\ i 14 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, December 22,1986 Section Two No Shortage of Santas at Maple Grove School Party Scout Paper Drives Help Support Their Activities member of society. All the money collected goes directly to the Scouting needs of the boy. While leaders and boys benefit by being able to run anà take part in programmes,, we feel that by running these paper drives, we are also helping our community. But really, we owe a great deal of thanks to YOU--the ones who conscientiously keep the weekly and daily papers and bundle them ud for us. We will remove your papers regularly, but request one thing. That is that you nave your papers out on the side of the road, no later than 8:30 a.m. on the day of the paper drive. The town is divided up and assigned to teams of drivers and boys who try to ensure . all papers are collected. Unfortunately, we are human and occasionally, we miss a street or a bundle. We do try not to let this happen, but trv as we might, there is always somewhere we miss. If this does happen, please call us. We value your support and would hate to lose it. Elsewhere in this week's edition are numbers you can call if we do in fact miss your -street. We would also like to hear from you if you have large amounts of paper that you are unable to keep for 2 or 3 months until the next paper drive. We can make special 'pickups if given notice. Listed in this edition's Clip-and-Save coupon for 1987, are the dates of upcoming paper drives. Please take 2 minutes NOW and cut it out and pin it to your notice board or fridge for easy reference. Again we would like to express our thanks for your valued and continuous suport, and on behalf of SCOUTS CANADA, WEST DURHAM DISTRICT, would like to extend to you and your family every Best Wish for the upcoming Holiday Season. There was no shortage of Christmas cheer during tage of Santas. Some of the members of the cast from the Maple Grove Public School Christmas concert the Christmas program are shown above, last Tuesday. And, for that matter, there was no shor- Hot Dogs Go Over Well at Toy Library Christmas Party Scouts are not the only boys that benefit from these Saturday morning adventures. The Beavers and Cubs also see rewards for their older brother Scouts' endeavours. The equipment obtained can also be used bv the younger boys. . Saturday morning and most people are getting that extra few hour's rest in bed. But, in numerous houses around town, lights are going on early as young Scouts, Parents and Leaders prepare for this month's "Paper Drive". The fundsiraised in this and any other) methods, go towards the every day running of the groups. It also helps in the purchase of specialized equipment for camping. These funds have helped boys attend Jamborees, like the one held last year in Guelph, Ontario, where about 60 local Scouts spent a week of fun and activities, or the one in 1989 in P.E.I. where we hope again to send about 60 boys. Registration fees and dues do not always cover the proposed budget requested by the relevant Leaders of the sections.' We also have to purchasë record books, badges, craft supplies and pay for parties and outings. The monies received from the paper drives help to offset these costs. All the time and effort given by the Leaders is strictly voluntary; no financial reward is given to them. The only reward each 1 Leader gets is the smiling face, the thank y ous, and the vision of helping the individual child to become a valued The paper drives are arranged five times a year Between R a.m. and noon, on those dates, cars and trucks of all shapes and sizes can be seen running around town. Every so often they stop, and out jump two or three Scouts who load bundles of newspapers into the back of their vehicle from the roadside. Some bundles are packaged just to our liking, that being, like a birthday or Christmas present tied up neat and tight with string, whilst other bundles are in plastic bags, cardboard boxes or just loose. No matter how the boys gather the papers, they stack it all into a large trailer ready for shipment to Toronto. Several weeks later, a cheque is received by each of the three Bowmanville groups that participated, in payment for their labours.
