The summer went fast - it’s

back to school time. I would

like to welcome back all the

new and returning Scouters

and youth to the 2018 and

2019 scouting year.

Congratulation to all the

sections that have achieved

the Program Quality Award.

Also, please remember to complete your PQA Sea-

sonal Review for the summer.

Greetings from your Area

Youth Commissioner

HAMILTON-WENTWORTH VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

We are still looking for Area volunteers for the following positions:

Deputy Area Commissioner Events: to assist Event coordinators

and Camp Chiefs

EQUIPMENT TEAM

Since all equipment must be self-funded, we initi-

ated a daily charge-out rate. With the help of the

HELP DESK, as before with bookings, they will be collecting the neces-

sary fees which will be returned to Equipment. If we don’t do this, we

will have no equipment for Youth Programs.

I heard that the current rental is the same as a bunch of years ago!

John Augstman, DAC PROJECTS / AREA SECRETARY

HICOP NEWS

HICOP - Now is in our 10th YEAR!

The HICOP centre will be open and staffed every Saturday from 10

am to 4 pm.

We offer outdoor programming to help you with your Scouting

requirements. Come in and see the displays, handle and touch the

items in the centre - ask questions - learn new things about the out-

doors. Book in advance and we will provide a two-hour program

for any section. We are able to also provide Sunday and weekday

evenings on request.

Ever thought about taking your group to camp for a regular night

meeting? We provide great night hikes that can include a campfire

with hot chocolate waiting for you when we get back to the centre.

Why not bring your youth out and maybe get to hear the sounds of

camp at night!

We are losing some of our trails. The trail that was beside the creek

leading up to crows nest will be closed as it is unsafe due to erosion

and our trail that use to run beside the farmers’ field to the west,

has had to be moved due to the removal of all hawthorn trees that

protected our camp/trail. As this section of our camp had been left

exposed, the new owners have finally put up a fence but this trail

was still open to the elements. The trail is now being moved into

the forest that runs behind Anniversary Lodge to Harvester Lodge.

We will also be adding a Beaver “Story Tree” similar to the one at

Camp Impessa. Stay tuned for further updates.

Please Do Not Remove any structures that appear to be “blocking”

a pathway as these are to help with the closure of the old trails.

Please follow the new markers.

Stay on the trail - by staying on the trail, you avoid making “short

cuts” that others will follow. This is especially important on the

switch backs to avoid additional erosion.

Do Not build debris huts on the trail (or any other

structure). We have found a number of them over the

past couple of years that we had to dismantle after you

left them there.

Do Not make ANY fires on the trails unless they are a

LNT - If you don’t know what this means you need to book our LNT

program!This is extremely dangerous as some of our forests have a

good layer of coniferous needles on the ground and fire can travel un-

derground!

SAP TAP was a huge success this spring, thanks to the many youth

and scouters that came out to learn how tree sap can be turned into

delicious syrup!

Please try to give ample notice of your request so that we can prepare

for your event and ensure that we are staffed accordingly.

Book at http://hicop.ca/

Please take the time to explore our website and see what we have to

offer your group. http://hicop.ca/

Come join us!

Scouters Rob, Linda, Rick, Mike, Sandra, Rob and Denise

HAPPY NEW SCOUTING YEAR!

First, I would like to welcome the new Deputy Area Com-

missioner, Beverley Brown-McKenna. I look forward to

working with her and her input in the area.

Welcome also to our new Popcorn Coordinator, Kim Ellis!

This Dispatch is full of ideas and opportunities for new adventure. I hope you will

accept new ideas and challenges with optimism and excitement. If you Do Your Best

to Be Prepared, and Review your weaknesses and successes, your program can only

go up.

I hope you are as excited to hear your youths ideas for this new year as I am.

Happy Scouting.

See you on the Path. Jacqueline Howard

EQUIPMENT USER FEES

In order to help cover the cost of repair and replacing the available equipment, a fee is now charged

for SNOWSHOES and CANOES.

SNOWSHOES

There are aluminum or wooden snowshoes. They can be booked for a single day at $2 a pair or for a weekend at $4.

CANOES

Currently there are 2 trailers of 6 canoes each stored at Camp Nemo. The trailers are locked with separate keys. The paddles, PFDs and

Safety kits are at Scout House. The fee for each canoe with paddles, PFD and safety kit is $5 for a single day or $10 for the weekend.

There will soon be a third trailer with lightweight canoes to be used only for portage trips. These canoes are more expensive so the higher

rate is $10 per day or $20 for the weekend.

Trailer keys and insurance certificate will be available through the Help Desk.

When picking up the equipment, payment is to be made either in cash or by cheque. Cheques are written to “SCOUTS CANADA”. In the

PATROL CORNER

Mourning the Death of a Friend

“If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you

to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to.

Find out how other people live, eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you

go.”

