I was asked a question by one of my CIs tonight, during a staff meeting. The question was - why do we parade two nights per week, and not one night - like most other youth groups.
To be honest, the question blindsided me, and all I could think of saying was “it’s historical”.
Since the staff meeting, this has now got me thinking - just why do we parade two nights per week? And more importantly, what’s to stop us dropping to one night?
Nothing stopping you as long as your 12 hours a month are covered. Assuming that rule stays extant what with the changes afoot.
That was one of the reasons for two parades a week I guess when Little was done at the weekends. Now there’s a raft of things on people’s calendars doing the minimum is easy peasy
