practised ' compass
bearings eaiily lin the

the rest of the meeting to
a brainstorming session
on how to raise_ funds for

One of the ways by
which Scouts hope to
raise money is through
the "Trees for Canada"
project. Scouts and senior
Cubs will be asking for
pledges for each tree they
plant during the "Big
Day" to, a maximum per
boy of 25jtrees.
"Dig Day" will be April
26th for the Scouts and
May 10 for the senior
Cubs. Although con-
centration on fund raising
is a major concern, badge
work continues. Tim
Craig has earned his
artist and collector
badges, and both Rodney
Freeman and Shawn
Semple have earned their
pet care badge.
"Dig Day" is go for this
Saturday 4o each Scout
should bring a bucket and
shovel to the event.
