Our all section Christmas Party is this coming Monday evening, December 19th. We will be at Faith Baptist (across from the Irving).

Please note there will not be a gift exchange, instead we are asking that the youth bring a non-perishable food item to donate to the food bank. The party for all youth will be at the Beavers and Cubs regular time of 6:30pm.

This will be a games night in the gymnasium, and just an informal social event. Uniforms are not required.

We would appreciate each youth also brings snacks or drinks to share with the group.

Parents are welcome to pick up their Beaver or Cub any time after 7:30pm, but the party will be done for the Beavers and Cubs at 8pm.

If the Scouts are staying until 9pm, D.A. will let you know.

This is our last event for 2011. 

The Village has asked us once again to help out at the New Maryland Christmas Tree Lighting and Candle Light Walk

It is Thursday, December 1st. 

We have been asked to have some Scouts (and Senior Cub Scouts) hand out the candles. We need to be there at 6:30pm. In full uniform (neckers on the outside of the jacket please).

All youth from all sections should come out in uniform, but where we are handing out lit candles, only the older youth can do that, but the younger ones can help them out!

After the tree lighting there will be a candlelight walk from Victoria Hall to Faith Baptist Church where there will be hot chocolate, apple cider, caroling and treats!

Santa Claus might stop by!

We are going to be participating in the Fredericton Santa Claus Parade again this year. We hope we can get a good turnout of Youth for the event, which is being held on November 26th.

I will have more details as they become available, but this is what we have so far:

Parade Route: North side – Parade will form up in the parking lots of the Nashwaaksis Middle School as directed by the Kinsmen. The parade will leave from this area, turn left on Fulton Avenue, down Fulton Avenue to Main Street, turning right up Main, then right at Brookside Drive, out Brookside Drive crossing the Ring Road to the Brookside Mall (entering on Reynolds Street) where the parade will disembark.

Please note: All float entries/participants are to enter the middle school area via Carrington Lane where they will be directed by the Kinsmen.

Arrival Time: We are float number 12. The Youth need to be at the site around 4pm, 4:30 at the latest.

Please make sure your Beaver/Cub/Scout is dressed properly for the weather, as they will be sitting on the float for a couple hours, and it does get cold.

Parade Start Time: Sharp 5:00pm

Parade Date - November 26th
