Pioneering Competition on 29 July (Saturday)

Fall-in: Outside Scout Den
Time: Morning session: 0800-1230
          Afternoon session: 1300-1730
Attire: PT Kit 2

Hi all,

This post only concerns the remaining 4 patrols which have yet to do their pioneering competition.

 Please note that all patrols are to come 30 mins before their allocated timeslot to start bringing down equipment so that the construction period can start on time. The patrols are expected to build finish their structures, have their structures judged and untie their structure within the timeslot so that we can dismiss you on time. All members of the patrols are required to attend the competition unless a valid reason is given.

Please bring along your water bottles, a change of clothes and sunblock (optional)

  Those who still have queries about their structures should consult their PLs before the actual day itself. All patrol members should already know what logistics to take down. No extra time will be given to discuss about your structures.

We know that you all have put in a lot of effort in preparing for the competition, so do not let your efforts go to waste. Even if you do not win the award, the experience gained and bonds you have built with your fellow brothers are still much more important.

There will also be PLCM on that day, PLs are required to come.

Yours-in-scouting,
SPL Sunny Wu

2017 Pioneering Competition Training & Gadget Pole Building Competition

 

 

Hi Scouts, these are some of the photos taken during the pioneering competition training and the gadget pole building competition. For the pioneering competition training, even though not everyone managed to "起" the structure,  everyone did a great job in building at least a small part of it. For the gadget pole building competition, all of our structures were relatively stable, creative and were done in a short time. I hope you guys can put in the same level of enthusiasm and effort in all meetings!

Yours in scouting
