Dear Parent,
1. There will be No Scout Meeting on the 14th Nov since the Scout section will be camping at the Yermasoyia Scout hut over that weekend starting at 9am. The next Scout Meeting will be at the Yermasoyia Scout hut from 3pm to 5.30pm on Saturday 21st November.
2. November Subs can also be paid online with JCC Smart to the 53rd Bank Account. Some members still owe for September and October, please check with leaders during the meeting for an update. Subs are what keeps the Group running. We remind parents that Subs are €20 per child, per month, regardless whether they miss meetings that month the sum of €20 is still to be paid. Families with 3 children in the Group will only pay Subs for two. The JCC Link: https://www.jccsmart.com/businesses/54330022
3. We remind Parents that the 53rd has recycle bins for batteries at the Scout Huts in Moutayiaka and Yermasoyia. Last Year 55Kg of batteries were collected from our two recycle bins and handed in to AFIS.
4. As part of their Values Badge and SDGs the Explorers will be doing a food collection for Families in need. The Explorers are asking for food items like Tin foods (Tuna, Meats and Tomatoes), Rice, beans, lentils, pasta, biscuits and Rusks. Also, Baby nappies. Members able to donate any of these items please bring them to the Scout huts on the 21st and 28th Nov. If members would like to donate money, as in the past, the Explorers will collect and then go and buy food items to be donated.
5. Work has already started at the Yermasoyia Scout hut preparing for the next projects that will be done regarding the electric supply and road going down to the Scout hut. The gate will be closed to stop access by cars. Please do not drive down the track.
Yours in Scouting
