Effective immediately, Scouts Canada in B.C. will not be meeting in person for the time being, said Caitlyn Piton, Scouts Canada Cascadia council commissioner. With a rise in COVID-19 cases across B.C., Scouts has decided the responsible thing to do is to meet virtually.

B次元官网网址淎t this time we cannot set an end date but do hope to return to Stage 2 as soon as possible,B次元官网网址� said Piton. B次元官网网址淎fter much discussion, we have made the decision to move to Stage 1 - virtual Scouting, effective immediately.

B次元官网网址淎lthough the numbers in our regions are lower, Dr. Bonnie Henry has asked Scouts and Guide groups to go back to virtual meetings for the time being.B次元官网网址�

B次元官网网址淚f we can support the efforts of the province over the next two weeks, we hope to be able to return to a higher stage going forward. This is the time we need to stay in our communities and really tighten our bubbles so that we can flatten the curve,B次元官网网址� stated Scouts Canada in an email.

On Thursday, Dr. Henry said there has been an increase in the coronavirus spreading indoors.

Dance, karate, indoor soccer and hockey for kids in the South Okanagan appear to still be carrying on for now.
