To Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and Parents,
Well we have got off to a fantastic start to this term! Lots of news for you:
Beavers Sleepover
Beavers are really looking forward to their sleepover on 18th October. Loads of fun anticipated! Bookings now closed.
Summer Camp 2015
We are pleased to announce that for the first time in many years we are planning a Summer Camp in July 2015. This is for Scouts and older Cubs (those due to move up by September 2015). See the presentation on our website: http://www.29thenfield.org.uk/summer-camp-2015/
Group Camp 2015
We will soon be announcing details of a combined weekend camp next year for our Beavers, Cubs and Scouts.Subs
Thank you for paying promptly this term. 99% have now paid, and 90% used the on-line system, so I only have to queue at the bank once! If your subs are outstanding please settle this week.
Church Parade
Church parade Is now only once each 1/2 term (as directed by the consultation process) so I am expecting good support for this please. We are sponsored by the church, so we should show a reasonable presence. The services are Roman Catholic Mass however those of all faiths and none will be made to feel very welcome, and at Communion may stay seated or come forward with arms crossed across their chest for a blessing. The homily (sermon) will usually be addressed to the younger people. I have set your leaders a challenge to encourage good turnout. Please support them! FREE Refreshments are usually served in the hall afterwards.
Next church parade is Remembrance Sunday on 9th November at the 10.30am Mass. We will meet in the Parish Centre at 10.15am sharp.Good turn out please, everyone welcome.

Emails
When emailing me please start a new email with a relevant subject line that relates to your message content rather than replying to this or another unrelated message. This may sound trivial but I receive around 100 emails a month which are organised by subject so I may not see your incoming message mixed with ccs and bounced messages. Also, please, please, please NEVER send your private link to your My.Scout account (the very long coded link) as this would give away access to your account! I have seen several of these sent to me in recent weeks. If you need to forward these messages with a question, please delete the long link before sending. Thank you. 🙂
Fun!
We are having loads!
Thanks for your support,
Peter
