Feb 4 Meeting Program-Confucius Carnival Service

Dear Scouts,

We would have another service Next Saturday ( Feb 4).

Please find information on the Confucius Carnival 2012, including the stage performance program and our Sponsor, UGA’s press conference with Ms Nancy Sit ( Ambassador for the Carnival) on 22/12/2011, at the website:  http://www.hkuga.org/ConfuciusCarnival.

This is the third year UGA is helping to organise the Confucius Carnival, 229 has had different degree of participation in the past. Joint organisers for this year  Carnival include the Wanchai District Council. 229 is one of the  assistant/ supporting organizers etc for the event alongside the HK Tourism Board etc. Our Wee Wee & Grasshopper sections would, similar to last year, be performing on stage. Our Venture section would be running one of the event booths. And scout section would assist with the ceremony & keeping order for the event.  The objective of the carnival is to Promote Chinese traditional values. There would be Dragon Dance, Chinese Costume Catwalk, Chinese Orchestra & Dance performance, plus booth games.

There would be local and overseas participants. So please wear tidy Scout uniform–you would be representing the troop as well as serving as a junior ambassadors of HK! Pls bring drinking water and assemble at the entrance of the carnival which I expect would be easy to find. If you are in doubt, contact your PL/SPL. Duty SPL is Charlie Cheang.

Please complete the  parent consent form and indicate whether you would attend the whole event or the 1:30pm – 4:30 pm or 3:30 pm to 7:30 pm sessions, and submit the form this Saturday to your PL/ APL. Late submission should be by email with copy to me and Charlie. PLS NOTE NIL RETURN IS REQUIRED IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND.

WISHING YOU ALL  A WONDERFUL YEAR OF THE DRAGON!
