Huron Expositor, 2006-12-20, Page 24Joe Steffler, representing the Seaforth Community Development Trust, pre- sents a cheque worth $2,000 to Derrick Rath, of the Seaforth Cubs. News The Huron Expositor • December 20, 2006 Page 23 Trust donates $2,000 to Cubs Susan Hundertmark Ten Seaforth Cubs will be going to a weeklong national jamboree near Acton, thanks to a $2,000 donation from the Seaforth Community Development Trust. The Central Canada Cub Jamboree will be one of several events celebrating the 100th anniversary of Scouting around the world and will be held at the same time as the World Jamboree on Brownsea Island in England and the Canadian Scout Jamboree in Montreal. "This is like the Olympics of Scouting. It's a big deal," says Seaforth Cub leader Derrick Rath. Rath says over 1,000 kids will be attending the cub jamboree including all of the Seaforth cubs. "We don't have a very big pack so our goal is to send everyone,". he says, adding that two or three leaders will also be attend- ing. The camp will have a different theme each day, including nature, the envi- ronment, the history of Scouting and climate change. As well, since Cubs are based on Rudyard Kipling's book The Jungle Book, evenings will be based on the theme, In the Jungle with handicrafts, dances, songs, ceremonies, storytelling, playacting, games, costumes and masks. There will also be a video link to the interna- tional jamboree in England. "Our cubs have never been to a camp this big. It should be fun," says Rath. '. "' f" 'Sl.'.''$' ""1".
