Due to the poor weather forecast the Air weekend has been rescheduled for the 23rd/24th of November

Air weekend

weather update on here soon, just after 8pm, estimated odds currently at 50/50

Best laid plans and that....

Tonight we were due to start on Project airfix, I was expecting the stuff last week – but its still not arrived.

I will be in touch with the Airfix people tommorow so instead we have a plan B activity ( something from the programme that we were going to do in November)

 

This means that the Shoeboxes are not required this week.

 

 

 

 

Scouts.....

Scouts the next few weeks:

October 2nd – Walk. Bring a torch and a coat/waterproofs+suitable footwear we may be slightly later finishing at 9:20pm

After that Each Scout needs to bring a shoe box to store airfix stuff in, then after half term – save your conkers as were having a conker night, conkers should be pre drilled as we may not have the facilities to drill holes in them.

 

Scouts this week

Scouts this week

 

Was going to be a walk, but instead the walk will be happening next week.

This Wednesday theres a little challenge – Most, if not all of the Scouts have some hobby, interest play a musical instrument, or take part in other activities. In most cases they can get a badge for those hobbies/interests/activities etc

The plan is for Each Scout this Wednesday to come to Scouts with a badge they can do, or have achieved and can be signed off for, it should work like this:

 

1: go to this webpage and find a badge http://members.scouts.org.uk/supportresources/search/?cat=7,64,172&pg=1 and / or here and chose Swimmer, musician, or IT staged badges http://members.scouts.org.uk/supportresources/search/?cat=7,64,289

 

2: Print off the badge requirements and sign the requirements off ( or ask their instructor/teacher to do so)

 

3: Bring the signed off sheet to Scouts

 

4: I will then order the badges online, and the Scouts will get them on the nearest Wednesday to when they arrive.
