A New Beginning

Dear Scouts

First and foremost, welcome to year 2010 and it is a new beginning for our Scouts!!! I would like to congratulate the new appointments of Patrol Leaders (PLs) and Assistant Patrol Leaders (APLs). Together with the Senior Patrol Leaders (SPLs) and Troop Leader (TL), they will form the Patrol Leaders' Council. I will present the seniors with their appointments the following Saturday. It was also a pleasant surprise to see the Ventures today. I do wish they carry out what they want to achieve.

With many activities packed into the calendar, I would like to see active and enthusiastic participation. Hopefully, by next week, all the necessary notes for the various courses and the workplan (some new changes again) will be ready. Also, as a reminder, please do some household chores as part of your Service requirement every week (I will try to settle the Cub Scout Unit Partnership). We will update this every Saturday when you come for your meetings. Last but not least, let's work together for a fantastic year ahead!!!
