 On Apple Day, youth in full uniform hand out apples for a donation.  We normally congregate on the mall plaza at 6th Ave. and 6th St. and spread out down 6th St. to the mall plaza between the TD Bank and Starbucks.

 Historically, Apple Days were run by the New Westminster District, and later by the Friends of New Westminster Scouting.  After the Friends were disbanded in 2016, Apples Days have been run by the Group.
 ==Things to remember to do before the event:==
-* Request permission from Royal City Shopping Center Ltd. and fill out their “Request for Space Form”.  We ask for the plaza at 6th Ave. and 6th St. and also the plaza at 6th Ave. and 8th St.  The contact there is Mary Burris, mburris@strathallen.com.  They then fill out a “Temporary Tenancy Lease” that needs to be signed by Doug Smith at the Scout Office and a certificate of insurance needs to be provided by Michelle Yu.

 * Once we have the locations secured, apply for  a Solicitation Permit from City and provide financial statement to the City (City Clerk’s office) after the event.  The application can be [https://www.newwestcity.ca/database/files/library/CNW_Public_Solicitation_Application_2015.pdf found on the City's website] or you can get it by contacting Gillian Day at (604) 527-4612, gday@newwestcity.ca.  If the financial statement is not provided, they won’t issue a permit for the next Apple Day.  The application sometimes takes a few weeks so don’t leave it until the last minute.  They mail the permit to us rather than send it by email.
 * Order and pick up apples from JBM Enterprises in Aldergrove at (604) 856-1466.  Historically, they have delivered them to Dave Upham's house.  Lately we have been going through 7-10 boxes of apples.  In fall 2017, we ordered 12 boxes and when through 9 complete boxes.

 * Bring some campfire blankets for display - this always generates discussion.

 * The Sections should get parents to sign up through ScoutsTracker so they know who is coming and when.  It isn't really important to manage this too closely as people come and go through the day and we seem to always have enough people at all times through the day.
 * Consider “thank-you tags” that go over a button, so people don’t get asked multiple times.  These are available from the Scout Shop in packages of 1000.
 * If extra coin cans are needed, they need to be purchased.  In the past, we have purchased cans from [http://www.wellscan.ca/Donation-Cans/ Wells Can] in Burnaby at 8705 Government Street.  The cost was $140 including tax for 100 cans.
-* The Coho area does a bulk buy for apples and cans.  For some reason, we have always bought the apples on our own, but it might be a good idea to get in on the cans part of that.
