh Scouts

By Bruce Crawley

As we move into term 4 and the weather is warming up our Joeys, Cubs and Scouts are looking forward to more outdoor activities.

Once the kids reach the Scouting age group, they take an active part in determining what we do each term. Just before the end of term 3 they got together and had a productive session reviewing the year so far, taking on ideas and planning out what we will be doing in term 4. We are quite pleased with what they produced!

Kicking off with a trivia night at the hall we quickly move on to Jamboree On The Air (JOTA), a weekend Scout camp, fire safety night, a Scout organised scavenger hunt, another weekend Scout camp, district rafting night, lasertag and a family picnic on the beach to round out the term. Phew, that will keep us busy.

Our thriving cub pack is now at capacity thanks to the energy and enthusiasm of our leader and volunteers who help weekly. However, we are still keen to hear from you if there is interest in the Joeys or Scout age groups.
