Hampton Transport Gala – 7th September – keep the date free!!

Below is a link to a youtube video advertising the Hampton Transport Gala which is happening on 7th September.

3rd Hampton is one of the charities that will benefit from the money raised from the souvenir programmes and the group will be fully involved in the event by selling programmes before and at the event and with cubs, scouts and families assisting in the clean up afterwards.

The money raised will be used to enlarge and develop the kitchen at our HQ. The plan is to make the kitchen twice the size and with “proper” catering equipment in there i.e. stainless steel work surfaces, large cooker, etc., etc. – this will mean that we will be able to do some serious catering and hold more events at the HQ.

Watch out for my emails re involvement in the event, we expect all the beavers, cubs and scouts and their families to get involved and help as well as to spread the word and get as many family and friends to come down to what will be a very busy day and to buy the souvenir programmes!!

Scout Master at Arms camp – great way to spend the bank holiday weekend!!

Photos are now in Flickr – but scouts had a great time at Master at Arms Camp working toward their outdoor challenge badge as well as achieving their Master at Arms badge – with some very good air rifle scores!! The winning score was a very impressive 172/200 with most scouts averaging over 30/50 and everyone improving over the weekend.

The scouts also did the majority of their cooking on wood fires (even in a little rain) and worked well in the two patrols – roll on Borough Camp and Summer Camp!!
