We'd just like to say a big thank you to everyone who braved the cold to come to our first ever Pumpkin Party over the weekend. We hope you all had a good time.
Thanks to everyone who contributed buns, fireworks, and pies. And to the adult helpers, without whom it wouldn't have been possible.
Watch this space for details of our next event.

Pumpkin Party Update
Our debut Halloween event is only days away!
We don’t want to give away too much of the programme, but here's an idea what to expect:
Please arrive on the Saturday night from 6pm, ready for a 6.30pm start.
The event is completely outdoors, and due to the weather recently, we recommend wearing good outdoor footwear, as it may be wet and muddy. It's also been extremely cold these last few days, so coats (waterproof!), hats, gloves and the like may be desirable. If you can manage all that and fancy dress, there will be a prize for the best costume.
Food will be served around 7.30pm. The menu includes: Pie & Peas, Soup & Roll, plus an assortment of home baking treats. Tea, Coffee and Squash will be on hand to help wash it all down.
After food has been served, parents and guardians will be offered a short break as the Scouts run an activity involving all members the younger sections.
Hopefully, we’ll be capping all this off with a bit of a campfire.
If you would like to bring along some fireworks, we’d be extremely grateful and happy to set them off for you. No sparklers please!
The event will conclude around 9pm.
You should receive your tickets at the section meetings this week, however don’t worry if your child can’t make it – you’ll be given them on the night.
Look forward to seeing you there!
Yours Spookily,
All the Leaders at 36th Barnsley (Ardsley) Air Scout Group

1st November - Pumpkin Party
Over the weekend of 31st October - 2nd November, we're planning some Halloween fun & games at Silverwood Scout Camp, and we hope you'll join us.
On the Saturday evening, 1st November, we're holding a Pumpkin Party. From 6pm there will be some ghostly games and activities for Beavers and Cubs. We'll be putting on some food from about 7.30pm, followed by a campfire. We're aiming to finish around 9pm. This is a family event so you're welcome to bring brothers and sisters, but all children must be accompanied by an adult. We're hoping you'll all make the effort and come in your best spooky outfit. Tickets will be £2.50each or £10 for a family ticket (up to 5 people). Food is included in the ticket price.
Scouts will be camping from Friday night through to Sunday. There will be some Halloween activities on the Friday night just for Scouts, and on the Saturday the Scouts will be helping us set up and run the party. Scouts' Mums and Dads are welcome to join us for the Pumpkin Party on the Saturday night.
Watch out for Booking Forms with more information, coming soon.
