District Camp 2012

admin — Wed, 16 May 2012 15:20:17 +0000

For those of you who had a Cub on our Pack Camp this weekend, I’d like to thank you and them for coming along and, judging by the feedback scores, having a great time! I’d also like to thank whoever booked a 48 hour sunny window in the last 4 weeks of rain!

Now that we have returned from that camp, I am now looking forward to the District camp in a few weeks. So far there are 15 St Nicolas Cubs signed up for District Camp which is on the weekend of 8/9/10 June. The total cost of £35 for the weekend. If you have already paid the £10 deposit, can I please ask for the £25 balance in before next Tuesday (22nd May). We NEED to give our final numbers to District next week.

For those who have not paid a deposit for the camp but now know that your Cub wants to go along, please complete the attached form and return it to me, with the full £35 payment, by next Tuesday. Just ignore the dates and simply return the District element of the form.
I have had a couple of the new Cubs’ mums asking to come along after trying this weekends camp. This is fine, but again I MUST know by next week.

If the full payment is not in by the 22nd May, I’m afraid your Cub might not be able to attend.

Thanks!
The Akelas

Cubs’ Pack Camp

I’d like to thank everyone to came on this weekend’s pack camp at Bentley Copse. Judging by the feedback sheets, the Cubs had a great time and are all ready and raring to go to the District Camp in a few weeks.

While on camp, we invested all of the new Cubs we had with us – see the pictures below.

I’d also like to thank Mike Eagle – the new East Guildford District Commissioner for dropping in on Saturday afternoon and for Geoff Wright for coming over on Sunday morning to run his assessment. Finally, I’d like to thank Malcolm McKee from Ashstead Scouts for staying over and teaching us all a few bushcraft skills.

The time of year has arrived again to enjoy the 2012 AGM – it is at the Scout HQ in Village Way at 8.15pm after the St Nic’s cub meeting. We have a particularly active year and the outlook is even better. If you can get along and meet the team behind our successful Scout Group please do. We could do with a few extra parents on the committee ( who meet just 4 times a year ) to see that we give a balance of programme and activity – not tricky. If you’ve read this well done.
Thanks
Dave Saunders

Don’t forget we are all at Knowle Park Nursing Home this week. We will NOT be at the hut at ALL. See you there with weather appropriate clothing.

Need new camping kit…?

colin.desmond — Wed, 02 May 2012 08:42:14 +0000

For those Cubs coming on either of the camps this term, if they need any new camping kit, please check out Cotswold Camping on Friary Street, Guildford.
Cotswold are the official Scouts Outdoor retailer. If you turn up with your yellow group scarf, you’ll receive a 15% discount!

Also if you want any advise on camp kit, just let me know and I’ll help where I can.

Camp questions

colin.desmond — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 08:32:44 +0000

For the Cubs going on the Pack Camp in 2 weeks, if you or your parents have any questions about Camp – what we’ll be doing, what to take (or not take), or anything else – then I’ll be available at the end of both Cub meetings this week to answer them.

Oh, and if you haven’t returned your form and money, please do so this week!

Colin
