2015 ready to kick off at 1st Coburg Scouts in February

Welcome to 2015!

Happy New Year to all our Scouts, Cubs and Parents and friends.

The Festive Season is over and it’s time to don the shirts and woggles for another great year of adventure!
But before we all kick off the year, we have a few very important announcements.

Scouts
The Scout Troop will be returning to the 1st Coburg Scout Hall in Carr Street from Wednesday night 4th February.
John our District Scout leader has graciously stepped in to help us out in the 1st and 2nd Term. 
Liz will join John to do her training as an assistant leader with John lending his skills in bringing Liz up to speed.  Thanks to John & Liz!     
Sadly Rebecca has won’t be coming back to 1st Coburg and will stay on at Oak Pak assisting their Scout Leader, Paul.  Thanks for your help and all the best to you Rebecca.
Whilst we are sad to see Rebecca move on, we can’t wait to see the 1st Coburg Scout Troop returning home.

Cubs
The pack will kick off on Thursday night 12th February with Tom and Antonio. I hear a great year awaits our ever growing Cub Pack!

Special Parent’s Meeting
There will be a special Parent meeting on the 12th February to discuss the move of the Scout Troop back to Carr Street, including what support we can give John & Liz in the move back.
Please put this in your diary as this meeting is IMPORTANT for the ongoing success of our Scout Group.
Meeting will be at the Carr St hall at 7.00 pm.

Bunnings BBQ
Our first BBQ fundraiser for 2015 is at Bunnings Coburg (Lincoln Mills Homemaker Centre, Gaffney Street) on Saturday 7th February from 8am. 
Thanks to everyone who has signed up to help out on the day. We will be in contact shortly to confirm the roster with volunteers. 
If you can pop by to buy a sausage and a drink, say hello or even point your family & friends to this great fundraiser, every bit helps!

Thanks again for everyone’s support, I look forward to saying g’day to as many of you over the coming months.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Connie or myself using the contact details below.

Cheers
