The Scout Association has updated the badge requirements for 2015 and we have switched to this scheme in Stocksfield. (Don’t worry you can still wear old badges and finish any you are working on).

We’ve added details of the new scheme and the publications to support it:

• Beavers
• Cubs
• Scouts

Beavers, Cubs, Scouts and leaders will be joining in the annual Remembrance Sunday celebration on November the 9th, marching in uniform from Stocksfield Station to the War Memorial. Parents are very welcome too! Please wear poppies if you have them.

We will meet in the Railway Station Car Park at 10.30 am, dressed ready to walk to the memorial. We should be back at the car park by about 11.30 am, with refreshments served afterwards at the community centre (SICA).

We hope for an especially large turnout given that this year will mark 100 years since the start of the First World War.

The AGM will now be held at the Scout Hut in Guessburn on Wednesday the 17th September, starting at 7.30 pm.

All members of the Scout Group and their parents are very welcome.
