Scouts do read up on your footdrill, especially Sec 2 and 3 for your ASS footdrill as it is very complicated. This will be a practice for your footdrill test coming in term 4.
Also Scouts who have missed/failed/did not take the tests for SS course, you will be taking it on Friday too. The test being conducted are ASS ridge tent, SS dome tent, SS backwoodsman.
*Scouts taking SS backwoodsman be prepared to stay back after meeting for about 30 mins to complete the test as there might be not enough time.
Do study for the tests and i expect all of you to be prepared when it is your turn to have the test.

Also Scouts who are interested in pursuing for the Proficiency badges are welcomed to download the guidelines: http://www.mediafire.com/?wtgv04lxdq8zrza
The password is the same for all the other files. Find your PLs/APLs/SPLs for clarification.
Do pursue it as it will make your uniform look cool. I will explain more on Friday.

We have a new tenderfoot called Goh Rui Jie (sorry if type wrong) from 1 Edward. He will be joining the Marist Scouting family from now. Give him a very warm welcome and support as he is still stranger to this unit.

Thanks and rest well for SA2, Happy Mugging!

How a Pioneering Model should look like.

Before any major Pioneering Projects, it is always good to create a mini-Pioneering Model to aid in visualizing the finished project and to spot for any potential difficulties while building it.

Donation Draw 2011

Hey guys,

This may seems redundant, but..
Do check out today's Straits Times/Lianhe Zaobao (Sat, 10 Sep 2011) for the winning numbers of the donation draw tickets for this year! Especially for those who bought some of your tickets..

And don't forget to give your fellow scouts a treat if you really do win something. I guess this is the real legalized underage '4D/Toto'. :)
