Well here it is guys. The final programme from Period May - July

Save it, Print it and put it somewhere you can always see it. There is a lot happening so it’d be great to see you all go to as much as possible.

We won’t be sending you SMS’s about every activity anymore. We’ll send an email reminding you about what’s happening and any fine details you might need to know, but it’s up to you guys now to check the program to see what’s happening.

If you have any problems or questions, PLEASE ask me or Graham! You have our details, so use them if you need to!

We would also appreciate if you could let us know if you are going to an activity, just so we guesstimate what numbers are going to be there.

YIS, see you all soon.

Hi guys, half of your new crew leader here.

This email is to update you all as to what Flash is doing right now, and more importantly, how you can easily get involved and have some fun. There are heaps of opportunities to have an awesome time. All you guys need to do is read up about what is happening, let us know if you can or can’t go, and then turn up. Easy as that!

After tonight’s business meeting, it was voted that myself and Graham will take the reigns as joint crew leaders of Flash. Anyway, enough of the business stuff : Here’s what’s happening in Flashland in the coming weeks, months, etc.

EV is coming up very soon - next weekend in fact - and we are still wanting as many people as we can get to come along and help out! EV will be a great opportunity for all you Flashers (and some non-flashers) to get to know each other (and other Rovers) and more importantly, to give some Venturers a bit of stick. The weekend consists of us running activities for the Venturers, and then socialising with other Rovers at night. The cost will be about $40 for the weekend, food included. If you want to go (which I recommend all of you do), then please let Graham know, either by email or through the convenient contact us form . If you need a tent or think you might need help getting up there just let him know (and also any food allergies you might have).

Make sure all of you look at the programme! I know it isn’t 100% at this stage, but if you like the look of something then please contact the person in charge and get involved. Rovers is all about having an awesome time, but it’s up to you guys to take the initiative and to put your hands up. Us on the exec will plan the programme and do all the dirty work, but please, if you want to do something - let us know! My number is below, my MSN is king_simo69 at hotmail dot com or you can email me, or you can use the contact us form. There’s no excuse why you can’t contact us! A detailed programme of the next few months will be out shortly, but for now it’s as follows:

• EV next weekend. Leave Adelaide Thursday 13^th at night, leave again on Monday the 17^th afternoon.
• Investitures/linkups on the 30th of April. Possibly with sixty4, our host crew.
• Vent Promo night on the 12th of May, Vent Challenge night on the 19th of May (both Friday nights)
• If you guys have forgotten, read below about going to Bogong for a week in the snow. I’ve already registered, as have Cam and Dylan.

There is also Phrolic, cow pat bingo, paintballing and other humorous activities on the agenda. In the next few months we’ll be doing a lot more inter-crew as well as inter-section activities. And as most of us are just starting out in rovers, we’ll also be looking at running a few overnight activities/camps just for a bit of fun and to get to know eachother. Hopefully we can also start getting out amongst the community and doing our little bit in the way of service. Let us know if you have any ideas for what you want to do.

That’s all for now - keep in touch. Make sure you constantly check back to this website, and your emails if you’re on the mailing list.

Cheers guys,

Yours in Flashing, Rovering, Scouting, (drinking), etc.

Don’t you hate it when fluro lights start to flicker? They flash on and off, on, off, on, off. It’s enough to drive anyone mad. Eventually, they stop, and even though it’s now dark, it’s still a welcome relief from in the incessant flashing. Well so it is with Flash Rovers. Due to lack of participation and funding we have been forced to temporarily shut down the crew until further notice. There will be no more activities and you will need to contact scout HQ to change your membership details. This is important! - if you continue to attend rover events without changing your crew, you will no longer be covered by insurance.

Yours in Rovering,
Cameron Roy
