Lions Club president, noted that the voung people of Victoria Harbour and area have tremendous talent and energy and view the needs of the community from a definite per- spective. The Leo Club will provide them with the op- portunity to join together and develop their own approaches to solving community problems. The Lions will advise members, but they will be free to design their own projects and elect their own of- ficers. Leos will also have their own budget. _ Lions Clubs have fostered youth activities for years. Among community service groups, they are the largest single sponsors of Bay Scout units in the world. They also operate a Youth Exchange and Youth Camp Program which includes several nations. The Leo Club Program was formally adopted by The International Association of Lions Clubs in 1967. and has for its purpose the development of leadership potential and community service in young people. Friendship and mutual understanding are other essential goals of Leo Ciubs. PGH Births B.20-r) a in Penetanguishene General Hospital on Born to Mr. and Mrs. six pounds 14 ounces.

Scout motto applies for jamboree: Be Prepared bv Robin Nutbrown An updated article was published in the January / February Provincial Notes per- taining to the Canadian Jamboree scheduled for July 1-10, 1981. The Canadian Jamboree has been planned on the basis of each participant carrving and _ using lightweight camping and cooking gear. The C.J.°81 definition of lightweight gear is "that which can be carried on the person to the campsite." The distance between the entrance and the various subcamps varies between one- quarter mile and one mile. Because of _ the altitude (nearly a mile), wind. temperature extremes, and the type of terrain, the C.J. '81 site will present a real challenge to each participant and unit. The following is provided to help you select the kind of equipment to bring to ensure your comfort and safety. Sturdy hiking boots, well broken in. Warm sleeping bag, good to 0 degrees C. Tents. Lightweight wall tent with breathable roofs and waterproof _ flysheets; strong poles to withstand winds up to 60 miles per hour. Be prepared with replacements and repair materials. Tent pegs - because of the "'cobbly"' soil (small stones) and the constant winds. pegs must be at least 10 inches in length. They must be metal; a 10 inch galvanized eavestrough spike would do; but not wood, plastic or lightweight aluminum. A complete list of personal and unit gear is included in the Jamboree Manual, which will be MILL OUTLET 547 Bayfield St. N.
