Welcome to 2024

Members of CTSA,
Welcome back to 2024.  Over the last 2 months since the AGM, it may appear that things have been slower than usual. That is never truly the case.

• Committees are meeting and making good progress
• We have continued to make improvements and add to the website
• New events are being designed and planned for this year
• The business of the Council continues as new groups approach us, and groups are growing
  ​

​Shortly, our Executive Council will appoint a President to oversee the business side of Scouting, while I will focus on Program, Volunteer development and delivery. Our goals remain the same as always

• Provide a needed and affordable program to communities across this country
• Remain steadfast in the belief of the original goal of Scouting as set out by B-P
• Grow our Association by word of mouth, and community awareness by wearing the uniform with pride

We are moving into a new year with a new Council. I am excited to be part of CTSA, and I hope you all are as well.  It is time to build our enthusiasm, to challenge our groups and to come out of the shadows. Even with the cold and grey months upon us, we need to encourage groups to get outdoors and participate in healthy and safe activities. Help groups to develop active and varied programs that are interesting to our youth and meet the aims and principles of the Association.
