Apple Day - Fingers crossed that this event will go on for 2021!
Apple Day is a Scouting tradition that started right here in Canada! Through Apple Day youth receive donations from the public and present an apple in appreciation. Each Group selects sites to canvass including neighbourhood stores and other busy areas.
Money raised during Apple Day is shared between Scout groups and Camp Barnard. The group portion supports youth and their programs; the Camp Barnard portion helps to maintain this great facility while keeping camp fees affordable for groups using the facility. Aside from the important fundraising aspect of Apple Day, it is a great opportunity to show our neighbours that Scouting is thriving in the community and is worthy of support.

Christmas Tree Sales: ATTENTION SCOUTERS:
Plans are in place to once again fill the garden lot at View Royal Can Tire with beautiful Cowichan Valley trees! If you are able to assist by taking a shift, we would love to have your help. Need to keep staff numbers to a minimum for distancing. Maybe 2-per week night & 4 per weekend shift; senior youth welcome with parent or Scouter.
Funds raised will support operations and development at Camp Barnard in Sooke. This 251 acre camp is used by Scouting and many other youth groups.

Polar Bear Swim NOT TAKING PLACE AT CAMP BARNARD
The funds raised from this event will go towards repairs, maintenance, and on-going development at camp. Don’t think about how cold the water might be on New Years Day; think about the heated washroom building next to Mor, hot showers at Keego bathroom, the nice new porch at McPherson Lodge! These are the kinds of camp improvemments your fundraising supports!
Ways to particpate in the Polar Bear Swim;
- Sponsor someone to take the plunge on January 1st.
- Sponsor someone to not swim… total pledges in the “don’t have to swim column” allows the participant to avoid a refreshing dip if they want to… but why would they want to do that?
- Challenge others to take part… who can raise the most money to support Camp Barnard?
- Out of town on January 1st? why not make a direct donation to Camp Barnard or sponsor someone else to swim? Or take the plunge wherever you are!
