As discussed this week, please can you prepare to give a short talk next week on your chosen sport as part of the Sports Enthusiast Badge.  The badge requirements can be found here and are also below.  Your talk should cover:

1. Know the rules and laws of a sport and explain them.
2. Have a good background knowledge of the teams and sports personalities of your chosen sport.
3. Explain what equipment is needed for the sport.
4. Be able to list some major events for the sport of your choice.
5. Give a description of events that you have attended in your chosen sport. If this has not been possible, explain to a leader how you keep up-to-date with your sport.

Dear Parents,

Subs

From next term it will be necessary to raise the weekly subs (subscription fee) that is charged.  The raise has been kept to a minimum and will be as follows:

Beavers: £2.50
Cubs and Scouts: £3.50

Missed weeks will be charged at a reduced fee of £2.00.  If your child misses 3 consecutive meetings their place will be given away to a child on the waiting list, unless otherwise agreed with the section leader.

Subs will still be collected weekly.

Adult Helpers

We are hoping to recruit some volunteer adult helpers for the beaver and scout sections.  Volunteering can be rewarding and gives opportunity for as much or as little commitment as each individual wants.  There are opportunities (though not mandatory) to attend a variety of training courses and to learn new transferable skills that employers often value when presented on a C.V.  If you are interested in volunteering to work with us providing learning and social experiences for the young people please contact our Group Scout Leader (Barbara) or myself.

Thank you,

Peter Colley.
Scout Leader / Scout Executive Committee.
