Once again we went to visit the Toronto Police Marine Unit. Scouter Keith’s friend Bruce is the head of the Toronto Police Lifeguard Service which is based at the marine unit. The unit is responsible for all the waterways in Toronto, not just the lake. They’re trained in swiftwater rescue and have a dive team as well. After the station tour Bruce took us out on a police boat. We went through the eastern gap and raced around the island back to the western gap before heading home.

Santa thanks you
Thanks to everyone who helped out with delivering Santa parcels this year. Unfortunately, we’re always so busy that pictures usually get forgotten. I only got this one decent picture. We delivered lots and lots of parcels to more than 450 addresses. Considering how few cars we had, that is an amazing achievement. There was some hard work hauling parcels by hand over significant distances in the neighbourhood. Special thanks to the Scouts and parents who delivered almost all the hours we were open.
Bruce Trail – Speyside to Limehouse
We were joined by the 3rd Toronto Scouts. We’ll probably start to do a few more outings with them. The weather was pretty bad, but
