This is a step by step guide for Cub Scout Leaders to follow, in order to register their Packs and anyone else wishing to attend Future Scout Day. It is not to be given to parents to register as individuals. A Pack Registration printout and Group cheque is to be organised and posted to the Port Kembla address not to State HQ.

It is the Cub Scout Leaders responsibility to register their Packs before the closing date and then to organise the A1’s, Bus Registration and payment to Region Office before the next closing date.
