A Golden Sponsor


First Callander Scouting Group marked the 50th anniversary of sponsorship (1957 to 2007) by Royal Canadian Legion Branch #445 Callander by presenting a special plaque to the branch at its general meeting Jan. 3.

The top photo shows, from left: Branch President Don MacDonald, 1st Vice-President Brian Cantin, 1st Callander Commissioner Marten Deforest, and 1st Callander Scouting Special Event Coordinator and R.C.L. Branch #445 Public Relations Officer and Scout Liaison Glen W. Cameron.

The plaque, made by Gerry Voyer, the father of one of the group's scouters, features both the group and the Legion crests and reads: 1957 – 2007, In Recognition of 50 Years of “Sponsorship and Support”, 1st Callander Scouting Group.

Gerry Yoyer, father of Cub Leader Dave Yoyer, cut out and made the wooden plaque blank, the crests and text were added by a local engraving company.
