基本訓練（2013.9.25）

9月21日の「世界平和デー」に向けた投稿募集に対して、カブ隊活動の「カントリー大作戦」を

地域奉仕／地球環境保護としてメッセンジャー・オブ・ピーに投稿しました。

新しい年度が始まり、上進・入隊式の次の活動は、基本訓練です。

午前中は、道に捨てられている空カンを回収する「カントリー大作戦」を行い、基本訓練を行う柏尾川の広場に集まりました。最近は、いろいろのグループが町の清掃を行っているので、回収される空缶の数も年々少なくなっています。

基本訓練は、集合や整列の仕方、隊長への集合報告などを練習します。集合の合図に合わせて、組ごと、U字型、横一列といった形に整列します。最後は、目を閉じて４回「回れ右」を行い、全員が同じ正面方向を向いているかをテストします。

Chairman’s Message

Toby Suzuki, Chairman 

of the Yokohama Group 87

　 　　After working for IBM for 36 years, I finally retired the comapny in October 2007 at the age of 63, and then I joined to Tokai University Educational System as a postretirement job. As I recall, Tokai University established the first Rover Group in the campus about 45 years ago. At that time, my father was a Rover Leader when he was a Chief Professor of the Engineering Faculty of Tokai University. Ｉwas extremely excited to see that Rover Scouting is still active in Tokai Univeresity after 45 years, in consequence of continuous effort of active scout leaders.

　　I also learnt that many of the former Rovers are actively involved in the various fields in the business and financial circles. And I rediscovered and recognized the value of the Scouting. Yes, that’s it, the Scout Movement is the real educational system for the youth with the value of based on the Promise and Law., in order to develop youth who can contribute to the society and take a constructive role. And the ultimate goal is to create peace and better world。The fruit of our efforts will be crowned within 20 and 30 years later. To see young people who will contribute to the society is our true award for our efforts.

　　The Scout Movement started in 1907 in United Kingdom. Last year was the 100 years of cerebration. 40,000 scouts and 200,000 observers from all over the world gathered and hold the 21st World Scout Jamboree in United Kingdom. From Yokohama Group 87 , there were 7 scouts and leaders who have attended the memorable Jamboree. During the Jamboree, we renewed our Promise and Law.at the Sunrise Cewremony at Brown Sea Island in August 1, 2007. I saw many Scouts determine the renew of the Promise and Law by giving in to tears. Scouting is the only movement which continues over one hundred years. This is the claer evidence that Scouting has the real value.

　　 We are now in the New Scouting Century. Now, Twenty years after Yokohama Group 87 giving a part of our membership to Yokohama Group 129. Yokohama Group 87 is constantly growing our membership and last year, we have brought up 12th Fuji Scouts in our group. Yokohama Group 87 received the Class A from the Scout Association of Japan. We are very proud that our Yokohama Group 87 is continuously enriching the quality of scouting.

Introduction of Yokohama Group 87

Toby Suzuki, Chairman 
of the Yokohama Group 87

Overview:

    Yokohama Group 87, Kanagawa Council, Scout Association of Japan, locates at Totsuka Ward in Yokohama City, fifty miles South-West of Tokyo, Japan. Our Scout group is the community based group, based in the surroundings of the Totsuka Railway Station and our home ground of the major Scouting activities is around the outskirt of the Totsuka Ward.

    Our scouts are consisted by girls and boys, young woman and man from the children in the senior class of kinder garden up to College students. Our aim is to educate youth in our community, based on the value system of Scouting Promise and Law, help transition period from childhood to adulthood to become adult who can contribute to the society with the constructive role.  

    Majority of our Scouts are students of Higashi Totsuka Elementary School, Totsuka Elementary School, and Kamikurada Elementary School.
History of the establishment of the Group:

    Our Group’s history began in April 22, 1973, when Yokohama Group 23 wasgiving a part of the members to newly established groups. The members of Cub Scout Troop 7 of Yokohama Group 23 became the Group 87. During the early days, Yokohama Group 87 was a small group, consisted by only one Cub Scout Troop with only 21 Cub Scouts.

     The first Chairman of the Group 87 was Mr. Kazuo Kitahawa (who was th ecub Master of Group 23), and the first Chairman of the IKUSEIKAI (financial support group) was Dr. Takeshi Suzuki, (who was the Rover Scout Advisor of the Group 23), The first member of the Group Leaders was Mr. Takemichi Suzuki (myself). And the first Cub Master was Mr. Akira Sakaguchi.

Establishing the Scout Troop:

    In April, 1975, our long-cherished desire; established the Scout Troop,and Mr. Fujino became the first Scout Master of the Scout Troop. However, The membership of the Scout Section declined to 7, we decided to ask our parent group, Yokohama 23, to take out scout in charge for a while.

   In April, 1979, the membership grew up to 24, I myself became the Scout Master to look out for the Scouts and started full-scale and high standard Scout activities for the Scout Section. In April, 1982, we were able to recruit Mr. John Mackin as our Scout Master who had long experience of Scouting in the United States of America. As a result of his assistance, the Scout Section of our Group 87 became one oft he most excellent scouts in our council

Giving a part of our membership to Group 129:

    In 1983, Mr. Kazuo Kitahara, our Chairman of the Group deceded to retire from his active life and moved to Nagano Prefecture for his oldage. At that time, our total membership grew over 140. Taking that opportunity,we have decided to give a part to the newly established group, Group 129. The Scouts resided north side of the railway transferred to Group 129 and those Scouts resided south side remained in Group 87. I became the Chairman of theGroup 87 of the second generation and Mr. Mutsuo Ariyama, who was a Chairman of Municipal Assembly Council of Yokohama City became the Chairman of IKUSEOKAI.

The Boasting Story of the Group (Part 1):

    During over 30 years of the history of the group, special mention should be made . In April 1, 1986, the first Beaver Scout Section (Trial Troop) was officially approved by the NSO (National Scout Organization). At that period, there was no Pre-Cub Section (Age of first grade and second grade of elementary school) existed in Japan. NSO had been researching the Pre-Cub Section and Three groups were nominated astrial groups, namely, Yokohama Group 87, 23 and 93. Group 87 had recruited one dozen of children from first grade and second grade of elementary school and formed a trial group. Lead by Ms. Reiko Suzuki (Current Venture Scout Leader). After three years of trial, Beaver Scouts were formally established in Japan. The uniform, badges, Advancing Programs, Songs, etc of the current Beaver Scouts were developed during the trial in the group 87.

The Boasting Story of the Group (Part 2):

    Group 87 has been continuously raised Fuji Scout, the highest rank of the advancement in the Scouting in Japan. Which is equivalent to “Queen’s Scout” in England and “Eagle Scout” in Boy Scout of America. The ultimate goal of the Scouting is to educate youth to the adult who can contribute to the society in the constructive role. All the scouting activities and programs are designed to achieve this goal, which is to become “Fuji Scout”. In reality, it is not easy task to educate “Fuji Scout”. The clear evidence is that there are very few group in Japan who can educate “Fuji Scout” more than two digits. All our leaders are very much proud of these facts.
