GOOGLE YOUR UNIT !
A great new tool has been added to the website that should help prospective Scouts find our Ontario District units--Google Maps. The map of Ontario District has markers locating each Scouting unit. Clicking on the marker will identify the unit and give the user information about that unit--meeting time and place as well as contact information. Because this is a work in process, each unit leader needs to check out their unit marker and update the meeting information or optional contact information (name, phone number or email address), by sending it to the webmaster. The map is located on the Join Scouting page. Also remember that if your unit has a website, forward the URL to the webmaster so it may be linked to this site.
