Thynne said she was more
than pleased with the parent
participation.
Although the Cubs and
Scouts were disappointed
that they did not have a full
truck load of paper, the price
of paper was exceptionally
high, and with the help of the
donated trucks, they were
able to make some money
from that project.
They were pleased with
the response with the paper
collection in Belgrave, but
felt the paper had already
been collected in Bluevale
and Whitechurch.
Another drive will be held
in the spring and house-
holders are urged to save
papers for the boys. Old
magazines and catelogues
also are acceptable. The
boys obtained some money
from the baskets they
collected.
A returnable bottle drive
will be held early in the new
year and a committee will be
set up at the next meeting to
start working on it.
Mrs. Thynne, reporting for
the BeOvers, said she had
three full-fledged leaders
besides herself and several
helpers. Dennis O'Brien took
the Wood Badge Part 1 in
Port Elgin, and it was
reported that all new leaders
have been outfitted with new
uniforms.
