As part of our District St George's Day celebrations - St
George is the Patron Saint of Scouting - you are invited you to a special
George's Day event, which will be held on Sunday 29th April at Wentworth Castle.
This event is for all Beavers, Cubs, Scouts, Explorers and their families.
Arrival is from 11:00am onwards, via the Northern College
Entrance please – you will be directed where to park.
Between 11:00am and 2:45pm it's your chance to enjoy the
gardens and parkland, take part in a treasure hunt, archery, canoe slalom,
crafts, adventure playground and much more...
At 2:45pm we'll make our way up to the castle with the
parade of flags for a short St Georges Day service
The event will finish at 4:00pm, but you're welcome to
continue to enjoy the parklands and gardens until they close at 5:00pm.
We want you to enjoy the day as a family so all are
welcome. Access to the gardens and parking, for which there is normally a charge,
has been arranged for FREE, however if you would like to make a small donation
please come along to the District Tent where you can throw a few coins in a
bucket and pick up information about activities and the various treasure hunts.
Wentworth Castle has a small cafe and a kiosk selling
refreshments, including ice creams, however due to the potential volume of
people attending, we recommend you bring along your own packed lunch and a
drink.
Wentworth Castle is a beautiful and picturesque place; if
you would like more details of what’s on offer or directions please check out

ALL SCOUT MEMBERS SHOULD WEAR UNIFORM
