Spiral Scouts Trip to the Jax Zoo Announcements / First Coast Spiral Scouts Date: Aug 14, 2003 - 02:00 PM Well, our first trip with the Scouts was a huge success. Many Thanks to Ackadia, Thom, Kate, Missy, Cat, Mary, Sara, Kristin, Bobby jr. and Julia for a wonderful afternoon at the Zoo. We ha a blast playing with the butterflies, looking at the wide assortment of incredible displays the JaxZoo has, and just hangin' out together. (we got some really good video too! see below) Current updates on the FCSS: As you can see, we've created a new topc and category for Spiral Scout information on the website. We've created a logo to identify the FCSS All the paperwork and background checks are filed for the creation of the First Coast Spiral Scouts troop. We won't be official until the processing is completed and approved. Wade Berlin and Ackadia Seawind are the founding troop leaders. However, we aren't going to let that slow us down. There will be a FCSS information booth at the Jacksonville Pagan Pride Day event, and at each of the other Pagan Pride Day events Ackadia is attending in the next month or so. Wade has created a 2 minute video promoting the FCSS, see it at our PPD booth. We already have regular events planned for the Scouts through the end of next year, including hands on "Mr Wizard" type home chemistry, (Making really cool stuff, like your own "slime", dustless street chalk and paint, and several other cool projects), Leather crafting, and do it yourself video workshops, Trips to Marineland, Seaworld (hey, Wade's a diver.... he like the ocean stuff) and maybe a trip to Universal Studios. As well as regular day trips to Wild adventures, the beach, and some planned weekend camping trips, at least once a month the Scouts will get together for some serious cool stuff. Well, that's all for now, blessings to all, Wade This article comes from Phoenix Phamily - Supporting the Phoenix festivals community http://phoenixfestivals.com/ The URL for this story is: http://phoenixfestivals.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=279
