Thursday 7th January - Cubs Tonight

Weather and leader numbers permitting we are hoping to run a Cub meeting tonight. Please do not leave your child until Janice (Kim) confirms that she has enough leaders to run the meeting.

Wednesday 6th Jan - Meetings Cancelled

Please Note: - Tonight's Beaver and Scout meetings are cancelled due to the adverse weather conditions. Apologies for any inconvenience - we'll hopefully see you all next week.

Correction: date should, of course, have read 6th Jan, not 10th Jan. Ooops!

See you in the New Year!

Have a fantastic Christmas everyone! Meetings resume 6/7th January 2010.

Seasons Greetings

Can I take this opportunity to wish all our members and their families a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY, HEALTHY NEW YEAR! from all the Leaders of the Group. Thank you for your support throughout the year. We couldn't do it without you.

Christmas Party

Don't forget the party for Beavers and Cubs is on the 23rd at 5:30 to 6:45. We have music, laughter, snacks and games. See you there.

Scouts FlightSim Sleepover Postponed

Apologies for the short notice, but I'm afraid we're going to have to postpone the Scouts FlightSim Sleepover we were holding this coming weekend due to lack of leaders. We are trying to rearrange for early in the new year so watch this space for details.

A reminder that it's the Panto tomorrow night. Those who have ordered tickets need to arrive at the Academy Theatre in Birdwell from 6.00pm. The show starts at 6.30pm.

If you're not going to the Panto there are no section meetings this week so we'll see you on Sunday morning for the Christingle Church Parade. Meet at 10am. Finish approx 11.45am. Parents are very welcome to stay for the service.

Beavers/Cubs Christmas Party

We will be hosting a party for Beavers and Cubs on WEDS 23rd December. Times are 5:30 to 6:45. Light refreshments will be provided.

CHRISTINGLE SERVICE

The annual Christingle service will be held on Sunday 20th December. This a lively, fun event suitable for all the family. Please meet at the hall at 10am and collect kids from the church approx. 11:45 if you are not staying. Wear full uniform. You might want to bring some money for the collection.

Beavers

Those Beavers who brought their Healthy Eating posters in this week were awarded their badge. You can get yours too when you bring your poster.

PANTO CLASH!

Just to let you know that, as organiser of this outing, I am aware that Oakhill School has arranged a school concert on the same evening. Unfortunately, if you choose not to go to the panto I cannot give you a refund. Sorry.

Beavers

Well Done Beavers - you all received your Global Challenge Badges tonight. Don't forget your homework next week. You have to make a poster about healthy foods and unhealthy foods. You can draw pictures or cut out pictures from magazines (ask Mum first!) or use pictures from a computer. It's for a badge so do your best! Bring it next week and you can get your Healthy Eating badge.

And parents, just in case you are wondering, we have some new Leaders on the Team - Emma, Steve and Lynne - supporting Sara, Emily and me!
