Calendar
Scouts will be needed to help put up the Scout dining fly, Flagpole for the Rotary Club Australia Day Celebrations.
This is a service that 1st Winston Hills has performed for our community for many years with the scouts skills & enthusiasm showcased to the community.
Many people have made the Great decision to become Australians & have taken the Oath to our Country under a WH Scout tarp over the years as Scout & Guide members perform the flag ceremony.
Be sure come along in your full Uniform & get stuck in to loading the trailer straight away as soon as you get to the hall ,then we must have everything up & ready by 7.40 am. Then you can exchange holiday stories & enjoy your reward of breakfast for your efforts.
As usual we will need at least 2 teams 1 for the Dining Fly and 1 for the flag pole.
Please do your best to attend the more scouts to help the better.
The activity is nominated to end at 11.00am but sometimes runs overtime.

Closure of Small Pools
During Joey and Cub Events District Leaders and assigned parent helpers will provide supervision at the small pools. Pool staff will be directed to close the small pools that are not in use immediately after the joey and cub activities finish. There will be no supervision for younger children when the Joeys / Cubs carnival finishes and parents are directed to make arrangements to either supervise the younger ones themselves or take them home and return to collect the Scouts at the end of the night. It is considered too dangerous for younger siblings to be running around the pool area unsupervised by their parents.
THIS IS A YOUTH PARADE ORGANISED BY THE SEVEN HILLS RSL …WE MARCH IN FORMATION WITH OTHER YOUTH GROUPS ALONG BOOMERANG PLACE , FIRST AVE AND BEST ROAD….THE POLICE ARE ON HAND AND STOP TRAFFIC DURING THE MARCH…FAMILY ARE WELCOME TO PHOTOGRAPH THEIR SCOUTS MARCHING AND JOIN THE MEMORIAL SERVICE AT THE CLUB.
