The adventure begins here and opens the doors to all the adventures of Cubs, Scouts, Venturers and Rovers. We invite Beaver Scouts and Scouters to join in a year of imagination, fun and adventure as we celebrate 40 years of Beaver Scouts in Canada. Make it a whole year of celebrating in 2014-2015. This booklet is full of ideas and adventures to get your Beaver Scouts started in planning their activities and outings. 2014-15 also celebrates the kick-off of The Canadian Path, our new Scouts Canada program for all five Sections. The four key elements of The Canadian Path, which you will see reflected throughout this booklet, are: 1. Youth-led – Lord Baden-Powell created a program that was intended for the youth to do the leading with adult support. Beaver Scouts can be involved in choosing what their program will be. Not sure how to plan with Beaver Scouts? See our process at the end of the booklet. 2. SPICES – Scouts Canada’s programs develop youth in all aspects of their being: social, physical, intellectual, characterful, emotional and spiritual. 3. Plan-Do-Review – Every activity starts with Planning that involves the youth, has everyone take part in the Doing, and concludes with a constructive Review and celebration. 4. Adventure – Adventure is what we do best in Scouts: learning through the outdoors and seeking ways to personally challenge ourselves. Scouting is a Youth-Led program, so we’ve provided material to help you get your Beaver Scouts involved in choosing the adventures and activities that they would like to do to during this birthday year. At this age, Beaver Scouts have many imaginative and creative ideas that we can draw on to shape the activities of the Colony. Beaver Scouts are very capable of being actively involved in choosing their activities and in helping, in age-appropriate ways, to make the activities happen. At this level, Scouters will do more of the organizing, gathering of materials and making sure that everything is done in a safe and respectful way. Let the youth know that Beaver Scouts is celebrating its 40th birthday. Do they know anyone who is 40 years-old? Imagine all that has happened in 40 years. How can we celebrate the 40th birthday of Beaver Scouts? 1 Beaver’s 40th Anniversary BEAVER SCOUTS 40TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION THEMES There are four main themes for the 40th year, plus more activities. Your Beaver Scouts might like to try them all. Themes a. Lord & Lady Baden-Powell: getting to know the founders of Scouting b. Exploring 40 c. Forty Years of Beaver Scouting: what has happened in these 40 years? d. Beaver Scouts around the World: who are they and what do they do? Other Activities a. a birthday party with birthday cake focussed on “Sharing, sharing, sharing” b. a birthday campfire c. a birthday Beaver Scouts’ Own d. a birthday service project to help your community or the world 2 Beaver’s 40th Anniversary LORD ROBERT & LADY OLAVE BADEN-POWELL For the 40th Anniversary of Beaver Scouts, have some fun learning about Lord & Lady Baden-Powell with your Beaver Scouts. Here are some ideas the Beaver Scouts might choose to do: a. Share the brief history on the following pages. b. Find a copy of Scouting for Boys and look at the drawings done by Lord Baden-Powell. c. Try some of the activities that Lord Baden-Powell enjoyed, such as the Animal Stalking Game, drawing with both hands, and putting on plays. (See the following pages.) d. Mount the drawings together – left-hand and right-hand drawings – and have an art show for parents. You might sell the drawings to raise money for a 40th birthday service project. e. Do you know why we shake hands with our left hands in Scouting? It is something that Lord Baden-Powell learned when he was serving in the British Army in Africa. He saw that the Ashanti warriors would shake hands with their left hands to indicate both bravery and the desire for peace. This was because they held their shields in their left hands, and their spears in the right hand. It was a brave and courageous thing to put down the shield and extend the left hand in peace. Lord Baden-Powell felt these were good qualities for his Scouts: courage and peacefulness. The left hand is also the hand closest to the heart. A left handshake is meant to show peace and friendship. The Beaver Scouts can make their own shields out of cardboard, putting on it words and drawings that show who they are. Include the Beaver Scout motto, “Sharing, sharing, sharing,” or Beaver Scouts can make up their own mottos. Use duct tape to create a hand hold on the back. Then act out holding the shield in the left hand, and putting it down in order to shake hands with the left hand. f. Building on the meaning of the left handshake, explore the idea of peace in the world. Lord Baden-Powell wanted Scouting to help create peace around the world. Peace happens when we connect between cultures and faiths and peoples. What could your Beaver Scout Colony do that helps connect with other children of another culture/faith, another Beaver Scout Colony, or another part of your city/town? “Sharing, sharing, sharing” is our motto. What kind of sharing might you do that helps build peace? 3 Beaver’s 40th Anniversary WHERE BEAVER SCOUTS BEGAN! It all started with a man named Lord Robert Baden-Powell. In 1907, Lord B-P selected 22 boys to participate in a camping trip on Brownsea Island in England. That was the beginning of Scouting. In 1908, Lord B-P wrote a book called Scouting for Boys that outlined a program much like the program we follow today. The program included observation of nature,compass work, fire lighting skills, hiking, camping, tracking and first aid. Lord Baden-Powell had a sister named Agnes. She helped Lord B-P start the Girl Guides. Then Lord Baden-Powell married Olave Soammes in 1912. She became the Chief Girl Guide of the World. Lord B-P was the Chief Scout of the World. They travelled all around the world to meet Scouts and Guides in every country. Lord and Lady B-P shared the same birthday, February 22. That is the day we celebrate the good work of the Scouting Movement. Today, there are 216 countries that have Scouting Groups. In Canada, there are 100,000 Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Venturers, Rovers and Scouters. Boys and girls can be Scouts in Canada. The first Beaver Scouts Colony started in 1971 in Winnipeg, and then the idea caught on across Canada. In 1974, Beaver Scouts, for 5 to 7 year-olds, officially became part of the Scouts Canada program. 4 Beaver’s 40th Anniversary SOME OF BADEN-POWELL’S FAVOURITE ACTIVITIES! 1. Stalking Jungle Animals Lord B-P loved stalking (quietly following) jungle animals. Stalking doesn’t necessarily mean hunting; B.-P. loved quietly observing and sketching animals. Jungle Stalking Game: One Beaver is the wild animal at the watering hole. He/she is blindfolded and crouches in the middle of the room. This child has a flashlight and the room is darkened. The rest of the Beavers pretend to be Lord B-P. They must sneak up quietly on the wild animal in the centre (without it hearing them) and touch its shoulder (or steal some keys). If the wild animal hears them, it will roar (or make a sound appropriate to whatever animal the Beaver Scout has chosen to be) and shine the flashlight to tag the approaching Beaver with the light. When tagged, the Beaver must return to the side of the room and begin again. When someone successfully touches the wild animal, (or steals the object) he or she becomes the new wild animal in the centre. (Note: If the room can’t be darkened, the game can be played by having this child point a finger at the person he or she hears approaching.) 5 Beaver’s 40th Anniversary 2. Drawing Lord B-P loved drawing. He could draw equally well with both left and right hands.

  • Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a Proposal – December 2011

    Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a Proposal – December 2011

    Spirituality in the Scouts Canada Program a proposal – December 2011 Lord Baden-Powell & Duty to God God is not some narrow-minded personage, as some people would seem to imagine, but a vast Spirit of Love that overlooks the minor differences of form and creed and denomination and which blesses every [person] who really tries to do his [/her] best, according to his [/her] lights, in His service. in “Rovering to Success” Reverence to God, reverence for one’s neighbour and reverence for oneself as a servant of God, are the basis of every form of religion. in “Aids to Scoutmastership” Spirituality means guiding ones’ own canoe through the torrent of events and experiences of one’s own history and of that of [humankind]. To neglect to hike – that is, to travel adventurously – is to neglect a duty to God. God has given us individual bodies, minds and soul to be developed in a world full of beauties and wonders. in “The Scouter” January 1932 The aim in Nature study is to develop a realisation of God the Creator, and to infuse a sense of the beauty of Nature. in “Girl Guiding” Real Nature study means…knowing about everything that is not made by [humans], but is created by God. In all of this, it is the spirit that matters. Our Scout law and Promise, when we really put them into practice, take away all occasion for wars and strife among nations. The wonder to me of all wonders is how some teachers have neglected Nature study, this easy and unfailing means of education, and have struggled to impose Biblical instruction as the first step towards getting a restless, full-spirited boy to think of higher things.

