Penrith City Monopoly Run - closing soon
Sun 23rd Feb 2020 (9am to 5.30pm)
For Founders Day 2020, Penrith City District is introducing a great new activity - the Penrith City Monopoly Run!
We have turned key locations within the greater Penrith CBD into Monopoly Board Squares. Your teams job is to travel around by foot or bus (No Bikes, Scooters or Cars - Sorry Guys) and find each of our key locations.
When you are there, take a photo of your team and send it to us - If you are the first team to arrive, you have the option of buying the location and earning rent from other teams - otherwise you will need to pay rent 🙁
The team with the most money at 4:00pm wins!
Following the event, we will all join together back at the Lethbridge St Scout Hall for a BBQ Dinner.
This event is a full uniformed event and teams will be made up of 4-7 team members from mixed sections. Teams will be made up on the day.
Parents and Families are welcome to attend. Parents of Cubs and Joeys must attend unless they are willing to have thier kids supervised by a Venturer or Rover.
Bring your own Lunch, Opal Card and Snacks. Cost of event is for dinner and trophies.
Parents please register your youth members. new chums please enter 0 when asked for member number.

Cub parents today would have been the day your cub would of been off to cuboree. I think with the current fire conditions everyone would agree the best decision was made to cancel the event for the health and safety of all. The group would like to thank the organisers for all the hard work they have put in over the last 2 years in making this event happen.
Cuboree merchandise is being picked up tomorrow.
Tuesday night panther pack can collect on Tuesday night at South Penrith hall at 6.15pm or the first night back. If you aren't available Tuesday and wish to collect it before the first night please contact rock via the usual methods.
Thrusday night Glenmore pack will be given out first night back.
St Marys can be collected Tuesday night at South Penrith hall or it will be given out first night back. Kaa will be collecting it on Tuesday night please contact him if you wish to collect another time.
