Important notice for Scouts who normally attend on Friday night
Unfortunately due to unavailability of leaders there will not be Troop Nights on Friday on Friday 30th July. We hope that the Scouts who normally attend on Friday will be able to attend the Wednesday meeting this week.
Can we remind everyone please that it is really important to let us know if Scouts are going to be absent from their meeting night on a Wednesday or Friday night. To tell us know either email [email protected] or text 07710113291 before the start of the meeting.
We would prefer that Scouts leave their mobile phone at home when they attend Scout Activities including Wednesday & Friday Night. If Scouts do bring a mobile with them it is their responsibility to keep it safe. Mobiles must not be used during meetings and activities and it must remain out of sight in a bag or secure pocket or similar.
We will be outside for the evening, so please make sure you dress for the weather. Please bring a towel, change of clothes, a sun-hat and a full drinks bottle with you.
