Cooking outdoors next week

Next Wednesday, we’re cooking outdoors - so please encourage your Cubs to think of something healthy they could cook over an open fire in under half an hour!

Also, we’re at a different location, and we’re planning on investing and swimming up all the new people who have been here for four or more weeks.

Rather than post the letter about it all here, if you’ve not seen it, please contact Akela and ask for a copy to be emailled to you!

Activity Hike

Don’t forget that next meeting is the Activity Hike.

Make sure your Cubs are dressed for some time outdoors.

And please stay to help if you can - outdoor activities need lots of adults to ensure safety. If we don’t have enough adults, we can’t do the activity!

Finally, please remember that the Activity Hike will take two hours - so we’ll start at the usual time, but will not finish for two hours!

Cranham Pond visit tonight

Don’t forget that we’re going out to look at the pond this evening.

It’s not been too wet lately, but still, shoes that can get muddy are a must!

Also, we’ll need as many adults as we can get, for safety reasons, as we’re leaving the immediate environs of the hall. Please stay on if you can!

Programme for the second half of the Summer Term

Sorry for the delay in preparing this, as we had to wait for the activity hike to be organised to build everything else around it.

Cubs: Talent Show rehearsal next week

We have the first rehearsal for the Cubs Talent Show next week!

So please encourage your Cubs to think of a skill they’d like to show off on stage - and bring any equipment they’ll need.

If they can’t think of anything, or are paralysed with stagefright, don’t worry - we’ll either organise some together into a group to do something together, find things they can help with in others’ acts, or get them handling other duties at the show itself.

Fire Station

On the 11th of March (the next meeting), Cubs and Scouts will visit Stroud Fire Station for a tour of the facilities!

This should be great fun - but it means a change of meeting time and place:

Please come straight to Stroud Fire Station in Paganhill lane - and here is a map.

Since Cubs and Scouts will all come in together, we’re meeting half an hour after Cubs normally starts (to give people time to get there), which is three quarters of an hour before Scouts normally starts. I can’t write the actual times here, since best practice recommends against publishing precise meeting times and places together. Plan to arrive 5-10 minutes early, of course, to make sure we get everyone together in good time to start and make the best of the visit!

Our tour will last two hours. The fire station have suggested that you can park if you drive around the left hand side of the station - obviously, don’t block the road outside!

Half term next week

There’s no cubs next week, as it’s half term!

However, the week after, we’re having a bonfire at Cranham Scout HQ. So come there rather than the hall, and dress up warm.

No cubs and scouts next week

Sadly, the village hall has been double-booked, so we’re having to cancel next week (the 15th of October).

However, we’ll be back on the 22nd as usual!

Our apologies for the short notice.
