Kiniya, Nov. 29th

Kiniya means "To give of yourself, to share"

We are celebrating our service project by joining other groups at the Camp Fire Council on Thursday evening, Nov. 29th for a ceremonial. We will sing songs and show the other groups what we made: naptime blankets and pillows to benefit the Bethune Transitional School for Homeless Children.

- Members must wear uniform, blue vests over any outerwear.
- Costume is a beanie hat and scarf, any color.
- Wear closed-toe shoes, long pants and bring a working flashlight. Also, you will probably need your sweatshirt as it will get chilly.
- Meet at the flagpole (in Shiwaka) no later than 5:30 pm
- Family members will then walk straight back to the amphitheater with blankets and folding chairs. Groups will enter during ceremonial.
- Please quiet any electronic devices or cell phones as this is disruptive during the ceremony.

After the ceremony, make sure to head to the Lodge to see the projects that other groups completed.

Members who attend this event will earn the Kiniya patch. These emblems are usually specially handmade by the older Horizon club members.

Any questions, please contact Mrs. Wynne.
