Cub Newsletter 17th Oct 2026

Dear Parents,

1. The next Cub Meeting will be at the Moutayiaka Scout hut from 3pm to 5.30pm on Saturday 24th October. We ask that all Cubs are in Full Uniform.

The Cub Full Uniform is the yellow Cub Shirt with all the badges on it, blue shorts and socks, the green Cub Cap with the badge on it and blackish shoes. Not the Yellow Cub T-shirt and Baseball cap. To be prepared for cooler weather Cubs can also get the purple hoodie from the Limassol Scout Shop.

2. Next Saturday 24th October is a very important day for the 53rd. We will be having our going up parade at the Moutayiaka Scout Hut. At 4.30pm the Parents are invited to come and see the going up ceremony of this year’s 3 Leaping Wolves going up to Scouts. This is also an opportunity to invest any new members that are ready.

3. The 53rd Explorers are organising a Halloween party on Saturday 31st October at the Moutayiaka Scout hut starting at 4pm and finishing at 6.30pm for our Youth Members. The party is open to all our members which can also bring a friend. Tickets can be bought from Leaders at €10 per person, all payments in cash. No more tickets will be available after the 24th October. Also, we ask Parents to keep in mind that we expect the friends coming to the party to obey our rules and regulations.

4. Any Parents able to help the Explorers with the food supply for the Halloween Party please contact the Explorer Leader, Nafsika Kouali, by messenger chat.

5. The Parents Messenger Chat is to keep the Parents informed about the program and update them with any changes. Parents with questions should contact their section Leader or Skip (Richard Vlamis) with a private message. Too many posts on the Messenger Chat means the main Info gets lost further up the chat. Skip can also be contacted by phone on 99604211. He prefers a phone call rather than messaging. It would also be a good idea to visit the 53rd’s Website to see the newsletter and Calendar pages before asking any questions.

6. Please note that there are car parks for the Moutayiaka Scout hut a little further up the road and around the surrounding area. Please use this car parks and do not stop or park on the road outside the scout hut.

Yours in Scouting
