UUCUC Chapter of Navigators USA Approved

•

A letter from Tania Madagral and Amber Schultz, team leaders for the new Navigator USA troop forming at UUCUC

We are pleased to announce that our chapter of Navigators USA has been approved. We are now officially Navigator Chapter 278 Urbana-Champaign! 

Here are details about what is to come:

  • We plan to have a regular meeting once per month. Every other month, we will also organize a group activity relating to our group’s goals. These group activities might include going to an art museum, overnight camping, or picking up litter in a park. All Navigators will have a voice about what is important to them as we form our group’s goals.
  • Our next meeting is Sunday, February 16th at 2:30 PM.  We will meet in the Children’s Chapel and work on our cooking badge!
  • Navigators is intended for children 4-17, but all are welcome so please spread the word about the meeting. The more the merrier!  Currently, the group age range is 4 to 12. 
  • All Navigators will need to have a uniform to wear during future meetings and activities. This will include a Navigator shirt and vest for badges. The cost will be $33.50 plus shipping. You may purchase these at https://navigatorsusa.org/store. Alternatively, you can bring a check to the meeting and we will purchase the items as a group, reducing shipping costs. We also have funds to support the cost of the uniform.  Talk to Michele Grove to find out more about supporting the cost of the uniform.