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it

even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should

change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your

body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”

“Maybe that’s enlightenment enough: to know that there is no final resting place of the mind; no

moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom...is realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I

have yet to go.” ~ Anthony Bourdain

Just as the June Dispatch was going to press, I heard the news that Anthony Bourdain was dead. It has been more than eight weeks

since his death, and still I struggle to put to paper what is in my heart. Some people are close because they are friends or family, but

others are close because you relate to them. Anthony was one of the people I related to. There are people you come across in this life,

that although you have never met them, they have a deep impact on you. When they leave this life before their time, this impact is

heightened even further. I experienced this with the death of John Candy, Princess Diana and Robin Williams, all of whom died be-

fore their time, but from different causes. The most difficult of these for me to deal with was Robin Williams suicide.

Suicide has touched us all. One of my Uncles killed himself, and I have many friends with a suicide in their family. I keep hearing

"Dire Straits" in my head, with the line "Why worry? There should be laughter after pain. There should be sunshine after rain. These

things have always been the same. So why worry now?" What causes someone to take the pain that we all feel at times, and allow it

to take over? I remember reading a book by Richard Bach, in which he is lamenting to himself that he doesn't belong in this world,

with its wars and conflicts, famines and floods, and a voice inside him said "You say that you don't belong here in this world with its

wars and destruction - what are you doing here?" The ball was back in his court - was he here to make a difference, teach, learn?

When Eckhart Tolle contemplated his own suicide, he remembers saying "I cannot live with myself", and then something inside him

asked "Who am I?" And "Who is the self that I cannot live with?" Then he asked himself "What part of me is the part that I can't live

with?" He says his ego died that night.

And then my mind returns to Anthony Bourdain. In his show "Parts Unknown", Anthony asked some of the simplest questions. Are

you happy? What makes you happy? What do you like about life here? How could things be better? I would love to be able to ask

him the same questions. He was so good at breaking through other people's walls - is it possible no-one penetrated his? Bourdain had

the ability to make the world smaller. Warmer. Somehow less scary. Without him, the world is just a little bit cold-

er. A little more lonely. The things that came across so clearly from listening to Anthony Bourdain were his sense

of humour, his search for truth, his non-partisan politics, his love of life and his belief in the human spirit. I still

feel a sense of loss - he will be missed.

In Scouting, we are not immune to the demons Anthony struggled with. In my years in Scouting, I have known at

least five youth who were suicidal, and probably others who went unnoticed. Scouters and parents have some-

times struggled with the same demons. This issue of "Dispatch" is meant to, among other things, welcome new

Scouters into the fold, and I do sincerely welcome you all, as well as all of you that are returning! In Scouting, we

sometimes deal with a myriad of challenges with youth, including ADD, ADHD, Autism Spectrum, OCD, ODD,

to name just a few. Suicide awareness and prevention is yet another thing to incorporate into our ever vigilant duty of

care. I look forward to meeting you all on the path, and know that together, we can leave the world a better place than

we found it!

"The most worth-while thing is to try to put happiness into the lives of others"

"A Scout is never taken by surprise; he knows exactly what to do when anything unexpected happens"

"A Scout smiles and whistles under all circumstances" - Lord Robert Baden-Powell

Good Scouting!

Yours in Scouting,

Scouter John "Blade" Wilkinson [email protected]

Both of the 58TH HAMILTON Cub Scout Packs joined together at Guelph Lake Conservation Area for summer camp just as

summer arrived, June 15 - 17, 2018. What a great weekend for 24 Cub Scouts and 2 White Tail Beaver Scouts! The Cub Scouts

toured a very small part of the park, decorated water bottles, cooked hot dogs over the fire and learned to canoe, fish and light

a fire. They also had a great time swimming and playing at the beach.

16 of the Cub Scouts and White Tail Beaver Scouts learned the basics of snorkelling while accomplishing some requirements

for the Aquatics Outdoor Adventure Skill Awards. They also ate (quite well, actually), thanks to our cooks Anj, Mario and

Glenn. The Cub Scouts built tool boxes, had a great campfire and made SMOR's. On Sunday, they packed up, played some

games and had a Cubs' Own before departing for home. There are a lot of people to be thanked for making the weekend pos-

sible, starting with the great staff at Guelph Lake Conservation Area, Hamilton-Wentworth Area Scouting for providing the

canoes, trailer, paddles, PFD's and boat kits, to the family that towed the trailer to and from camp, to Bob's Scuba Shop for

providing the snorkel gear and to Anj for teaching the kids how to use it safely and properly. Last, but for from least, we

thank our 3 Service Scouts for being there to help as we needed it, Aidan, Jessie and Alex. The Canadian Path was well trod!!

Safe Disposal of “Sharps”

What to do if we find a disposed needle

in a public place while walking, hiking

or cleaning up in a service project?

In Hamilton, we are to call the city num-

ber,

905–546–CITY (2489) to report and they will arrange a way to get it

picked up. They say the term they use is "Sharps" and they commit

to picking them up either from public or private property within

one business day of the report.

Do not touch it or try to dispose of it yourself.

Protect yourself and others.

Remember 905 – 546 – CITY (2489)