The Beaver tail is important to them because it’s part of their mag - ical world, and they identify very closely with real beavers. Beaver tails symbolize the stages of development different age groups are going through. They’re concrete recognition that the children are growing bigger physically and developing socially and emotionally. Chapter 6 talks about understanding and working with Beavers. It also looks at characteristics and abilities of children in the Beaver age group, and suggests leaders take them into consid - eration when building programs. Tail groups are designed to help you do this effectively. PURPOSE OF TAILS Beaver tails have a special purpose. They are meant to celebrate personal change and growth in children at their specific age. Goals include, to: 4 Provide a means to build Beavers’ self-esteem by positive recognition of personal growth and development. 4 Provide Beavers with the opportunity to interact with peers who are at a similar stage of development. 4 Help leaders plan programs by grouping Beavers of similar abilities and levels of understanding. TAIL COLOURS The colours used for the Beaver tails (brown, blue and white) echo traditional Beaver colours and shades of brown and blue used in the Beaver hat and flag.

    FRIDAY FLYER 9Th April 2021

    FRIDAY FLYER 9th April 2021 A message from our County Commissioner By the time you read this, Easter will have passed but I hope you all had an enjoyable Easter weekend, such as it could be under the circumstances. Some of you also may now have held an outdoor face to face meeting with the girls, if you have done this I hope the weather has been kind and I am sure it has been lovely to see the girls again after so long. I am sure many of you will also be making tentative plans to restart indoor meetings ready for getting permission to do so. Good luck with those meetings as well. There are going to be many leaders who find face to face too much to cope with or too risky at this stage for a multitude of reasons and as we keep stressing, this is absolutely fine. If you are one of those leaders who feels they would like some extra support or would perhaps now like to try virtual meetings but are not sure how to start, please contact your commissioner who can find you the necessary support. We also currently have lots of girls on waiting lists, some I am sure will get a place once units restart but some will not as the units in that area are full. Perhaps we could have some county virtual units where these girls could start their Guiding until a place becomes available in a local unit. If you have enjoyed running virtual meetings and would love to get involved with something like this, then please get in touch with me – [email protected].

NO. 90 The ObserverFRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19,1993 THE INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER SERVING NOTRE DAME AND SAINT MARY'S Ferry sinks, at least 1 ,000 dead PETIT GOAVE, Haiti (AP} - A packed ferry carrying up to 1,500 people .sank in stormy seas off Haiti, and only 285 people were known to have survived, the Red Cross said Thursday. Survivors told how they clung to floating objects, in one case a bag of charcoal, to stay alive. "The sea was full of people," said one survivor, 29-year-old Madeleine Julien, from her hospital bed in this coastal town. "I kept bumping into drowned people." The ferry Neptune went down late Tuesday off Petit Goave, 60 miles west of the capital. But communications are so crude outside the capital it took a group of about 60 survivors a day to first report the accident. U.S. aircraft and vessels dispatched Thursday to help in search-and-rescue efforts reported "lots of debris and lots of bodies," said Coast Guard spokesman, Cmdr. Larry Mizell, liaison in Port-au­ Prince. The Coast Guard said it had found more than 100 bodies floating off Petit Goave. Bodies were earlier reported washing up on the beaches of Miragoane, 18 miles to the west of Petit Goave. Mizell said there was "no correlation between this and the boat people," referring to the tens of thousands of Haitians who have fled their homeland by sea since the army ousted elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991.
