Shelterbox Update

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 21:50:07 +0000

Last year the Cubs worked very hard and fundraised an enormous amount of money to send to Shelterbox. I have just heard that our money has gone towards several boxes which have been deployed.

Box number 4653 one of 1,600 boxes sent to Columbia where they were experiencing flooding which destroyed 400,000 homes.

8,768 boxes were sent to Pakistan including box no. 4831, again where flooding has taken place.

and most recently, box no 4715 has been sent to Libya to aid those victims of conflict, including school equipment.

Well done everyone.

St George’s Day Parade

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi — Fri, 20 May 2011 15:59:55 +0000

We had great weather for this years St George’s Day Parade and service. This year we have taken over as Duty Group for the district, which means that next years event will be down to us! We only have pictures of the Cubs (if you have any more please e-mail them if you are happy for them to appear on-line) but we had members of all sections attend.

On the move – if you look carefully, you can see the marching band the Spitfires, the 14th Eastleigh. which is a Scout and Guide band open to all.

Winchester Walk

Rikki-Tikki-Tavi — Fri, 20 May 2011 15:45:09 +0000

Winchester Walk is a sponsored walk held each year by the Rotary for the benefit of a local charity. This year, the Scouts will be the beneficiaries and the money raised will go towards building a new toilet block at Pinsent.

All routes start and end at Winchester Cathedral on Sunday 12th June 2011.

Trekker: 11 miles Strider: 6 miles Stroller: 1.5 miles

At the end there will be a finish line party, with a BBQ run by the Army, and other fete activities.

What’s our involvement?

Obviously we would like this event to be huge, to raise a lot of money. You, and anyone else you can persuade can register to walk as a group, or as individuals. There is a registration fee, and all are encouraged to get sponsored as well. If your section is going to walk as Scouts/Cubs/Beavers, then we need to register in another way through the leaders, but if your family/friends/co-workers are planning to go as a group then register in the general way.

The 12th leaders are also responsible for running one of the fete stalls, so come and say hello at the finish line!
