August 2006 - Report
Yet another term comes to an end with the youth members and families joining
together for a walk and BBQ at Siblyback Lake. The leaders would like to thank
all the people of the Parish of St Neot for the support they give the Group.
To operate the Scout Group we need to raise £ 2,000.00 per year to fund insurance,
Scout membership, equipment, and help towards outings. The Group hold four major
events each year the Plant Sale, Car Treasure Hunt & BBQ, Quiz Night and BBQ
at Carnglaze Caverns Fireworks. Without these we could operate. The Group Executive
and the Leaders who put in a great deal of effort and give their time free run these events.
In August 2007 we have three Scouts going to the 21st World Jamboree to do this
we need to raise £ 3,600.00 on top of the normal funds. We are holding more events
over this period and the monies raise are ring fenced for the jamboree. Publicity
for each event will state what the money is for.
We still need Leaders, youth and committee members if you would like to know more
about Scouting in St. Neot call Nick 01579 320776

part. Thanks to Rose and Alan for a great evening and finding those questions which tax the mind.
