Hello all.
Firstly a Happy New Year, On behalf of the Committee and Leadership of the 1st Coburg Scouts I hope you had an enjoyable break over the summer, and are ready for a bumper 2016!
Start of the Scouting Year
Cubs
Tom and Antonio will be kicking off Cubs on Thursday 4th February from 7pm at the Hall. The pack is getting bigger and we are expecting to welcome more kids and parents throughout the year.
Scouts
Liz and Rachel will be starting a week later as they are busy at Patrol Leadership courses next week. Scouts will kick off on Wednesday 10 February from 7pm at the Hall.
Upcoming Fundraiser at Bunnings 12th March 2016
Thought I would get on early! We are seeking volunteers for the set up, running and pack up of a Bunnings BBQ at Lincoln Mills Coburg. We kick off from 7:30am and pack up at 4:30pm. Keep an eye out for the sign on sheet at the Hall from next week. Alternatively you can email me at paulie.ferrari@bigpond.com to get an early spot.
Hall Cleaning Roster
I was a bit remiss late last year to have overlooked this important task. From next week I will post a Cleaning Roster an will aim to ensure each family gets a maximum of two cleaning spots for the year. You are most welcome to swap with other parents and the job can be done on the night your kids are at Cubs or Scouts.

We started in the 1930's in an old tin shed before eventually moving into our current hall in 1970 (known as Tuddenham Hall). Our Group caters for youth members between ages 5-14 and supports Venturers & Rovers beyond. Our Group values diversity, inclusion and equality.
