ADD100 CLUB

History

Blue Springs Scout Reserve has been recognized as a premier adult training facility centered on program training, leadership development and specialty courses. Many Scouters and adults have seen the reserve flourish and grow.

A few years ago a campaign to raise funds for the addition of Blue Heron was launched. The program developed was a recognition process known as the "ADD100 CLUB". Adults and Scouters who contributed one hundred dollars or more, were recognized with a special "ADD100 CLUB" award. Over the past twenty years the property and facilities have been improved and upgraded to meet our needs. Most recently the Blue Springs Scout Reserve has met government, insurance and Scouts Canada safety requirements and compliance standards.

Our most recent honour is to be designated a SCENES camp by the World Scouting Organization (June '05).

Today

Our needs change. Today we are focused on serving our youth. Blue Springs Scout Reserve is developing opportunities for our youth to enjoy the outdoors, camping experiences and the programs we have to offer. Together these will help our youth to become the Leaders of tomorrow.

As well the Blue Springs Camp Committee submitted its annual three-year Business and Operation Plan. The plan includes continued use of the Reserve as an adult training, meeting and conference facility.

Tomorrow

Meeting tomorrow's needs is why we are re-introducing the "ADD100 CLUB" as an on-going fundraising initiative. The "ADD100 CLUB" program will help fund program, training and facility requirements that have been identified.

Persons or corporations contributing to the program may do so in progressive steps on an on-going and continued basis. All contributions received shall be tax receipted and recorded from persons/corporations.

Recognition Wall

Blue Springs Scout Reserve has set aside an area to facilitate the Recognition Wall for those who are to be recognized in the program.

Recognition Process

The program will acknowledge all contributions. Program recognition will begin at the ADD100 CLUB level and progress up-wards from there. Example: A person/corporation may contribute any amount, say $25.00. They will receive a tax receipt. Should they continue to contribute three more separate $25.00 donations they shall continue to be acknowledged and receipted and thence recognized once they reach the "ADD100 CLUB" level. They shall receive the "ADD100 CLUB" crest and "ADD100 CLUB" pin; their name shall be added to the Recognition Wall in the appropriate section with coloured plaque.
