LISTOWEL (519) 291-9633 Fax 291-9634 By Janice Becker - More than 30,000 young men from 90 countries, will soon gather for two weeks of camping on a dry lake bed in Holland, and a youth from Hullett Twp. will be amongst them. Chris Knox, 16, the son of Barb and Mel Knox of RR1, Blyth, has been given the opportunity of a lifetime to participate in the 18th Annual World Jamboree for Scouts and Venturers. Chris, one of only three in this region attending, will leave for Dronten, Flevoland, Holland on July 27, including a four-day pre- jamboree camp in Britain, where he will join up with 600 other Canadi- ans participating in the jamboree. The camp is designed strictly for 14 to 18-year-olds who have attained their Chief Scout or Ven- turer Exploration Activity award .and with the jamboree held once every four years, each boy has only one opportunity to attend. Once at the jamboree, the boys will be kept busy with various workshops, activities, trading ses- sions and seminars including topics Greeters at Londesboro United Church on Sunday, July 16 were Orville and Reta Kelland. Ushers were Carrie Salverda ana Debbie Hoggart. Ruth Vincent sang a solo, The Lost Cord, accompanied by Gail Lear on the piano. such as health, nature and environ- mental education, human rights, travel around the world and music, just to name a few. As a member of the Blyth Scouts and Huron district troop, Chris says he has gained a great deal from his involvement. Besides the many camping and canoeing trips, Chris says he has learned first aid through the Scouts and participated in activities which involved a lot of work, but were still fun. "The scouts offer a well-rounded program," says Barb. "The boys learn wilderness survival, get involved in the planning and orga- nization for the trek, must work together as a team and religious and moral aspects are discussed. It is more than what is learned as part of a sports team." "Everyone is expected to pull their weight regardless of their abil- ities and they must help each other," says Mel. As a Scout member for seven years, Chris has acted as activity leader for the cub pack for two years. Norman and Annie Vincent and Willis and Marie Bromley donated flowers to landscape the church. The sermon topic was "Discovering God Anew, Part 5 - with the Carpenter of Nazareth. "By the time the boys reach the Venturer age, they should start giv- ing something back to the pro- gram," says Barb. "Chris is really enjoying being the leader." Venturing Venturer Chris Knox of RR1, Blyth, will be leaving soon for the 18th Annual World Scouting Jamboree in Holland. Demand for electricity is strongly linked to economic growth.
