New Badge

Last Tuesday the Beavers received their imagination badge. To achieve this the beavers all made a door-handle-hanger and produced a Beaver story, they also did many other creative and imaginative activities! Well done to all the beavers who completed this Badge!

Fish!

I have added a new sidebar gadget 'fish' move your mouse over the pond and the fish will follow, click and you can also feed them! This activity is surprisingly relaxing.

Ps. These fish need feeding everyday.

Bowling Night at Barnsley Bowl
Tonight (Tuesday 14th July) Cubs, Scouts and older children (Leaders) had a very good night at Barnsley Bowl. There were many stars that shone tonight. Winners of the lanes were (children) Devin (100),Stephen and Matthew M. (60), Matthew P. (101), Sam (96), Taylor (114). Everybody played really well and encouraged each other. We had some laughs and cheers, spares and strikes.Even many leaders scored a strike. The meal was good too, well worth the money and to finish it all off we had an icecream. The Cubs and Scouts behaviour was brilliant, WELL DONE.
Akela and Baloo forgot how enjoyable bowling was, we can't wait to go again.
Have a good summer, see you in September.

Group's Annual General Meeting

Our Chairman, John Lowrie, commented that it was great to see some parents taking the trouble to come along to our Annual General Meeting on 30 June. We now have a few more people on our Executive and we can start in earnest to do some much needed fundraising. We have just learnt for instance that our rent to use the Church Hall, will double within the next 6 months.
The reports from the Sections made good listening and it's clear that the Group is thriving. We have some new leaders and helpers and we can now really start to do the activities and events that your child will benefit from. Additional help is always needed and if you feel that you can offer, then speak to one of the Leaders.
Let's work together to make Darfield Scout Group the best in the area.
