[Oct-01] Apple Day is an annual and national Scouts Canada event. Beaver and Cub Scouts go out in to the community and hand out apples and receive donations in exchange. All funds raised go to help with our youth programming, which includes camping and other events.

[September] Both the Beavers and Cubs were out early this year kicking-off the season, camping in Golden Ears Park and Camp Whonnock, in Maple Ridge, B.C; even the Venturers were at Camp Mardi-Gras in Gibson’s B.C. The youth learned some valuable skills, including how to handle knives safely, build campfires, apply basic first-aid, and of course… we fit a few songs, skits and cheers in.

[Jun-03/04] Group wide camp including all sections at the Greater Vancouver Zoo. What a great way to finish off a busy and fun-filled Scouting season, can’t wait for next year!

[May-30] Many youth and Scouters from all sections completed an official Good Turn Week project at the Ridge Meadows Hospital.  Funded by Scouts Canada, we were able to refurbish existing garden boxes, build new boxes, plant flowers, brought in some fresh soil and mulch, and planted a new Douglas Fir tree to replace one that blew down in a recent windstorm.

Here is a write-up and additional pictures about the project on the Scouts Canada site: http://one.scouts.ca/goodturnweek/all-project-list/hospital-garden-enhancement/

[Apr-01/03] Our Group held a linking camp at Golden Ears Provincial Park for 3rd year “white tail” Beavers joining Cubs at camp, and 3rd year “howler” Cubs joining Scouts at camp and on an adventurous 24km trek up to Alder Flats. Some beach fun, knot / compass work, and campfires were enjoyed all weekend long.

[Feb-21] Our annual 1st Haney Group Baden Powell Banquet was held this year at Camp Whonnock. A great turnout of youth, Scouters, and families across all sections. Our Beaver and Cub sections received their Program Quality Awards and Danielle received her Medal for Good Service, congratulations!

[Nov-28 to Dec-22] This month includes our largest Group fundraiser. All proceeds go to support our Group, program activities, and of course, the youth! Come out and support our Group and pick up your Christmas Tree today!

[Nov-11] This special day of remembrance was marked with a procession down 224th Street to Memorial Peace Park, and an observance of ceremonies to remember those that fought for our freedom. We had a great turnout with about 70 youth and Scouters from the 1st Haney Group.

[Nov-09] Investiture Ceremonies were held tonight; many new Beavers, Cubs and Scouts joining the ranks, as well as a new Scouter.
