Harmelia Gardens Group updates Scarf Colours

Just before the close of the Cub meeting on 8th June 2012, all Cubs and Scouters in attendance were issued with our "updated" Scarf Colours.

Over the past years it became problematic in obtaining the "burnt-orange" colour from material suppliers. It was finally agreed to change this colour to one that is more readilly available (according to our material supplier).

Scouts received their scarves at start of their meeting.

Below is a digital picture taken of our Cubs with their new scarves.

Scouts enjoyed Kim Shield Challenge

Our Patrol, Mirage, recently participated in the Gauteng Provincial "Kim Shield Challenge" held in the suburbs of Northern Johannesburg. They succeeded in securing overall "4th place" with 3305 points. Crucial to this challenge was when to play a trump card which provided addtional points. The patrol was succesful in almost doubling their points at 5 of the 68 bases.

Photos to follow.

Cub Challenge

During the School Holidays, Hathi built an airplane (see below) and brought it to the Cub meeting at the start of the new school term. This was built using waste cardboard.

A challenge was given at the Cub meeting to our Cubs to also build an airplane out of waste items.

Pictures below are of three airplanes made by our Cubs which were brought to last Fridays Cub meeting
