Unit Night @ Mirage Hall

This Tuesday 02/03/2010

Come and join us for an awesome night of fun at the hall!

Games for the week include: 'Slogger Ball,' Indoor/Outdoor Soccer, and David G's special game where you all face one way and he places a few objects behind you and when told 'go' you have to be the first to grab it... Venturer Style! These games require absolutely no skill involved so be there or bring another friend!

Edit by Cheese: For those who are going on the Initiative Course next weekend, we'll also be doing a bunch of prep activities for that. If you have your own menu you want to cook, bring it (typed out) so I can approve it. Otherwise you have to cook one of the two pre-approved menus.

For those who do not know the Victorian Venturer website here it is:

Combined Unit Beach Night 16-2-10

The next 2 weeks will be at the same location: the beach.
This week we are there just with a combined unit night, next week is our joint night with all the Scout Troops in the district.

As such, this week we will run through all the activities we'll be running for the Scouts next week, as well as having some fun of our own.

Details:
Where: Point Ormond Beach, Point Ormond Ave, Elwood (Mel 67 A2)
When: 7:00pm - 8:30pm (note early start and finish times)
What to bring: no uniform required, clothing will be weather dependent - if it's cold or damp, bring a jacket. Weather forecast is for not particularly warm weather, so I wouldn't plan on swimming.

I will need unit council members for about an hour after 8:30 to discuss things at a District level.

If anyone has issues with transport to get there or back, please give me call/SMS and we will arrange a lift for you.

Initiative and Expedition Prep 9-2-10

This Tuesday night we will be running prep activities for the upcoming Initiative Course, as well as an introduction to planning an expedition. To break this up and keep it interesting, we'll have a few games as well.

It's all normal time, 7:30 - 9:30 at the hall. Bring your shirts and scarves for parade, and comfortable clothing for the rest of the night.

I will be emailing out a flyer for the Initiative Course tonight.
