Transport Gala

Posted on September 10, 2014 by Nigel

Many thanks to all of those that helped on Sunday in selling programmes, clearing up etc. We won’t know how much we raised for a while yet – if you’ve got programme sales monies to bring in please do so ASAP.

Here is a link to a youtube video of the event – some of you feature in the scout HQ.

New Term starts soon…….

Posted on September 3, 2014 by Nigel

Scouts return this Friday 5th September,

Beavers start back on Wednesday 10th September and

Cubs start back on Thursday 11th September.

 

Also don’t forget to come down the HQ this week to collect some programmes to sell in advance of the Transport Gala this Sunday, and to come and help on Saturday morning selling programmes around Hampton as well as on the day itself.

We need help from adults and cubs/scouts/beavers etc to sell programmes on the day between 10am and 5pm. We also need help from the cubs, scouts and adults in helping clean up afterwards – as the saying goes “many hands make light work!!”

 

Thank you
