The 3 days 2 nights Pantai Kerachut Hike and Camp has come to an end. We were all quite tired especially the form 1's and 2's who did their best in this camp. The Form 1's showed great interest in scouting meanwhile the Form 2's showed their leadership capabilities during this camp. All patrols competed fiercely and healthily. Who won Best Recruit?? Who won Best Overall?? Check out below to find out!
Best Sandcastle : Otter Patrol
Best Campfire : Beaver Patrol
Best Patrol Leader : Malcolm Tan (Beaver)
Best Recruit : Ryan Koay (Beaver)
Best Overall : Otter Patrol
Congratulations to those who won. Those who didn't win don't be sad , try harder next time and never give up.
The camp is tomorrow and we still have so many things to settle. Many things still need to be put together since we've worked on each part separately. It's going to be another long night tonight. We've not slept for the past few days, only taking very short naps now and then so we can complete our work.
Could we have avoided this situation if we had not taken our own sweet time preparing for the camp? Would it have made any difference if there weren't so many competitions? Would the situation be any better if we had more members? The reality is, it doesn't really matter. It is really up to us to make do with what we have.
The 8th Georgetown South Sea Scout Group will be organizing the Pantai Kerachut Hike and Camp. This camp is held specially for the new recruits of our troop. Many fun activities will be held there. This is the chance for you guys to take a closer look at the nature of our beloved Penang National Park. Attendance is compulsory for all form 1's to 4's . Details of the camp are stated below.

So, after days of hardwork recruiting members which culminated with the successful Recruitment Drive 2008, it's time to reflect on the success of the troop's efforts in relations to the other uniformed bodies. It is still a little too early to predict how many recruits we will be able to add to the troop membership but we can decide now the most impressive station this year. So, cast your vote above for the most impressive station at Recruitment Drive 2008!
We have stepped into the year 2008. We should all strive hard to produce a better future for ourselves and others. Here is an article I have came across when i was reading The Star on the 9th of Jan 08. Is it something 'Good' or 'Bad' going to happen?? . Click
