Photo by Arnold Roach Cartwright Scouts have busy year By Jim Sloane In January of this year the 1st Cartwright Troop of Scouts while meeting in their new home; the Nestleton Scout Hall held their investi- ture ceremony and wel- comed their new members. Since then there have been some distinguished visitors Y. at their meetings. Mr. Parsons of Blackstock to speak to the Scouts regard- ing their Religion in Life badges. Mr. Burns of Caesarea to advise them on method-and materials for repair and maintenance of their canoes. Mr. Lawrence Malcolm who brought them the first official word of the decision to classify the Scout Hall as a Township Publi@*Building. Mr. William Pogue 'of Oshawa who gave them movies, slides and an inter- esting and humourous com- mentary on the trip he and his son took down the Yukon River by canoe last summer. The canoe he used on that trip has since attracted the attention of thieves and disa- ppeared from the roof of his car and the G.M. Parking Lot in Oshawa. Mr. Murray Archibald who appears at frequent inter- vals collecting papers and bottles - transporting equip- ment - replacing scouter's when necessary and being one of their chief benefactors wherever possible. Mr. John Kristensen who is always on hand when needed and has been for a number of years now. Scouting has many friends and supporters in the area as evidenced by the immediate sell out whenever they hold a dance. In February it had become obvious that 1% hrs. on Tuesday evenings would never accomplish their purposes and projects so the meetings were extended to an extra three hours on Saturday mornings. The Venturers contributed invaluable assistance with" the Scout Summer Camp last July and two of them have been assisting the Scout Troop since one of them contributed the week of his school break to take a Junior Leadership Training Course at Blue Springs. In line with this policy, the four Patrol Leaders of the Scout Troop - spent Friday evening before the Saturday Cuboree demonstrating and helping Cubs from all the Packs involved set up the tents they would require. Two of them camped over- night with the Cubs and remained the following day to make themselves gener- ally helpful. On June 21, 2 - 3, all the 3 'Scouts of the Lakeland Unattached Groups are holding a Camporee at Vine's Woods. Parents are] as always, welcome, to ob- serve -- or join in. is The Troop also plans au exploring - canoing Summer Camp in the North West corner of Algonquin Park. Plan to accompany the Scout Troop on a week of canoing, exploring, fishing and enjoying Nature in Algonquin Park. If you are interested, check with the Troop® Leaders. Your education has been sadly neglected . if your never gone camping with 1st Cartwright Scouts. If you have children you want to escape from for 2 week, leave them with your mother-in-law. Take your wife, a canoe and your sense of humour and go camping. It will be an experienc you'll never forget. Neither will your mother-in-law probably. If you have an interest in Scouting, or think you might 'have, get in touch with any of the Scout Leaders. Too many people think the Scouter is there to teach the Scouts. Actually he's there to learn from or because of the Scouts.
