Gordon Shield

2009 information still pending....

In 2009 we tied with 1st Bergvliet and came 11th. Congradulations to James Peart (PL) on this impressive result seeing as there was only 4 people in the patrol.

In 2008 we came 2nd. Congratulations to Marc Borchardt (PL),  James Peart, Jay Benson, Patrick Sellier, Steven Borchardt, Marcel Mulders, Kathryn Peart and Christopher Molteno.

In 2007 we came 3rd.  Congratulations to Andrew Klazinga (PL),  James Peart,  Marc Borchardt, Jay Benson, Douglas Klazinga, Chris Sellier, Ross Grunder and Nicholas Lytwynchuk.

In 2006 we again came 10th.  The team comprised Andrew Klazinga (PL),  Philip Gaag, James Peart, Lyndall Abbott, Tara Weber, Christopher Molteno and Nic Lytwynchuk..

In 2005 we came 10th.  The team comprised Peter Otzen (PL), Andrew Klazinga, Andrew Elston, Marcel Mulders, James Peart, Marc Borchardt and Christopher Molteno.

In 2004 we came 12th at the Gordon Shield. The theme of the competition was Harry Potter.  Congratulations to Nicholas May who was the Patrol Leader and acting in this position for the first time at such a major event.

In 2003 we entered 1 Patrol although normally we have at least two Patrols. The team came 19th which is perhaps not one of the best results the Troop has ever had but the main thing is that the Scouts got experience and "we were there".  Well done to Warren Kane on being the Patrol Leader and battling along with only 7 members in his Patrol

In 2002 we entered 3 Patrols.

The A team came 2nd. Congratulations to Kenneth Crombie (PL) and his Patrol. Our B team came 13th and congratulations to Christopher Schmid (PL). For the first time ever, we entered a Girl Scout Patrol and we came 20th out of 37. Well done to Sarah Enticott and her Patrol.

This competition is always a standing camp and is usually held at Hawequas. The Troop won the Gordon Shield on 2001 and 2000.  We entered two Patrols in 2001 and came 1st and 17th.
