CCA Fair

Greetings,


The date for this year's CCA Fair has been confirmed: 9th January. Why is CCA Fair important? It is a time for all CCAs to display/showcase - who they are, what they do and why people join/ should join. The fair gives the Sec 1s a better idea of what we do as Scouts.

Just like any major event, preparation will be vital for our success.

The Venture Candidates will be in charge of the whole operation. They will need your cooperation in order to make this a success and benefit both the Venture and Scout unit.

You are also required to prepare your full scout uniform for the fair: Shirt and pants must be ironed, boots polished, berets seasoned, badges sewn properly, woggle not faded, belts not rusty/spoiled, scout socks are to be worn, scarfs must have 5 folds (2 above the woggle & 3 below it), epaulets are to be put on.

Please note that everyone is required to fall-in outside the den for preparation. Details are listed below.


Event: CCA Fair Preparation
Date: 7th January 2009
Venue: St. Gabriel's Secondary School
Assembly Time: 1530 hrs
