Group Camp 2023 2nd October 2023 | By Oliver Gidman | 0 Comments What a weekend! We had 41 young people join us for our group camp this year! The whole camp had an amazing atmosphere! This weekend wouldn’t have been possible without the support from the amazing leaders we had with us. Every leader got stuck in and helped where they could. So on behalf of all the young people, and myself, I want to say a MASSIVE thank you to them. They tried Archery, Angel throwing, Air Rifle shooting, played lots of games and did a lot of being loud and running around! We really hope that all the young people enjoyed their time with us this weekend, here are some photos below from the weekend! Phoebe Woolard – Deputy GSL

We hope you had a great night! 29th January 2023 | By Oliver Gidman | 0 Comments Choosing when to have the Winter Event is not as easy as you may think! 2023 was perfectly timed though, a clear, crisp, DRY, winter evening to come together and celebrate all that’s great at this time of year. Stanford is a wonderful venue, we know walking the lane is a challenge for many but if you make it, it is always worth the effort. Wide games safely played in the dark are exciting, exploring is great fun and excellent hot bbq food and drink. Followed by a walk through the dark to the campfire circle for the warmth and welcome of a fantastic fire with such amazing singing! Then plenty of room to stand back and watch brilliant fireworks. This evening was well received and great fun. An awful lot of work went in all afternoon to set up and a couple of hours to clean and pack away but well worth the effort. Many, many thanks to all the adults and young people who helped make this a special evening to lift the spirits and get us through the cold winter. If you would like to be part of this fantastic team please speak to any of us – as little or as much time as you want to give. Scouts is a very special thing in which to take part.
