14th January Wednesday Scout Meeting

Fall in: Outside 2H Classroom
Time: 1425-1730
Attire: PT Kit 1

Meeting Schedule:
1425-1435: Administrative
1435-1635: Sec 2s: SS Backwoodsmen
                    Sec 3s: SS Pioneering
                    Sec 4s: ASS Footdrill
1635-1715: PT
1715-1730: Dismissal and Announcements


All sec 2s are to collect as much firewood as possible for the backwoodsmen training before the meeting. Those who have passed SS Backwoodsmen will do ASS Backwoodsmen. Sec 4s are to revise on ALL the ASS Footdrill commands and how they should be executed.

This is the first official meeting of this year, and although it has been a while for some since the last meeting, I hope everyone would be punctual and fall in in the correct attire. Another thing that I have noticed over some time is that some of our scout brothers DO NOT READ THE SCOUT BLOG, which would result in them not falling in in the correct attire and at the right time too. Please encourage them to read the blog before every meeting or spread the word to them if there are any changes that they are not aware of.

Please take care of your own safety and the safety of those around you. Safety should be our number 1 priority and it is not something to be taken likely of, especially in activities such as backwoodsmen and pioneering. Also, like Erik sir said during the CCA Maze, when we fall in, we should fall in together, leaving NO ONE behind. Another VERY IMPORTANT POINT is that no one should cut squad in front of any instructors during meeting, as this is very disrespectful. For those that were present during CCA Maze, I hope you remember the punishment and learn from the mistakes that were made. Another important point to take note of is that, when an instruction is given by an instructor, you are expected to follow it to the letter.

Yours-in-Scouting,

Scouts are to fall in at 1215 as there is not much time for preparation and there are still a lot of things that has to be done before CCA Maze begins. If possible, please have a quick bite before falling in.

There should not be anyone wearing improper attire. There should not be any mistakes on your full scout uniform on the day itself. If there are any mistakes, please get them fixed by this meeting. This also applies to all other meetings.

Let's all put in our best efforts so that we will have many sec 1s joining us this year! 加油!

Submission of De:Xufto forms

This is a final reminder for Scouts who have yet to submit their De:Xufto forms. Please submit it tomorrow or else we would have to call your parents to confirm that they have given you the consent to come for De:Xufto. No one (including me) likes to be disturbed at 7.45am in the morning. Anyone without a patrol should not fall in with any of the four patrols and form a new row when falling in.

Thanks,
Teo Xuda.
