Dont forget for those who are travelling to France there is a Parents meeting next Monday night, it is important that you and at least one Parent attend.

A big THANK YOU to all those who supported the Family Day last Sunday, those who attended, made cakes for sale and those who could not attend yet made a donation, your support is greatly appreciated.

In relation to wet sponges and shaving cream, there are a few, actually, quite a lot of Scouts ( even those that just laughed ) that should remember the old saying ‘ Revenge Is Sweet !!!

Special Interest Badges

Fair play and well done to everyone who earned their Special Interest badges. Good work. Now that you’ve earned them you may as well sew them on to your uniform. This shows where each badge should be positioned :

This pic shows exactly where badges go on your shirt (Special Interest on your right arm)

I’m sure everyone knows exactly how to sew, but just in case, click here for a few tips – How to sew a badge onto your uniform

Gearlist for County Campcraft Competition

Hi all,
Check out the gearlist below for everything you need for the weekend in Bog of the Ring.
Also we are looking for parents to drive us down there at quarter to seven on Friday evening. It’s just a 15 minute drive from Swords so if you could ask your Mam or Dad that would be great. (The busses will be with the cubs for the weekend).
Also we will need picking up at 3pm from Bog of the Ring on Sunday.

Gearlist:
Boots
Raingear (top and bottoms)
Two changes of clothes
Spare jumper
Hat and gloves
Suncream
Full and correct uniform (packed as neatly as possible – if you arrive without full uniform you will be sent home to get it)
Neckerchief and woggle
Eating utensils (Plate, bowl, cup, knife, fork, spoon)
Wash gear
Towel
Ground mat
Sleeping bag
Torch (with spare batteries)
Personal first aid kit (tin with a few plasters and maybe a bandage)
Emergency rations (a pack of biscuits not a full sweet shop)
Water bottle
Pen knife (if your parents allow it)

Hope that sums everything up. If I’m missing anything leave a comment.
Thanks,
The Leaders
