Looking forward to the Scout camp Jedi’s?
Ziggy can you let me know the numbers signed up to date, we need to gather final numbers to District over the Easter break and encourage other potential Jedi’s to step forward.

Dear 8th Carlton Cub leaders,

I am running a small cub group for international kids in Burma, following the Australian Lone Scout system. We are arranging a camp in two weeks with a surprise Star Wars theme and starting to look at activities I would be eternally grateful for any resources and ideas you might be able to share from your camp that we could use with our group..

Did you theme the meals as well? Part of our Jedi training will include practice with “light Sabres” made from pool noodles and electrical tape (we can’t buy pool noodles in this country so these have come in from far climes) but we have nothing else and no chance to find ready-made costumes.

Thre group has reached its cap of 20 kids (mostly from families her as aid workers and with embassies) but none of us are trained cub leaders … we have two guide leaders, one ex-cub (yes, it was a long time ago) and I reached the Queen Scout level in Australia (also many years ago) so any resource you can point us to for meetings and ideas for forward programming would be great.

Many thanks
Shon
