See me with some Guider friends on the last night of Guiding at The Salvation Army in Peterborough (no prizes if you guess which one is me!)

Some of our events this past year have included:

• Apple Day
• Brotherhood Int'l Camporee
• Hikes
• Senior's Home Visits (campfire)
• Divine Service Parade
• Security at District Cub Camp
• Brownsea Base
• Visit to The Ont. Fed. of Anglers and Hunters
• Visit to Voyageur Canoe Company
• FRISBEE GOLF!

We are a small but active Scout troop and Beaver colony here in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada. We will be posting pictures here and some programme ideas that we have come up with.

Some of theses postings may not be considered truly "Scouting" items, but are included because I feel they are appropriate in terms of youth leadership and Christian beliefs.

As a teacher, I come across things that can be useful in Scouting circles. I'm sure you will, too. If you use any of these, please let me know how successfully it worked for your group.
