No Scout meeting on 17 Mar 07

Dear all,

There will be NO SCOUT MEETING for this coming sat (17 March 2007). You have work hard for the Job Week and deserve some times for your school homework. Please use the Sat off wisely to complete the school holidays homework.

However, the sec 4s Scouts need to report back this Sat from 9am to 1pm for Campfire preparation. Fawwaz and Yu Hui are to return the Job Week cards this Sat @9.30am to the GSL.

The Scout Group next focus will be our 85th Anniversary Celebration and 69th Campfire on the 14 April 2007.

Lastly, we did not meet the Group Job Week target of $20 000 this year. Hence we have to work harder for the last fund raising "Donation Draw" in May.
