With Spring now upon us.
More and more of the sections are now starting to venture outdoors to do activities.
I have been busy over the past 2 months.
Here is what I have been up to.
I started off March with Investing Callum Robertson from the 48th Beavers.
I had a meeting with Alex Duncan (Regional Commissioner) at Fordell Firs to discuss the way forward for the District.
The main highlight during March was our district leaders skill weekend which was held at Fordell Firs.
The purpose of the weekend was for leaders to learn new skills or develop old ones.
We had 50 leaders attend the weekend and the feedback has been positive and that the leaders would like to hold a similar event in the future.
During the social night at the weekend several training certificates and revised warrants were handed out.
Also Douglas Knight and Iain Cusator were presented with their 5 year service award and Darrian Wilson received his 20 year award.
I went and help the inch active support unit pack the Scottish pathfinder up at Fordell Firs.
I have attended several meetings – District Exec, District Active support and a Regional DC meeting held in Glenrothes.
I assisted SHQ in running a ESL(YL) course in Aberfeldy.
The beavers held their Challenge day competition held at Inverkeithing high school in which 6 colonies attended.
Well done to all that took part and congratulations to the 48th Donibristle for winning the cup.
I attended the Rosyth explorer scouts gang show where Jaqueline Dewar and Catt Robertson were invested on stage.
I attended a scouts leaders meeting to arrange the forth coming totem competition.
We also held a sport day committee meeting to arrange the district sports day.
I visited the 77th during their week camp at Fordell Firs.
The big camping weekend in April was our St George’s camp.
We had 207 members attend during the weekend.
During the weekend we had a renewal of promise service which was followed by a camp fire.
During the service I presented 3 wood badges to leaders from the 77th Kelty.
Congratulations to all.
Lastly I attended a course to learn about trusties and their roles.
This was run by SHQ and was held at the King Malcolm hotel in Dunfermline.
