BRUMVENTURE 2008

Brum Venture 2008

Hi All,

Latest pictures from our participation in the Brumventure event, which took place at Pikes Pool, near Bromsgrove.

We entered the largest number Scouts from any one group in the district and we took part in the canoeing, forestry and pioneering badges. Other badges included camp cook and master at arms.

It was a fantastic event and all of the 35 participants received their badges at the end of the weekend.

Brumventure will continue to run every year and it is an excellent opportunity to gain a badge in a short space of time.

Well done to all those who took part!

Hope you enjoy the photo’s!

All the best,

Skip and Adam

Sutton Municipal Charities

Hi All,

Please find attached a copy of the presentation made to Sutton Municipal Charities on Friday 10th October.

Approximately 20 members of the committee gave up their time to see how their generous donations have been used by the group.

They stayed with us for around 45 minutes and showed their interest by asking several positive questions at the end of the presentation.

The committee members appeared to be very satisfied with the work carried out by the group and left offering us plenty of praise and encouragement for the future.

Well done to all those involved in making our group a very successful one.

Sponsored Walk

A fine time was had by all on the sponsored walk in Sutton Park last Tuesday. We started at Boldmere Gate and walked to the Jamboree Stone, where refreshments were provided. We then walked back in the dark, where our torches were put to good use. We had an excellent turnout, despite the threat of rain. Many thanks to all those who attended. Below are some (rather dark) pictures.
