27th November; Schoolies week, but its getting even better at
Underwood. |
Firstly our friends in scouting from Padova, Italia, have asked for a
message of peace. So we created a little video for them to show at their
festival. We will hear more about this later after christmas. |

2nd November Sausage Sizzle Fundraiser |
What a great day. We had balloon animals up on the stall. Parents were
really good with help spreading the effort over several families. Some good
conversation and some fun. I did not manage to blow up the latex glove over
my head completely. The fingers stuck up to look like the comb of a rooster
- except white. And we sold lots of sausages in rolls. |

24th - 26th October Underwood Group Camp in beauty of Mt Tamborine. |
Lovely bush settings for walks, while parents may want to visit many tourist
spots nearby. An excellent environment for games and scouting. |

Underwood scouts provides a fun way of learning leadership,
adventure skills and sense of community through crafts, outdoor activity and
challenges. Scouting at Underwood is for boys and
girls from ages 6 to 18 in groups called Joeys, Cubs, Scouts and Venturers.
Scouts helps young people to meet and conquer challenges and enables them to
develop a sense of personal self, worth and confidence.

meeting times) or leave a message at our Scout
