PAST EVENTS

SPRING CAMPOUT

The Grand Tetons and North Stars hosted a great Spring Campout April 18-20. The weather was much better than expected and the fish were biting! Many Guides Graduated from the program Saturday night at the Graduation ceremony, and will hopefully consider joining Guides Plus.

The solemn Graduation ceremony marks the bittersweet end to the Spring campout and membership in the Adventure Guides program for 20 little braves.

Donations

Please see the linked example of Donation Letterhead that the Lake Erie recently used successfully when seeking donations from local businesses for their Bingo Event.

CURRENT EVENT

The new Chiefs Scholarship Fund has been a great success. So far, over $6,000 has been raised which is well on our way to the magic number of $50,000. This worthwhile project, sponsored by the past Guide Chiefs, seeks to establish a college scholarship fund for past little Guides who are now graduating High School. Your fund raising help is needed and will provide much needed support for former Guides going onto the adventure of College. For more information on this new program, click on this informative Chiefs Scholarship link.

Both the Chief and Sage Guide's program patches need to be redesigned. All little guides are encouraged to submit new patch designs to the Chief. The winning patch designers will receive prizes and recognition of their talents. Stay tuned for more information on this exciting competition.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Leadership Council Reps: next Council Meeting will be Tuesday, May 20th in the South Community YMCA. Let's plan on all outgoing Longhouse Reps and incoming Longhouse reps attending this meeting. This will serve as the transition meeting so that everything can be handed off properly.
