Dear 229HKG parents and youth members,
The 2011-2012 Scout Promise Making (宣誓) and Re-Making (覆誓) for grasshopper socuts, cub scouts, scouts and venture scouts concerned, as well as appointment of new SPLs/PLs/APLs/Sixers/Seconds, will be held on 3 Dec (Sat) at 4:00-5:30pm at the open area (G/F) of HKUGAC. Note that, depending on the preparatory work of each section, you may be requested by your section leader to show up earlier then 4:00pm.
Details of the rundown can be found at this link 3 Dec – Rundown.
A number of changes have been introduced this year to bring the 229HKG practice in line with Scout Association guideline. Among the many changes, which will be shared with you by your section leaders, there are two major ones which I would like to highlight here:
1. Scout Promise Making for leaders has been removed from the rundown and will be held separately;
2. PLs/APLs/Sixers/Seconds assumed the same post as last year do not need to join the appointment ceremony this year.
Cub scouts, scouts and venture scouts are reminded to bring/put on scout sweater as the temperature will drop to and stay at 14-15 degrees in the next few days. Non-scout sweater/jacket are not scout uniform. Cub scouts, scouts and venture scouts do not conform with scout uniform guideline will be requested not to join the ceremony.
Could grasshopper scouts, cub scouts, scouts venture scouts concerned (the names are highlighted in blue in the rundown) please be well prepared for the ceremony – in particular the questions/answers, Scout Promise and Scout Law. Check with your section leader as soon as possible if you don’t know what/how to prepare.
Please feel free to contact your section leader or me should you have any queries.
Yours in Scouting,
Ray Kwok
